Scientists have discovered that some supermassive black holes rotate much more rapidly than expected. The discovery came as the result of a new form of "black hole archeology" that links black hole ...

Black holes may leak more energy to their surroundings than previously suspected — and the faster these voids spin, the more ...

Black holes are more than just cosmic vacuum cleaners — they are powerful energy engines capable of redistributing vast amounts of power. Black holes spin and extract energy through powerful magnetic ...

A supermassive black hole in the early universe is consuming material at an unprecedented rate, challenging long-standing ...

Black holes and their archaeology The results of the SDSS Survey of mass measurements of hundreds of black holes were a surprise, according to Fries. That's because the spin rates reveal something ...

The new study, which appears in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, suggests that the Milky Way’s black hole is spinning so fast that it’s actually warping space-time.

Using the James Webb Space Telescope, scientists witnessed a brilliant light show at the heart of our Milky Way galaxy.

The James Webb Space Telescope has shown that the Milky Way’s black hole is constantly blazing with light, releasing long ...

Black holes have been fascinating subjects of study, not just because they are cosmic vacuum cleaners, but also as engines of ...

Measuring balck hole spin isn't easy Despite being cosmic monsters that shape the entire galaxies around them, supermassive black holes with masses millions or billions of times that of the sun ...

Black holes may leak more energy to their surroundings than previously suspected — and the faster these voids spin, the more efficient this energy extraction seems to be. With this in mind ...
