Astronomers have uncovered what they say just might be the heaviest black hole we've ever seen. The "ultramassive" black hole is located at the center … The post Scientists claim they just discovered ...

Stellar-mass black holes typically form after a star goes supernova and collapses. However, the discovery of the first-ever ...

A surprising discovery about the black hole V404 Cygnus is expanding our understanding of black holes, the objects they can host, and the way they form. Many black holes detected to date appear to ...

In short: Astronomers discovered the first "black hole triple system", some 7,800 light-years from Earth. The system, called V404 Cygni, was thought to be a black hole and a companion star, but a ...

Physicists at MIT and Caltech have discovered the first “black hole triple,” a formation more than 8,000 light years from Earth that experts say expands the current understanding of how black ...

The first "black hole triple" system, consisting of a black hole hungrily feeding on a companion star orbited by a more distant star, hints at a gentle formation process without supernova explosions.

Gravitational waves stretch and squeeze the fabric of space and time itself. When space/time is squeezed, pulsar pulses ...

It was one of the first black holes ever discovered when it was spotted in 1992 and has been studied extensively since. Scientists have also long known about its nearby star, ...

For the first time, physicists have observed a “black hole triple” in space.This new system is about 8,000 light years away from Earth and is made up of a central black hole that is in the act ...

Stellar-mass black holes typically form after a star goes supernova and collapses. However, the discovery of the first-ever triple black hole system, V404 Cygni, complicates that picture.

 Researchers have discovered something groundbreaking in the world of astrophysics—an incredible system where not one, but a trio of black holes exist together The Complexity of V404 Cygni ...
