Researchers from Purple Mountain Observatory have conducted an observational test of the black hole area law. Using the gravitational-wave event GW230814, which features a high signal-to-noise ratio, the team closely examined the event…

Hubble’s stunning view of NGC 4102 reveals a seemingly calm spiral galaxy hiding a quietly powerful supermassive black hole at its center. Wrapped in thick gas, the galaxy’s core glows softly across multiple wavelengths, betraying the…

Markets have been heaping risk premium on UK borrowing after the Chancellor's extraordinary backtrack - which came despite weeks of heavy hints and tough talk.

The Shadow Rift is an Ammo Mod reintroduced in Black Ops 7 Zombies. When equipped, it creates black holes that pull in zombies and throw them through the air.

Speculation had been mounting that Labour would break its manifesto pledge not to raise taxes on working people.

A mass range that shouldn't exist.

Black holes, regions of spacetime in which gravity is so strong that nothing can escape, are intriguing and extensively studied cosmological phenomena. Einstein's general theory of relativity predicts that when two black holes merge, they…

At the center of a galaxy 10 billion light-years away, a supermassive black hole is the new record holder for brightest flare.

Scientists may have solved the mystery of an "impossible" merger between two black holes so massive and fast-spinning that they shouldn't even exist, according to current theory.

The black hole was bigger than expected, and while the answer was hiding in plain sight, it still rewrites what we thought was possible.

Black holes bend light through gravitational lensing, a cosmic effect revealing hidden galaxies and testing Einstein's theory of relativity.

In 2023, gravitational wave detectors caught two black holes colliding 7 billion light years away, both spinning at nearly the speed of light and both existing in a mass range where black holes simply cannot form. The mystery baffled…

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…

The Universe is 13.8 billion years old. Incredibly, though, scientists are capable of modeling the...

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…
