The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) is no stranger to making history and breaking records. In 2015 ...

A black hole jet from the Centaurus A galaxy is "hitting something along its path," that is baffling astronomers. The Chandra ...

But in the past two decades, new types of black holes have been seen and astronomers are beginning to understand how they ...

Astronomers have been aware of cosmic vampires, dead stars that hungrily strip plasma from victim stars, for some time. New ...

A physics conference has received a report of the gravitational wave from the heaviest pair of black holes we’ve so far observed merging. The result is larger than theoretical models allow through ...

Collaboration has detected the merger of the most massive black holes ever observed with gravitational waves using the LIGO ...

The most massive gravitationally detected black hole merger to date has been observed by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration.

Collaboration has made a groundbreaking discovery by detecting the merger of the most massive black holes ever observed. The ...

The most massive black holes ever observed with gravitational waves have been detected by the LIGO Hanford and Livingston ...

ENTs occur when stars that are at least three times as massive as the Sun pass so close to a supermassive black hole that its ...

These black holes are the most distant and stable objects we know. Using a technique called very long baseline interferometry ...

Merger creates black holes weighing 240 times the mass of our Sun — the heaviest binary black hole system confirmed through gravitational-wave observations.
