By combining data from the Subaru Telescope and James Webb Space Telescope, researchers have discovered distant quasars that ...

Inayoshi argues that Little Red Dots are the birth cries of black holes - brief, turbulent episodes that mark the first ...

They’re either massively heavy galaxies or modestly sized ones, each containing a supermassive black hole at its core. However, one thing is certain. The typical Little Red Dot is small ...

Forget "little green men" — it is "little red ... dots in the early universe, these JWST findings could challenge what we know about the evolution of galaxies and the supermassive black holes ...

"There's a substantial amount of work being done to try to determine the nature of these little red dots and whether their light is dominated by accreting black holes." Upon their discovery back ...

A mysterious class of small, red objects in the early universe might be explained by black holes inside dense ... dubbed little red dots (LRDs). Receive a weekly dose of discovery in your inbox!

Large galaxies that exist today almost all seem to have a supermassive black hole at their centers, he notes. A subsample of little red dots that researchers examined in more detail showed light ...

Like the mimic octopus, the Little Red Dots puzzle astronomers, because they look like different astrophysical objects. They’re either massively heavy galaxies or modestly sized ones, each containing ...

This is about all we know. The road before us now forks off in at least two branches; little red dots are either galaxies hosting a central supermassive black hole; or they are galaxies hosting a ...

Inayoshi argues that Little Red Dots are the birth cries of black holes — brief, turbulent episodes that mark the first outbursts of growth from newly formed "seed" black holes. If correct, this ...

The James Webb Space Telescope found "tiny red dots" in the early universe representing overgrown supermassive black holes and stars that are impossibly old for the infant cosmos. When you ...
