A team of computational astrophysicists has developed a simulation that explains the behavior of matter around black holes.

NASA has visualized the cataclysm, which is thought to have caused a mysterious eruption of gamma rays captured by telescopes ...

Using cutting-edge algorithms and exascale supercomputers, researchers have created the most realistic simulations yet of matter flowing into black holes. Building on decades of research, a group of c ...

A detailed suite of simulations conducted by astrophysicists at the Flatiron Institute and their collaborators showed that magnetic fields can produce black holes with masses that were previously ...

In a study published in Physical Review Letters, physicists have demonstrated that black holes satisfy the third law of ...

Some of the darkest objects in the universe are also among its brightest beacons, lighting up entire galaxies while their ...

If a new proposal by physicists bears out, the recent detection of a record-setting neutrino could be the first evidence of elusive Hawking radiation. (Nanowerk News) The last gasp of a primordial ...

Black holes are eaters of all things, even radiation. But what if their rapacious appetites had an unexpected side effect? A new study published in Physical Review Letters suggests that black holes ...

A flaring black hole whips up ultra-fast winds of more than 37,000 miles per SECOND, reveals new research. X-ray space telescopes spotted a never-seen-before blast from a supermassive black hole.

A new mathematical model of a wormhole suggests that two black holes can be “cut and pasted.” Cut and paste is an official ...

The black hole was bigger than expected, and while the answer was hiding in plain sight, it still rewrites what we thought was possible. Reading time 4 minutes When LIGO broke news of an ...
