Black holes are invisible, yet they are among the brightest things in the universe. If a star wanders too close to a black hole, it gets torn apart in a fireworks show called a tidal disruption event.

Schwarzschild black holes, named after German physicist Karl Schwarzschild, have no rotation or electric field. Also known as quasi-normal modes (QNMs), they are also hypothetical. Researchers defined ...

It’s the largest black hole jet we’ve discovered to date. What makes this particular jet so exciting for astronomers is not only its size. It’s also estimated to be 1.2 billion years old.

Three supermassive black holes are gobbling up stars 10 times the size of the sun. Shredding them is creating the biggest explosions since the dawn of the universe.

A team of astronomers led by Michael Janssen (Radboud University, The Netherlands) has trained a neural network with millions of synthetic black hole data sets. Based on the network and data from ...

In 2022, they presented the image of the black hole at the center of our Milky Way, Sagittarius A*. However, the data behind the images still contained a wealth of hard-to-crack information.

Why black holes explode stars. Supernova explosions cannot account for the energies involved. Even the mightiest supernova releases only a fraction of an ENT’s light. Ordinary black hole feeding ...

Astronomers Claim the Big Bang May Have Taken Place Inside a Black Hole. Was the “Big Bang” a cosmic rebound? New study suggests the Universe may have started inside a giant black hole.

Astronomers have announced the discovery of Extreme Nuclear Transients, slow-motion cosmic blasts brighter than 100 supernovae caused by massive stars near black holes.

A new theory published in the journal Physical Review D proposes that the universe may have originated from a massive black hole rather than the Big Bang. The idea, called the "black hole universe ...

As we know, black holes are able to grow thanks to their voracious consumption of matter — a process called accretion. After looking at the massive energy budget of ENTs and their distinct appearance, ...
