Intriguingly, ultralight dark matter might be able to turn into photons (light) — and it's through this process that the ...

A new paper proposed by the researchers has said that dark matter may have contributed to the formation of giant black holes ...

Astronomers think there could be as many as 100 million black holes in our galaxy, most with a similar mass to our Sun, but ...

The quasi-periodic eruptions of X-rays from a black hole 300 million light-years away are unlike any researchers have ever ...

Prior to the current finding, all black holes that scientists have ever identified have been spotted with a companion star.

At the edge of science and imagination lies a question once posed by a Nobel laureate and now revisited with fresh eyes: ...

Webb detected rare neon gas in M83. This may signal a hidden black hole, challenging the idea that the galaxy has only ...

Researchers have spent the past few years watching a black hole re-awaken roughly 300 million light-years away from Earth.

Scientists have discovered key conditions needed for a stellar black hole to create plasma jets. Their findings show that when superheated gas material experiences a rapid shrinkage towards the black ...

A team of astronomers at the Space Telescope Science Institute, working with one colleague from the University of St Andrews' ...

Something unexpected has come to life in the great darkness of space. In a galaxy 300 million light-years away from Earth, a ...

The device, reported in Advanced Photonics, functions as an optical black hole or optical white hole, and rests on a principle known as "coherent perfect absorption" of light waves.Dependent on ...
