Observations from the James Webb Space Telescope reveal monster black holes in the early universe that seem to have grown too ...

A new form of black hole archeology, linking spin to gas and dust, has revealed that these cosmic titans spin faster than ...

A new study shows that black holes consume gas which creates an outburst that cools nearby gas for the black hole to consume ...

Supermassive black holes are seen as sources of wanton cosmic destruction, but there may be more to their powerful influence ...

Supermassive black holes can fuel their own growth by cooling and recycling gas, creating a continuous cycle of feeding and ...

Jets blasting from supermassive black holes cause gas to cool and fall toward that cosmic titan in a cosmic feeding process.

Scientists used changes in the supermassive black hole M87*'s accretion disk to infer its orientation, size and turbulence ...

By unleashing powerful jets, or outbursts, the black holes kickstart a process to cool hot gas and form warm filaments that allow for the – let's say – now-edible gas to flow back into the ...

Such supermassive black holes generate emissions that, in turn, directly regulate the cooling of the hot gas present in the galaxy clusters. This cooling process helps form warm filaments of gas ...

After decades of study, scientists sound genuinely optimistic about the possibility of detecting primordial black holes, which might explain dark matter.

Supermassive black holes are often regarded as sources of wanton cosmic destruction, but there may be more to their powerful influence than first meets the eye. Researchers studied data from the ...

Data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory reveals that black holes can cool gas to the proper temperature for a cosmic feast.
