"The results we are obtaining are truly unexpected, and all point to a super Eddington-type growth mechanism for black holes.

At a singularity, the laws of physics as we know them suffer a complete breakdown. So such objects really shouldn’t exist.

Black hole coronae are billions of degrees hot, which makes them a lot more difficult to study in detail. Using NASA’s IXPE ( ...

Researchers using XMM-Newton and Chandra telescopes have linked X-ray emissions from 21 distant quasars to rapid supermassive ...

Supermassive black holes are often found at the center of galaxies, but did you know that some of the largest black holes are ...
