At the heart of nearly every large galaxy lies a supermassive black hole. These cosmic giants don’t just sit quietly. Every ...

At the center of most large galaxies, including our own Milky Way, sits a supermassive black hole. Interstellar gas ...

At the heart of most large galaxies, including our own Milky Way, lurks a supermassive black hole. These cosmic giants ...

Although black hole radiation can be catastrophic in some cases, it may assist life once oxygen has accumulated in the planet ...

A surprising new study from Dartmouth and the University of Exeter researchers shows that when the supermassive black holes at the center of most large galaxies—including the Milky Way—consume ...

The researchers propose that this ejection resulted from the collision of two galaxies, causing their central black holes to merge into a larger one.

During growth phases, SMBH are observed as active galactic nuclei (AGN); the SMBH grows by accreting ... material to be investigated in the unresolved and partially obscured nucleus. We have obtained ...

Neutrinos are very mysterious particles,” says Damien Dornic, one of the co-authors of a new paper published February 12 in Nature that describes the detection of the decay products of an extremely ...

They explain in their paper that this SMBH—an active galactic nucleus called 1ES 1927+654 (or 1ES) and located many millions of lightyears away—is showing a pulsation pattern never seen before.

By analyzing the data from Leahy's atlas of double radio-sources and NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED), Serbian ...

“When a black hole at the center of a galaxy starts feeding, it unleashes a tremendous amount of energy into its surroundings, transforming into what we call an active galactic nucleus,” Pucha ...

At the center of most large galaxies, including our Milky Way, sits a supermassive black hole. These powerful objects sometimes enter active galactic nucleus (AGN) mode, where they pull in gas and ...
