On April 6, 2024, the JWST detected a 40-minute flare from the black hole. The telescope's observations backed up the simulations that suggest criss-crossing magnetic field lines drive the flares.

The flare turned out to be faulty and suddenly burst into flames, sending a spark straight onto Kristy’s dress. In an instant, the fabric caught fire, leaving a hole that would forever remind ...

Astronomers theorize that a low-mass white dwarf, a compact core of a dead star about as large as Earth ... and unusual radio flare was underway, according to NASA. Astronomers at MIT also observed ...

Many simulations suggest that flares in Sgr A* are caused by the bunching of magnetic field lines in the supermassive black hole’s turbulent accretion disk. When two magnetic field lines approach they ...
