New images from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have revealed, for the first time, starlight from two massive galaxies hosting actively growing black holes – quasars – seen less than a billion ...
Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have gotten the first-ever look at the light of ancient stars shining around some of the biggest, brightest and oldest black holes in the ...
This has been the “best evidence yet” found by the space observatory for a rare type of black hole Astronomers, with the help ...
Guwahati: A team of researchers from several institutions, including the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (IIT-G), U R ...
Primordial black holes are one of the strongest candidates for the universe's missing dark matter. But a new theory suggests that not enough of the miniature black holes formed for this to be the ...
Black holes are regions in space where an enormous amount of mass is packed into a tiny volume. This creates a gravitational pull so strong that not even light can escape. They are created when giant ...

June 6, 2024 — In the first quintillionth of a second, the universe may have sprouted microscopic black holes with enormous amounts of nuclear charge, MIT physicists propose. The gravitational ...
“If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.” This famous quote by Isaac Newton points to an axiom that lies at the heart of The Sciences — knowledge ...
Scientists have discovered certain types of black holes that swivel around and shoot beams at objects in the cosmos.
Black holes have a profound impact on their environments. As gas falls towards a super-massive black hole its gravitational potential energy can be converted to heat and light, in some instances ...
