Exceptionally powerful X-ray jets have been detected emanating from two supermassive black holes. These cosmic structures date back to a time when the Universe was still young. These discoveries, ...

Similar particles, shot out from black holes, could carry the signature of new physics—perhaps even dark matter. “The difference between a supercollider and a black hole is that black holes ...

Situated 11.6 billion and 11.7 billion light-years away, particles in one jet are moving at between 95 per cent and 99 per cent of the speed of light (called J1405+0415) and the other at between ...

Two supermassive black holes, located 11.6 and 11.7 billion light-years away, exhibit jets exceeding 300,000 light-years in length, with particles moving at 92–99% of the speed of light.

A team of scientists is proposing a bold alternative to the Big Bang theory, suggesting that our universe may have formed inside a colossal black hole residing in a larger, parent universe.

Hot, fast-moving particles dominated the cosmos after the burst of energy known as the Big Bang that scientists believe triggered the universe's expansion 13.7 billion years ago.

That’s why Silk and others believe black holes might provide a natural shortcut. “One of the great hopes for particle colliders like the LHC is that it will generate dark matter particles, but ...

Similar particles, shot out from black holes, could carry the signature of new physics—perhaps even dark matter. ... These gas flows provide a constant stream of fast-moving particles.
