"We want to understand how these galaxies are forming stars, how many stars they’re forming, and especially how the black ...

Intriguingly, ultralight dark matter might be able to turn into photons (light) — and it's through this process that the ...

Prepare for a potentially catastrophic event: a black hole forming within the CERN facility. The character traits that might ...

No explosive birth needed: The discovery suggests this black hole likely formed through direct collapse, a quiet implosion ...

A new paper proposed by the researchers has said that dark matter may have contributed to the formation of giant black holes ...

Webb detected rare neon gas in M83. This may signal a hidden black hole, challenging the idea that the galaxy has only ...

skipping the formation of stars altogether and going straight to black hole formation. But collapsing clouds of gas tend to form molecular hydrogen, which is very efficient at cooling the gas.

Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have discovered evidence that suggests the presence of a long-sought supermassive black hole at the heart of the nearby spiral galaxy ...

A team of researchers has engineered a groundbreaking optical device that mimics the physics of black holes and their ...

The star's shattered material becomes a stream that spins rapidly around the black hole, forming what is called an accretion disk that is gradually swallowed. But black holes can also go through ...

Simulations of highly magnetized stars that explode and collapse into black holes show that they transfer their magnetic fields to the disk of swirling matter that forms around the new black hole.
