Black holes might all have hearts of pure darkness, but many cloak themselves in rings of fire that blaze like little else in ...

Black holes that have been obscured by clouds of dust still emit infrared light, enabling astronomers to spot them for the ...

Collaboration has achieved the highest-resolution Earth-based observations to date, detecting light at 345 GHz from the ...

In our study published on October 21, 2024, in the journal Physical Review Letters, we predict the existence of a new type of black hole that would be surrounded by rings similar in shape to those of ...

A new analysis of M87*, the first black hole imaged by humanity, has revealed turbulence in the matter around it, which this ...

First Step on the Way to a Video of the Black Hole In 2019, the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration made history by ...

The M87* black hole exhibits chaotic gas flow and plasma ring dynamics, offering new insights into black hole physics.

What exists at the core of a black hole? A research team led by Enrico Rinaldi, a physicist at the University of Michigan, ...

Collaboration published the first image of a black hole, of M87* from the center of the galaxy M87. The measurement data on which the image was based was obtained in 2017. The EHT Collaboration has ...

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 ...

It showed a glowing ring the shape of a donut, enclosing an eerie dark spot. It confirmed that black holes, these mind-boggling hotspots of gravity so potent that not even light can escape from ...

But not all black holes have a bright visible ring, so finding them takes a bit more creativity. Astronomers believe there are billions, or perhaps even trillions, of supermassive black holes ...
