Black Hole

Astronomers have uncovered a surprising rule that appears to determine when black holes unleash powerful jets of material into space. Even though black holes can differ in mass by millions of times, researchers found that they seem to follow the same fundamental pattern when producing these enormous cosmic outflows. The…

An illustration of a supermassive black hole blasting out a jet of plasma (Image credit: Robert Lea (created with Canva)) Using the NASA X-ray spacecraft Swift combined with radio observations, astronomers have observed a supermassive black hole burping radio jets 300 days after a heavy cosmic meal. The team was…

Our view of the infant cosmos is hazy at best. Yet relics from those first instants, objects that behave like dark matter, could act as fossils of the universe’s birth. Among the most intriguing candidates are primordial black holes (PBHs), thought to form from overdensities in the early universe. For…

A bizarre neutrino that crashed into Earth in February 2023 is gaining no shortage of equally bizarre explanations. About 35 times more energetic than any neutrino seen before, it was picked up by the under-construction Cubic Kilometer Neutrino Telescope (KM3NeT) detector off the coast of Sicily. Some theorists have guessed…
