Yoonsoo Kim et al, Black Hole Pulsars and Monster Shocks as Outcomes of Black Hole–Neutron Star Mergers, The Astrophysical Journal Letters (2025). DOI: 10.3847/2041-8213/adbff9 ...

A neutron star's final moments may spark violent starquakes, monster shock waves, and even a fleeting, never-before-seen object called a black hole pulsar.

When a black hole and a neutron star finally meet, the result is cosmic carnage—and now, thanks to Caltech’s latest supercomputer simulations, we’re getting a front-row seat to the whole ...

Astronomers have discovered a massive black hole jet that is three times bigger than the Milky Way. The jet is known as Quasar J1601+3102, and … The post The largest black hole jet ever ...

It’s the largest black hole jet we’ve discovered to date. What makes this particular jet so exciting for astronomers is not only its size. It’s also estimated to be 1.2 billion years old.

Unleashing Cosmic Chaos: Cracks, Quakes, and Plasma Ripples When a black hole encounters a neutron star, the gravitational force is so immense that it triggers the destruction of the neutron star ...

NASA 's Chandra X-ray Observatory has detected one of the most powerful black hole jets ever observed. The jets were emanating from a galaxy 11.6 billion light-years away from the earth. This jet ...

Most galaxies around the size of the Milky Way or larger have a supermassive black hole skulking in their center. Each of these black holes can be millions or even billions of times more massive ...

The universe may not have begun with the Big Bang as is generally thought but from the collapse of a massive black hole, a new theory suggests. Current observations of our universe appear to ...

A team of astronomers led by Michael Janssen (Radboud University, The Netherlands) has trained a neural network with millions of synthetic black hole data sets. Based on the network and data from ...

Jun 05, 2025 New study indicates that scientists could use black holes as particle supercolliders Scientists could turn to black holes to aid the search for dark matter and similarly elusive particles ...

The findings suggest black holes could provide a cheaper, natural alternative to billion-dollar particle colliders, if we can figure out how to harness them.
