A black hole infamous for strange features has once again baffled astronomers, this time with rapid X-ray flashes. What could they be?
Scientists used changes in the supermassive black hole M87*'s accretion disk to infer its orientation, size and turbulence ...
Twin jets erupt from a supermassive black hole in Draco, offering new insights into black hole activity and evolution.
Collaboration has achieved the highest-resolution Earth-based observations to date, detecting light at 345 GHz from the ...
Black holes themselves emit no light, but the supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies are often surrounded by huge clouds of material. It's this material, heated by friction and gravity as ...
Observations from NASA's Chandra X-ray telescope and the VLT have revealed jets blasting from supermassive black holes cause ...
After decades of study, scientists sound genuinely optimistic about the possibility of detecting primordial black holes, which might explain dark matter.
A new analysis of M87*, the first black hole imaged by humanity, has revealed turbulence in the matter around it, which this ...
The James Webb Space Telescope has captured a mid-infrared picture of Sagittarius A*, filling in a long-standing gap in observations..
Among these findings is the potential detection of an intermediate black hole near Sagittarius A*, bridging the gap between stellar-mass and supermassive black holes. The James Webb Space ...
The black hole, with an official name of 1ES 1927+654, is located in the distant constellation Draco. Astronomers have been monitoring the black hole for years, primarily since 2018 when the mass ...
A cosmic mystery surrounding a black hole some 270 million light-years from the Milky Way is deepening. Now, the black hole has once again demonstrated strange features that teams of astronomers ...
