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 ...

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 ...

"Finding more supermassive black holes that are potentially hosting jets raises the question as to how these black holes grew so big in such a short timescale." Astronomers have discovered a ...

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 ...
