In the blink of an eye after the Big Bang, the universe could have birthed strange new stars and black holes.

A new study suggests that during a potential phase of primordial matter domination, particle interactions may have led to the formation of the universe’s first compact cosmic objects. Less than a second after the Big Bang, before the first…

Full details emerge of feared shortfall in funding, days after 1,500 staff received email alerting them to risk of possible job losses

New simulations suggest magnetic fields hold the key to forming black holes that defy known mass limits. When powerful magnetic forces act on a collapsing, spinning star, they eject vast amounts of material, creating smaller yet faster…

In the first fraction of a second after the Big Bang, long before atoms or light-filled galaxies existed, the newborn cosmos may already have been seeded with complex structures. A new theoretical study published in Physical Review D by…

Two black hole collisions detected just a month apart last autumn are challenging our understanding of how they form. One merger features a black hole spinning backwards against its orbit while the other involves one of the fastest…
