A recent study in Physical Review Letters explores quantum effects on black hole thermodynamics and geometry, focusing on ...

Astronomers have stumbled upon a pair of massive black holes in a distant galaxy that are triggering unusual bursts of light.

Peculiar James Webb Space Telescope observations seem to show gargantuan black holes in the earliest moments of the universe.

Scientists developed a new model, which provides mathematical evidence that singularities are hidden inside black holes.

The conventional wisdom among astronomers is that black holes - those exceptionally dense objects with gravity so powerful that not even light can escape - form in the violent explosion ...

Black holes exert a tremendous influence on their surroundings, meaning that when they spin, they literally drag the very fabric of space and time around with them. That means nothing can sit still ...

Supermassive black hole observed consuming matter at unseen pace. A supermassive black hole at the centre of a distant Galaxy, devouring matter at a phenomenal rate -- over 40 times the ...

A "black hole triple" system has been discovered for the first time, scientists announced. Black holes have only been spotted on their own or in a binary until this discovery, with a single star ...

Astronomers have discovered a supermassive black hole in a distant galaxy that is defying conventional understanding. Growing ...

Stellar-mass black holes typically form after a star goes supernova and collapses. However, the discovery of the first-ever triple black hole system, V404 Cygni, complicates that picture.

The ghosts of stars are up to their usual mischief. By Dennis Overbye Just in time for Halloween, two black holes are in the news. One is a serial killer, on the verge of devouring its second star ...
