New statistical analyses of the supermassive black hole M87* may explain changes observed since it was first imaged. The findings, from the same Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) that produced the iconic ...

A new generation of black hole research is unfolding thanks to artificial intelligence, massive simulations, and cutting-edge ...

Caltech simulations reveal what happens when black holes collide with neutron stars—violent cracking, intense shock waves, ...

Black holes are always fascinating, and a new simulation adds to their mystery. You likely did not previously associate them with fluffy angel-food cake, but researchers at Caltech recently put ...

Now, new simulations show that these collisions influence the spins of black holes. As the black holes move closer together, their spins align with the binary orbit creating a beautiful sight in ...

A groundbreaking simulation reveals how neutron star mergers forge black holes, generate gamma-ray bursts, and scatter gold ...

In a recently published paper in Physical Review Letters, scientists propose a comprehensive theoretical framework indicating ...

The iconic image of a supermassive black hole in the Messier 87 (M87) galaxy—described by astronomers as a "fuzzy orange donut"—was a stunning testament to the capabilities of the Event ...

NASA's simulation is based on a supermassive black hole the same size as the one at the center of our galaxy: Sagittarius A*. Here's an image of what Sagittarius A* really looks like.

For the first time, astronomers have observed, in the same image, the shadow of the black hole at the centre of the galaxy Messier 87 (M87) and the powerful jet expelled from it.

The EHT’s previous run had revealed the black hole’s ‘shadow’, ... The team further used general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations to create models of the M87 black hole.
