Using data from NASA’s Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, astronomers are piecing together the evolution of supermassive black holes. How do you grow a supermassive black…
New research shows the similarities that neutron stars have with black holes. For astrophysicists, neutron stars are extremely complex astronomical objects. Research conducted with the…
Using ten years’ worth of optical, infrared, and X-ray data on LMC X-3, astronomers developed a model that can successfully explain the workings of an…
An international team of astronomers has viewed a dense disk and a bright funnel at the center of the Circinus galaxy. A research team led…
Using data from Chandra and XMM-Newton, astronomers directly measured the spin of a supermassive black hole in a quasar that is located 6 billion light…
Using multiple telescopes, researchers from the International Center for Radio Astronomy Research have discovered a new super-powered small black hole. A team of Australian and…
Using the VERITAS gamma-ray telescope, astronomers studied a mysterious VHE gamma-ray source from the constellation of Cygnus that has no known counterpart at other wavelengths….
A newly completed statistical study of the optical and infrared properties of 330,811 galaxies traces the evolution of galaxies that host massive black holes. Our…
Using RXTE satellite data, researchers have revealed a dozen instances where X-ray signals from active galaxies dimmed as a result of a cloud of gas…
A newly published study details what happens during the destruction of a star as it falls into a black hole, explaining why observers might fail…
Astrophysicists re-create and explain nearly all the components seen in the X-ray spectra of stellar-mass black holes. Black holes may be dark, but the areas…
A new theoretical paper from researchers at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics finds there is a way in principle to make a black hole with…
Using archived data, astronomers have put together a new Chandra image of Centaurus A and new results on the black holes and neutron stars in…
A newly published study reveals that the early universe “warmed up” later than previously thought. A new study from Tel Aviv University reveals that black…
Astronomers used the Subaru Telescope to study active supermassive black holes in merging galaxies, revealing that local physical conditions near SMBHs rather than general properties…
Astronomers reveal one of the most powerful black holes known. Located in the center of galaxy cluster RX J1532.9+3021, the black hole is 3.9 billion…
Physicists around the world are currently focused on the commissioning of three enormous supersensitive detectors that will aid in the discovery of gravitational waves tenfold…
