Discover how researchers found a bizarre black hole feeding at an exceptional rate, challenging theories on black hole growth ...
Early data of “little red dots,” or LRDs, from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) appeared to suggest the presence of ...
The team analysed 19 galaxies in the Spiderweb protocluster, located 11 billion light-years away. Eight of these galaxies host active supermassive black holes and exhibit little to no star formation.
The study revealed that many black holes spin faster than expected, suggesting they formed primarily through the smooth ...
Supernovae are one of the most useful events in all of astronomy. Scientists can directly measure their power, their spin, ...
Astronomers are very familiar with the twin jets launched from the poles of supermassive black holes. These structures can ...
In an article published in Physical Review Letters on Thursday, scientists carried out an innovative study testing the existence of mirror asymmetries in our universe by studying the handedness of the ...
For the first time, astronomers have traced a fast radio burst (FRB)—an immensely powerful yet fleeting cosmic signal—to the outskirts of a massive elliptical galaxy located two billion light-years ...
