An international team of scientists has unveiled new insights into the dissociation dynamics of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) ...

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 ...

This supermassive black hole-food cooling process was discovered by astronomers using NASA's Chandra X-ray telescope and the Very Large Telescope (VLT) to observe some of the universe's most ...

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 unlocked the 3D structure of molecular clouds in the Milky Way’s center, using a groundbreaking X-ray technique. These cosmic clouds, vital for star formation, were illuminated by past ...

Soon, however, the possibility emerged that the unusual explosion, designated EP240408A, could have been the result of a supermassive black hole ripping ... saw with its X-ray eye was something ...

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

Scientists have found that supermassive black holes self-grow by regulating the cooling of surrounding hot gas, forming warm gas filaments that they consume. This discovery enhances the ...
