Twin orbs of superhot plasma at the Milky Way's center known as the "Fermi bubbles" contain inexplicable clouds of cold ...

A team of scientists led by expert Raúl Jiménez, ICREA researcher at the University of Barcelona's Institute of Cosmos ...

Astronomers have been aware of cosmic vampires, dead stars that hungrily strip plasma from victim stars, for some time. New ...

The bold question-askers at What If reveal how black holes bend light and allow us to peer into their mysterious depths.

Our idea for black hole physics being used for GW generation, is using Torsion to form a cosmological constant. Planck sized black holes allow for a spin density term linked to Torsion. In doing so, ...

New research shows that collisions between particles free falling from infinity and a disk of material plunging off the retrograde innermost stable circular orbit of a rotating black hole is the ...

Sean Gopalakrishnan, a senior physics and astrophysics student, has been recognized for his outstanding research with a Stephen Halley White Undergraduate Research Award. The award is one of the top ...

Photographer Ric Savid specializes in black-and-white portraits developed and printed in his own darkroom.

Scientists have discovered key conditions needed for a stellar black hole to create plasma jets. Their findings show that when superheated gas material experiences a rapid shrinkage towards the ...

The newly-developed device functions as an optical black hole or optical white hole, and rests on a principle known as coherent perfect absorption of light waves. Dependent on polarization, this ...

A new recipe for black holes could do away with central singularities, saving the laws of physics from troubling infinities.

The M87* black hole exhibits chaotic gas flow and plasma ring dynamics, offering new insights into black hole physics.
