New research is shedding light on what researchers call "lite" intermediate-mass black holes, which are smaller, but still ...

A new study has been accepted by the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics that proposes two new models of black ...

Gravitational waves stretch and squeeze the fabric of space and time itself. When space/time is squeezed, pulsar pulses ...

"We would need to consider the possibility that the source was created (or trapped as a primordial black hole) by a highly ...

"This work is a step toward understanding how quantum mechanics and gravity work together, a major unsolved problem in ...

Black holes are expected to be the last giant objects left in the universe, but even they will slowly shrink and disappear ...

Chandra X-ray Observatory observations of the Perseus galaxy cluster's black hole and M87's jet have been turned into sound by SYSTEM Sounds. The Chandra team explains how it was done.

If you buy through a BGR link, we may earn an affiliate commission, helping support our expert product labs. Supermassive black holes are some of the densest objects found within our universe ...

At the heart of a black hole lies what’s called a “singularity” — a point where our laws of physics break down, and gravity becomes infinite. But the defining edge of a black hole is the event horizon ...

A few, however, carry extreme energy: more than a million times what particle accelerators on Earth can produce. A new study suggests that those monsters are born in the churning magnetic fields of ...

A powerful new technique is poised to revolutionize how astronomers observe black holes, by producing sharp, multicolored ...

An artist’s impression of a tidal disruption event, in which a star is spaghettified and the remains form an accretion disk around the black hole. Typically, about half the star’s mass is drawn into ...
