Rapid X-ray oscillations detected near the innermost orbit of a supermassive black hole could indicate the presence of a nearby orbiter such as a white dwarf ...

The universe could be home to far more supermassive black holes than we realised ... lurking in plain sight - hiding behind dust and gas rendering them invisible to normal telescopes.

This would explain why the flares are speeding up, as the white dwarf is getting closer to the black hole and moving faster. But it likely won't fall in. An artist's rendering of a white dwarf ...

Professor Poshak Gandhi, co-author of the study published in the Astrophysical Journal, said: “Black holes are the most mysterious objects in the universe and are present everywhere – yet we still don ...

A strange black hole is making scientists scratch their heads.

Many more supermassive black holes could be hiding in the universe ... are lurking in plain sight – hiding behind dust and gas rendering them invisible to normal telescopes Professor Poshak ...

Many more supermassive black holes could be hiding in the universe ... are lurking in plain sight - hiding behind dust and gas rendering them invisible to normal telescopes.

Using IRAS and NuSTAR telescopes, scientists identify hundreds of obscured black holes hidden behind gas and dust.

The supermassive black hole has been sending out flashes that have increased in speed. Astronomers say they have never seen anything like it before. The black hole is known as 1ES 1927+654 ...

The black hole, with an official name of 1ES 1927+654, is located in the distant constellation Draco. Astronomers have been monitoring the black hole for years, primarily since 2018 when the mass ...

"Interestingly, the quasar powering this massive radio jet does not have an extreme black hole mass compared to other quasars." Astronomers have detected the largest black hole-launched jet ever ...
