The image of supermassive black hole Sagittarius A * was created using data from the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration. At the same time several telescopes, including the Chandra X-ray Observatory ...
Image of the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*). from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration "has ...
Astronomers studying elusive supermassive black ... Event Horizon Telescope, an expanded version of EHT that astronomers hope will capture not just images but also videos of black holes.
Any object that falls past a black hole's point-of-no-return, called the event horizon, isn't coming back. That includes light. "This would be the closest thing we know of around any black hole." ...
The image of M87*, the supermassive black hole at the center of massive elliptical galaxy M87, changed the world. It was the ...
Strange vibrations emanating from a supermassive black hole appear to be growing more frequent and they could be caused by a white dwarf star orbiting perilously close to its event horizon.
NASA created a haunting audio clip of sound waves rippling out of a supermassive black hole, located 250 million light-years away. The black hole is at the center of the Perseus cluster of galaxies, ...
At first glimpse, it may seem like infant stars and supermassive black holes have very little in common. Infant stars, or "protostars," haven't yet gathered enough mass to trigger the nuclear ...
Jets from black holes trigger cooling in the hot gas, causing it to condense into warm filaments. These filaments then flow toward the black hole, feeding it, and the cycle repeats. Brightness ...
This is extremely close to the black hole’s event horizon,” said Megan Masterson, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology doctoral student in physics and lead author of the study that was ...
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 ...
