Figure 1. At the center of a quasar, a black hole is surrounded by a spinning accretion disk composed of dust and gas, and there…
What researchers have done is apply the theory of the holographic principle to black holes. In this way, their mysterious thermodynamic properties have become more…
A new, Yale-led study shows that some supermassive black holes actually thrive under pressure. It has been known for some time that when distant galaxies…

This artist’s impression shows the orbits of the objects in the HR 6819 triple system. This system is made up of an inner binary with…
An artist’s impression of two black holes about to collide and merge. Gravitational-wave astronomy provides a unique new way to study the expansion history of…
This image shows two massive black holes in the OJ 287 galaxy. The smaller black hole orbits the larger one, which is also surrounded by…
Astronomers may have discovered a new kind of survival story: a star that had a brush with a giant black hole and lived to tell…
