Hubble’s deep near-infrared campaign reveals more supermassive black holes in the early universe than previously expected.
Gigantic cosmic strings may have spawned supermassive black holes and galaxies
Scientists theorize that cosmic strings interacting with dense matter in the early universe provided the seeds for galaxies and black holes.
New JWST data challenges our understanding of supermassive black holes
The new findings contradict most observations of supermassive black holes, making this an unprecedented discovery.
Subaru Telescope shatters limit, observes supermassive black holes in the early Universe
Scientists have only observed supermassive black holes one billion years after the Big Bang, but astrophysicists have now breached this barrier.
Detecting ultralight dark matter particles using supermassive black holes
Is it time to start looking for alternatives to WIMPs?
Supermassive black holes on a collision course
45 years worth of radio telescope observations have identified a pair of supermassive black holes at the core of two galaxies set to merge.
Black hole images deliver a deathblow to alternative theory of gravity
Images of the supermassive black holes wouldn’t have been possible if mimetic gravity was the right recipe for gravity.
Black hole jet lights up dead stars like a cosmic blowtorch
Using the Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers discovered the jet from a black hole, triggering nova explosions along its path.
Galactic winds from black holes found to influence the evolution of galaxies
Astronomers have discovered that black holes trigger the formation of galactic winds that greatly influence star formation.
Astronomers witness the reawakening of a black hole
Imagine observing a distant galaxy for years when suddenly its core begins exhibiting unprecedented changes.
