Black holes and string theory are two fascinating areas of modern theoretical physics that intersect in intriguing ways. Black holes, regions in space where gravity is so strong that nothing can ...

This correspondence suggests that certain properties of black holes can be understood through the lens of CFT, which is a type of quantum field theory that is invariant under conformal ...

Besides stars, the United States Navy uses quasars as beacons. Quasars are distant galaxies with supermassive black holes, surrounded by ... X-Ray Flashes from a Nearby Supermassive Black Hole ...

The jets extending from these blazars can extend millions of light-years in length. Black holes are among the most mysterious cosmic objects, much studied but not fully understood. In pursuit of ...

Approach the event horizon of a black hole on a one-way mission of discovery, and even if you survive, your distant colleagues won't be able to wave you away ... our best theory of gravity ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), researchers found that galaxies with active supermassive black holes produce stars at slower rates compared to those without such black holes. The team ...

At 12.9 billion light-years away, it offers valuable insights into the formation of black holes. "The alignment of the jet with Earth allows us to peer into the heart of this cosmic powerhouse ...

As far as supermassive black holes go ... keeping secrets locked away about the role of electrons, which have to cool to release energy to power the flares," Michail explains. "Our new observations ...

which lies some 11 billion light-years away from Earth. They found that galaxies that appear to have supermassive black holes at their hearts produce stars at a much slower rate than those without ...

A "missing link" black hole in Omega Centauri is still missing. What appeared to be an intermediate-mass black hole was a cluster of stellar-mass black holes. New research may have delivered bad ...
