Most cosmologists believe that these stars were the first large, free-floating structures to illuminate our universe, and ...
A tiny particle that smashed into Earth with a record-shattering energy of 220 petaelectronvolts could be the last scream of ...
LIGO observatory near Richland confirmed Einstein’s theory of relativity, it also has proven one of Hawking’s theorems.
Mathematical quirks of our universe have led some cosmologists to wonder whether the cosmos was actually born in a black hole ...
On September 14, 2015, a signal arrived on Earth, carrying information about a pair of remote black holes that had spiraled ...
B ack in 2019, researchers observed a collision between two black holes of wildly different masses. New analysis has revealed ...
Recently, research teams from Kyoto University and the University of Tokyo developed a novel mathematical framework that utilizes modern amplitude techniques to analyze black hole radiation and ...
The study showed that different theoretical models significantly affect the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) of black holes and provide various mechanisms for generating QPOs. In one model, the ...
In 1971, Stephen Hawking theorized that a black hole's event horizon can never shrink. Recently, LIGO confirmed this by ...
An exceptionally loud collision between two black holes has been detected by the LIGO gravitational wave observatory, ...
The first image of a black hole was of M87*, the supermassive monster at the center of the enormous elliptical galaxy M87.
A provocative new theory suggests that the Universe may not have begun with a traditional Big Bang, but rather as a “Big Bounce” — the explosive rebound of matter collapsing into a black hole. Led by ...
