Physicists propose that high-energy photon jets from collapsing stars may be secret factories of heavy elements like ...

In a baffling cosmic mystery, astronomers have reported a star that appeared to vanish without a trace. One night it was there, shining bright—and the next, it was gone. No explosion, no fading, no ...

"The creation of heavy elements such as uranium and plutonium necessitates extreme conditions," said physicist Matthew ...

A newly published study in The Astrophysical Journal has revealed the presence of a previously undetected supermassive black ...

Scientists have uncovered the strongest evidence yet for the existence of elusive intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs), long thought to be the missing link between stellar-mass and supermassive black ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have peered into galaxies that existed at cosmic noon to hunt ravenously ...

Scientists have been left stunned after stumbling across a lone black hole drifting through space. It's not every day ...

Astronomers confirm a wandering black hole in our galaxy’s Sagittarius region using Hubble and Gaia microlensing data.

Jets influence star formation, distribute energy across vast distances, and serve as cosmic beacons for locating distant black holes. Additionally, they provide insights into the fundamental ...

Since black holes absorb any light that falls into them, the only sign of their ... because the chances of them lining up with a large star are so slim. Black holes are the ultra-dense remains ...

After two black holes collide, the merged black hole settles into this Kerr state, sending out gravitational waves during the process known as the "ringdown." The gravitational waves from the ...

Scientists have discovered key conditions needed for a stellar black hole to create plasma jets. Their findings show that when superheated gas material experiences a rapid shrinkage towards the black ...
