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

(via PBS Space Time) Dark matter has eluded us for many decades. Even our most advanced particle colliders and sophisticated underground detectors have come up short. But it may be that we can finally ...

Our home planet is bombarded with particles from outer space all the time. And while we are mostly familiar with the rocky ...

Scientists discover low-mass microquasars can accelerate cosmic rays, reshaping theories on high-energy particle origins.

Researchers found for the first time evidence that even microquasars containing a low-mass star are efficient particle accelerators, which leads to a significant impact on the interpretation of the ...

In contrast, the supermassive black hole itself is on the order of 1 million solar masses ... The team plans to continue observing the system, with existing and future telescopes, to better ...

NASA created a haunting audio clip of sound waves rippling out of a supermassive black hole, located 250 million light-years away. The black hole is at the center of the Perseus cluster of galaxies, ...

However, 720 days later, while Hinkle and collaborators were following up on this event with ASAS-SN, the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), and the Asteroid Terrestrial Impact Last Alert System ...

Researchers in South Korea are developing a constellation of satellites that could reveal what goes on in the vicinity of supermassive black holes like never before. The constellation, dubbed ...

A massive coronal hole has opened on the sun, sending high-speed solar wind toward Earth and increasing aurora activity.
