Explore the enigmatic realm of black holes, where gravity reigns supreme and the laws of physics are stretched to their limits. This explainer delves into what we know, how they work, and the mysteries that continue to baffle scientists.
On January 14, 2025, the gravitational wave GW250114 provided an unprecedented test of Einstein's general relativity, revealing new insights into the nature of black holes.
The NANOGrav collaboration's latest study reveals no evidence of gravitational waves from supermassive black hole binaries, yet it provides valuable constraints and insights into potential candidates.
The James Webb Space Telescope has identified a new class of astrophysical objects, the 'Little Red Dots,' which are now understood to be direct collapse black holes, challenging existing cosmological models.
Recent research reveals that supermassive black holes alternate between expelling material as jets or winds, providing new insights into their energy regulation.
A recent study shows that active galactic nuclei are more prevalent in dwarf galaxies than previously thought, suggesting a need for revised models of black hole formation.
Recent research has revealed nonzero tidal love numbers in regular black holes, hinting at significant implications for our understanding of gravitational physics.
