Mathematical quirks of our universe have led some cosmologists wonder whether the cosmos was actually born in a black hole.

New research suggests that there is a 90% chance that within the next decade, humanity could use a space or Earth-based ...

Physicists predict a 90 percent chance of witnessing a primordial black hole explosion this decade, testing Hawking’s most ...

On September 14, 2015, a signal arrived on Earth, carrying information about a pair of remote black holes that had spiraled ...

Scientists ultimately settled on a feeding black hole at the heart of a far-distant galaxy as the most likely engine for 3C ...

Researchers have spent 10 years improving the massive detectors they use to catch shockwaves from colliding black holes, and ...

Ten years after the first gravitational wave detection, a new suite of instruments has captured distinctive ringing signals ...

When black holes collide, they release gravitational waves. The waves contain information on the collision. If one black hole is much heavier, the waves vary with the observation angle.

A decade ago, scientists first detected ripples in the fabric of space-time, called gravitational waves, from the collision ...

Primordial black holes are hypothetical black holes thought to have formed moments after the Big Bang. Because they ...

New research published this week confirms Stephen Hawking's 1971 theory that the surface area of black holes never shrinks, ...

Ten years after scientists first detected gravitational waves emerging from two colliding black holes, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA ...
