Researchers have identified an enigmatic cosmic system that might contain an object bridging the gap between neutron stars and black holes, challenging existing astrophysical classifications…
Artist’s concept of a black hole. This representation includes a disk of overheated material that is being pulled by the gravitational field, and also the…
Illustration of a tidal disruption event (TDE). A new study by MIT researchers using infrared data has uncovered 18 tidal disruption events in diverse galaxies,…
The James Webb Space Telescope’s NIRCam has revealed small, faint galaxies merging with larger ones in the early Universe, solving the mystery of detected hydrogen…
Research on supermassive black holes (SMBHs) has advanced with the observation of tidal disruption events (TDEs), where stars are destroyed by SMBHs. The CN22 model…
By using groundbreaking simulations, the study explores Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs), where stars are torn apart by black holes. This research has revealed a new…
Researchers are exploring the elusive intermediate-mass black holes, theorized to bridge stellar and supermassive black holes. Simulations suggest formation pathways in dense star clusters, but…
Researchers, using the James Webb Space Telescope, have discovered the oldest known black hole, challenging existing theories about black hole formation. This discovery, considered a…
Astronomers have discovered a new way to analyze active black holes, revealing that their microwave and X-ray emissions are similar across different consumption rates. This…
Groundbreaking observations by a Cornell-led team reveal repeated energetic flares from a stellar corpse following a star’s explosion, challenging existing theories about stellar deaths and…
This artist’s impression shows how hot, brilliant and high-mass stars evolve. The more massive brighter star expands first, until the outer layers start to strongly…
An international research team suggests that “Hawking stars,” stars with central primordial black holes, could mimic normal stars and aid in exploring dark matter and…
Northwestern University researchers have developed simulations showing that long gamma-ray bursts, previously thought to be exclusive to massive star collapses, can also occur from neutron…
