After decades of searching, astronomers have imaged two supermassive black holes in orbit around each other at the heart of quasar OJ287.

The images of the two cosmic beasts, locked in orbit around each other, prove that such binary systems exist.

Scientists have shot two black holes orbiting each other, offering the first ever definitive proof that these intergalactic voids come in pairs, per a new study published in the Astrophysical Journal.

Astronomers spotted the celestial standoff in the heart of the galaxy OJ287, around five billion light-years from Earth.

There are several ways of looking at the Rachel Reeves likely black hole of £20-40 bn in the next budget, the sum she will be told to raise in extra taxes assuming she is unable to restrain extra spending. Very simply it is the direct…

Gravitational waves are energy-carrying waves produced by the acceleration or disturbance of massive objects. These waves, which were first directly observed in 2015, are known to be produced during various cosmological phenomena,…

Observations by a system of radio telescopes have offered the first visual evidence for the existence of black hole pairs. But vital follow-up observations are needed before we know for sure.

Astronomers studying the supermassive black hole M87*, a behemoth six and a half billion times the mass of the Sun, have uncovered a new way these cosmic monsters unleash their power. Using cutting-edge simulations, scientists at Goethe…

Powerful math method reveals new insights into how black holes vibrate after merging.

Using JWST and ALMA data, astronomers have spotted a superlong and narrow 'galactic contrail,' possibly produced by a black hole. The gas- and dust-rich tail is 20,000 light-years long but just 650 light-years wide.

'It is difficult when most of it is around demand and increased demand'

Scientists have simulated how M87*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy M87, powers its immense particle jet. The Frankfurt team’s FPIC code shows that magnetic reconnection, where magnetic field lines snap and reform,…

Joshua Zirkzee's frustration with his current situation at Manchester United has reached a point where he is looking for an exit route in January.

At the center of the massive galaxy M87 lies the supermassive black hole M87*, weighing six and a half billion times the mass of the Sun and spinning rapidly on its axis. From this powerhouse, an enormous jet of charged particles blasts…

Black have no hair, but the material surrounding them does, and the two can interact in unusual ways. As observations from the Event Horizon Telescope show, the magnetic fields surrounding a black hole can change extremely fast.

The partnership had confirmed that it has invited huge swathes of the workforce to consider a voluntary severance.

Theoretical astrophysicists have developed a numerical code to describe with high mathematical precision how black holes transform their rotational energy into ultra-fast jets.

Scientists may have finally uncovered the mystery behind ultra-high-energy cosmic rays — the most powerful particles known in the universe. A team from NTNU suggests that colossal winds from supermassive black holes could be accelerating…
