Black holes and soccer balls don't have much in common, but if black holes are curved when kicked, it might say something ...
Image of the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*). from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration "has uncovered strong and organised magnetic fields spiralling from its edge," ...
Scientists have published a spectacular new polarised light image of the strong magnetic fields spiraling from the edge of the black hole at the center of our galaxy. Seen in polarised light for ...
"Interestingly, the quasar powering this massive radio jet does not have an extreme black hole mass compared to other quasars ...
Hypervelocity stars (HVSs) were first theorized to exist in the late 1980s. In 2005, the first discoveries were confirmed.
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 ...
Researchers said on Thursday that they had discovered twin-lobed radio jets they suspect were formed when the universe was ...
An artist's concept of the supermassive black hole's mid-infrared flare. Image: CfA/Mel Weiss Astronomers have detected a mid-infrared flare from the supermassive black hole at the heart of the ...
"Our measurements imply that the supermassive black hole mass is 10% of the stellar mass in the galaxies we studied." Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have discovered ...
Rapid X-ray oscillations detected near the innermost orbit of a supermassive black hole could indicate the presence of a nearby orbiter such as a white dwarf ...
The universe could be home to far more supermassive black holes than we realised, according to new research. Many of them are hidden beyond our view, the researchers suggest – which might mean ...
The dense stellar remnant would, if confirmed, be the closest known object to any black hole, according to preliminary research Sara Hashemi The energetic streams are together 23 million light ...
