A "missing link" black hole in Omega Centauri is still missing. What appeared to be an intermediate-mass black hole was a cluster of stellar-mass black holes. New research may have delivered bad ...

NASA's X-ray space telescope Chandra spotted the cosmic collision from the supermassive black hole at the heart of the galaxy Centaurus A. Astronomers using NASA's Chandra X-ray space telescope ...

The black hole is so enormous that it makes up roughly 40% of the total mass of its host galaxy: in comparison, most black holes in the local universe are roughly 0.1% of their host galaxy mass.

"How and where particles are accelerated in the jets of supermassive black holes has been a long-standing mystery." In 2018, it was revealed that a pioneering telescope the size of Earth had taken ...

Analysis of the mysterious GW190521 signal The team applied this technique to the mysterious gravitational-wave signal GW190521, which involves a black hole that falls in the forbidden mass gap ...
