For the first time, NASA Chandra X-ray telescope has been used to discover a pair of black holes in dwarf galaxies that are ...

Jets blasting from supermassive black holes cause gas to cool and fall toward that cosmic titan in a cosmic feeding process.

Astronomers have been monitoring the black hole for years, primarily since 2018 when the mass was observed changing its properties with a major X-ray outburst. Between 2022 and 2024, astronomers ...

In 2022, the team looked through observations of the black hole taken by the European Space Agency’s XMM-Newton, a space-based observatory that detects and measures X-ray emissions from black ...

Rapid X-ray oscillations detected near the innermost orbit of a supermassive black hole could indicate the presence of a nearby orbiter such as a white dwarf ...

Scientists have created the first-ever 3D maps of star-forming molecular clouds near the Milky Way's supermassive black hole, ...

New research shows black holes can trigger gas cooling, creating fuel for their own feeding. This process keeps them growing ...

This suggests that NGC 5084 is host to a supermassive black hole tipped on its side, and scientists think it could be evidence of a galactic collision in NGC 5084’s recent past.
