Black holes are some of the most mysterious objects in the universe, but what if we could recreate their physics in a lab?
Black holes are as dangerous as they are distant, so scientists set out to simulate one in a lab. What happened next would ...
That’s where [Steinhauer]’s sonic black holes come in. In these experiments, phonons, packets of mechanical vibrations that stand in for photons, are trapped in a fast-moving stream of fluid.
A new underground facility called DUNE, which will accelerate particles for 800 miles between Illinois and South Dakota, ...
The black hole, with an official name of 1ES 1927+654, is located in the distant constellation Draco. Astronomers have been monitoring the black hole for years, primarily since 2018 when the mass ...
As the Event Horizon Telescope pursues ambitious upgrades, the project’s latest results reveal the magnetic fields around our galaxy’s supermassive black hole ...
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.
Scientists have published a spectacular new polarised light image of the strong magnetic fields spiraling from the edge of the black hole at the center of our galaxy. Seen in polarised light for ...
More massive stars than the Sun have a very different life cycle and follow the right hand path in the diagram above: \({Nebula}\rightarrow{protostar}\rightarrow{main~sequence~star}\rightarrow{red ...
