Scientists have found a massive black hole that is "napping" after stuffing itself with too much food in perhaps what is the ...
This study presents a valuable finding regarding the role of Arp2/3 and the actin nucleators N-WASP and WAVE complexes in myoblast fusion. The data presented is convincing, but it is suggested to ...
The energetic streams are together 23 million light-years in length—roughly as long as 140 Milky Way galaxies lined end to end Shi En Kim The black hole, if confirmed, is in the star cluster ...
When you think of the mysteries of the universe, it’s hard not to think of black holes. Despite even going so far as to capture an image of a black hole, there’s still a lot that we don’t ...
Astronomers have discovered a rare pair of supermassive black holes exhibiting an unprecedented feeding pattern. The black holes, located a billion light-years away, are consuming a massive gas ...
G. Hdepohl/ESO At the centre of the Milky Way is a supermassive black hole called Sagittarius A*. It is roughly 27,000 light years from Earth and 23.5 million kilometres in diameter. In a world ...
The supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way galaxy is associated with wanton destruction, but a recent discovery throws that assumption into question. A team of international ...
A massive black hole appears to have eaten so much that it fell asleep, scientists have said. It swallowed so much of the mass from its surrounding galaxy that it has gone dormant, researchers said.
Astronomers have observed a binary star system orbiting near the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy. The discovery of Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), published Tuesday in ...
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.
An artist's impression of a black hole in the early universe. Illustration: Jiarong Gu Gas: It’s what’s for dinner. At least that was the case for a black hole in the early universe ...
