A groundbreaking study recently published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society has revealed an ...

Physicists think we could see such an explosion in the next 10 years - and it would 'revolutionize physics and rewrite the history of the universe'. This artist’s concept takes a fanciful approach to ...

Physicists may soon witness a cosmic fireworks show: the explosive death of a primordial black hole. Once thought to be unimaginably rare, new research suggests there’s up to a 90% chance of catching ...

A new discovery about what happens when a supernova – an exploding star – and a black hole collide could change the way scientists understand the lives and deaths of stars. The finding was the first ...

A decade ago, the first gravitational waves confirmed that black holes collide. Telescopes soon revealed shadows of giants lurking at galaxy cores. The next frontier is stranger: tiny black holes from ...

"The sheer amount of radiated energy from these bursts is so large that you can't power them with a core collapse stellar explosion — or any other type of normal stellar explosion." When you purchase ...

Physicists have long believed that black holes explode at the end of their lives, and that such explosions happen—at most—only once every 100,000 years. But new research published in Physical Review ...

This artist's concept takes a fanciful approach to imagining small primordial black holes. In reality, such tiny black holes would have a difficult time forming the accretion disks that make them ...
