A research team from the Yunnan Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), in collaboration with other researchers, has developed a new method to estimate how stellar-mass compact objects ...
An international team of astronomers has investigated a short-lived optical flare designated AT2022zod. As a result, they found evidence indicating that this flare is an unusual tidal disruption event ...
Get all the latest scores and updates as Ben Stokes's England team try to avenge their loss in Perth and avoid a disastrous ...
The Hubble Space Telescope has imaged a "200,000 light-year-long trail of newborn stars" that may have been left behind by a ...
Astronomers have, for the first time, observed two large spiral arms of gas actively funneling material into a supermassive black hole (SMBH), providing a detailed look at its feeding mechanism. Using ...
An astonishing fact known for only the past few decades is that every big galaxy in the universe has a supermassive black hole at its heart. Scientists suspected this was the case in the 1980s, and ...
A rare instance of a supermassive black hole merger has been observed, resulting in a black hole exhibiting an unusually high proper motion. The New Scientist reported that this event holds ...
This is an image of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), one of the nearest galaxies to our Milky Way, as viewed by ESA’s Gaia satellite using information from the mission’s second data release. This ...
A supermassive black hole with an exceptional 7-minute flash may have a “stellar companion.” Of three possible explanations, one is a white dwarf star caught in the black hole’s gravity. Scientists ...
Astronomers have discovered a rare pair of supermassive black holes exhibiting an unprecedented feeding pattern. The black holes, located a billion light-years away, are consuming a massive gas cloud, ...
