Home News An artist's impression of the inside of a wormhole. (Image credit: Shutterstock) Physicists have used a quantum computer to simulate the first-ever holographic wormhole and transport information through it. The "baby" wormhole, created on Google's Sycamore 2 quantum computer was not created with gravity, but through quantum entanglement…

A black hole can launch a powerful relativistic jet after it tidally disrupts a star. If this jet fortuitously aligns with our line of sight, the brightness is Doppler boosted by several orders of magnitude. Consequently, such on-axis relativistic tidal disruption events have the potential to unveil cosmological quiescent black…

Earlier this year, the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (ESO’s VLT) was alerted after an unusual source of visible light had been detected by a survey telescope. The VLT, together with other telescopes, was swiftly repositioned towards the source: a supermassive black hole in a distant galaxy that had…

The 2022 Fifa Soccer World Cup is taking place in a country land that legislates against gays and lesbians, runs its obscenely wealthy economy off fossil fuels – and whose stadiums were built on the corpses of Bangladeshi slave labour, writes Simon Reader. And various half-hearted attempts to register their…

First, radio telescopes and then X-ray telescopes operated by NASA and the European Space Agency provided observational evidence for jets and other AGN outflows. Astronomers, including Weaver, have cobbled an explanation for their genesis during the past 30 to 40 years by tying together optical, radio, ultraviolet, and X-ray evidence.…

According to scientists, the engine that powers energetic and short-lived gamma-ray bursts must always come from a newly formed black hole. However, a new study contradicts this scientific orthodoxy. The study by Dr. Nuria Jordana-Mitjans at the University of Bath suggests that some short-duration GRBs are triggered by the birth…
