“Lightsaber” jet extracts energy from the first black hole imaged by humanity
The burst of energy seems to represent the event horizon of the supermassive black hole in M87 extending outwards, suggesting how black holes could “leak” energy.
Breaking the quantum limit in gravitational wave detectors
Physicists working on LIGO have surpassed the quantum limit to enhance gravitational wave detectors and revolutionize astrophysical observations.
The James Webb Space Telescope spots quartz in exoplanet atmosphere
New discovery once again shows how strange planets outside the Solar System can get, and astronomers are thrilled.
White dwarfs could help find dark matter
Due to their incredible density, astronomers believe white dwarfs might make the perfect dark matter detectors.
James Webb Telescope deepens the mystery of the expansion of the Universe
It’s looking less and less likely that the Hubble tension is a result of observational errors.
Subaru Telescope shatters limit, observes supermassive black holes in the early Universe
Scientists have only observed supermassive black holes one billion years after the Big Bang, but astrophysicists have now breached this barrier.
Cosmic explosion is one of the most powerful and rapid blasts ever seen by astronomers
The rare but extreme blast that outshone most supernovas originated two billion light years away and has been classed as a “Luminous Fast Cooler”.
Astronomers observe a galaxy’s magnetic field in the very early Universe
The galaxy 9io9 is seen as it was when the cosmos was just 2.5 billion years old, making this the earliest galactic magnetic field ever observed.
Radio emissions reveal unprecedented oscillations in black hole radiation
Previously unobserved frequency changes in radio signals detected in a black hole binary system could change our understanding of black hole physics.
