Rather than relying on a cheek swab or a little blood, however, these cosmic DNA tests utilize tiny ripples in the fabric of ...

After decades of study, scientists sound genuinely optimistic about the possibility of detecting primordial black holes, which might explain dark matter.

Researchers have discovered the largest black hole plasma jets ever in a galaxy almost 7 billion light years away from Earth.

Gravitational waves are unlocking the origins of black holes, linking spin shifts to sequential mergers in star clusters.

“The star clusters then sink to the centre of the galaxy, where the intermediate-mass black holes merge to form a supermassive black hole.” While black holes are famous for gobbling up matter ...

This rare quasar with spiral arms could help astronomers understand how supermassive black holes feed and grow.

It's no secret that black holes are some of the weirdest objects in space. Their disks are fluffy like cake, and diving into one is both interesting and terrifying. Now, a group of astronomers ...

to attempts to learn more about how they form and even what happens when two black holes merge, scientists have pushed our knowledge of these celestial entities further than ever. Now, though ...

Researchers have demonstrated a new, unsupervised machine learning approach to find new patterns in the auxiliary channel data of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory.

which form in densely populated star clusters where small black holes repeatedly collide and merge with one another." This study will now help astrophysicists further refine computer models which ...
