5 days ago · Quasars, the brightest objects in the cosmos, could act as cosmic signposts, directing astronomers to elusive pairs of supermassive black holes. Though scientists are aware that supermassive black ...
Jul 4, 2024 · Surprisingly unspectacular: Black hole already weighed over a billion solar masses in the early universe despite average appetite. Peering into the early stages of the 13.8 billion-year-old universe, the James Webb Space Telescope has spotted a galaxy as it existed just 700 million years after the Big Bang. It is puzzling how the black hole at ...
Jul 4, 2024 · Astrophysicists have discovered an unusual outburst phase of a black hole binary source Swift J1727.8-1613 1. It emitted X-rays with quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) while sucking in matter from ...
6 days ago · While disks around supermassive black holes have been imaged previously—the Event Horizon Telescope imaged disks circling black holes at the heart of our own galaxy in 2022 and Messier 87 in ...
Jul 5, 2024 · Black holes are among the most studied but least understood cosmic phenomena for astrophysicists. While not technically a “hole,” these objects derive their name from the fact that nothing, including light, can escape the grasp of their immense gravitational field.
Jul 4, 2024 · After analyzing observations of the dusty objects, an international team of researchers, led by astrophysicist Florian Peißker of the University of Cologne, have identified these clumps as...
