Under the right circumstances, dust and gas falling into these galactic cores can form a disk of hot material around the ...

These findings offer fresh insight into the extreme mechanics of black hole jets, challenging previous theories on how such ...

A new research has discovered unusual, lumpy "knots" within a jet stream from a black hole in the Centaurus. These particles ...

NASA's Chandra X-ray telescope peers at a jet blasting forth from the central supermassive black hole of Centaurus A, a galaxy 12 million light-years from Earth. Particles blasting from a ...

NASA’s Chandra spots unusual 'knots' in a nearby black hole jet. X-ray data shows bright knots in Centaurus A black hole’s ...

Forthcoming investigations into the jets of Centaurus A and other galaxies could reveal whether the knot's varied speeds and ...

So Bogensberger, a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Michigan, decided to look at the black hole at the center of Centaurus A, one of the brightest galaxies in the sky, about 12 million ...

In particular, the study looks at the high-energy jet of particles being blasted across space by the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy Centaurus A. Jets are visible to different ...

Researchers have pored over more than two decades' worth of data from NASA's Chandra X-Ray Observatory to show there's new knotty science to discover around black holes. Research led by the ...
