Recent studies have shown that our entire solar system may serve as a gigantic PBH detector, with these little black holes leaving their faint but very possibly detectable ...

"This is the first solid evidence that helical magnetic fields can explain astrophysical jets at different scales." ...

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

If a star orbits a black hole, it will appear from a distance to be orbiting empty space. Gaia projects the star’s orbit on a ...

The team has estimated the central supermassive black hole mass is about 3 million solar masses. This makes it slightly less massive than the Milky Way's supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* ...

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

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 ...

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 ...

(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 ...
