These collapse directly into black holes, and they start off at something like 100,000 times the mass of the sun, that makes ...

Earlier this year, new research suggested a potential solution to one of the most troubling aspects of modern physics — that ...

"This work is a step toward understanding how quantum mechanics and gravity work together, a major unsolved problem in ...

A new study has been accepted by the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics that proposes two new models of black ...

Black holes are invisible, yet they are among the brightest things in the universe. If a star wanders too close to a black hole, it gets torn apart in a fireworks show called a tidal disruption ...

This model does more than fix technical problems with standard cosmology. It could also shed new light on other deep mysteries in our understanding of the early universe—such as the origin of ...

Astronomers used AI and high-throughput computing to analyse Event Horizon Telescope data on black holes. Sagittarius A* is spinning near top speed with its rotation axis pointing towards Earth ...

That’s right: You could be living inside a black hole. This bold claim comes from a paper led by professor Enrique Gaztanaga of the Institute of Cosmos Sciences in Barcelona published in ...

Using a neural network trained with simulations of supermassive black holes, astronomers have found that the one at the center of the Milky Way, Sagittarius A*, likely rotates at maximum speed.

These elusive objects, called intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs), are thought to weigh between 100 and 100,000 times the mass of the sun. They could be the missing link in understanding how ...
