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 ...

A team of scientists is proposing a bold alternative to the Big Bang theory, suggesting that our universe may have formed ...

A new quantum recipe for black holes could be the first step toward a theory of "quantum gravity", the "holy grail" of ...

The most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is comprehensible,” Albert Einstein once pondered. But even as ...

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.
