An artist’s impression shows a triple star system called V404 Cygni with a black hole and two ordinary stars. Material siphoned from the deformed nearby star (left) is pictured swirling around the black hole (right), as the third star (top right) shines in the distance. Astronomers traditionally believe black holes form when massive stars explode … Read more
BENGALURU: India’s AstroSat, Nasa’s space observatories, and other international telescopes have captured a dramatic cosmic event involving a massive black hole and stellar wreckage. The discovery provides valuable insights into two previously mysterious phenomena: tidal disruption events (TDEs) and quasi-periodic eruptions (QPEs).“A massive black hole has torn apart one star and is using that stellar … Read more
washington — Two mighty beams of energy have been detected shooting in opposite directions from a supermassive black hole inside a distant galaxy — the largest such jets ever spotted, extending about 140 times the diameter of our vast Milky Way galaxy. The black hole resides at the heart of a galaxy about 7.5 billion … Read more
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have confirmed that supermassive black holes have the ability to deprive their host galaxies of the gas and dust needed for star formation.This groundbreaking discovery was made by an international team of researchers, co-led by the University of Cambridge, and marks a significant advancement in understanding the complex … Read more
Astronomers have discovered a supermassive black hole, located 9 billion light-years away, amid a cosmic feast as it devours one of the largest stars ever observed in a ‘tidal disruption event’ (TDE). This rare phenomenon, designated AT2023vto, is marked by the black hole shredding a star roughly nine times the mass of our Sun and … Read more
An international team of 32 scientists from 10 countries, including India, Finland, Poland, China, USA, Czech Republic, Japan, Germany, Spain, and Italy, has directly observed the smaller black hole in a binary system for the first time. The study, published in Astrophysical Journal Letters, focused on the galaxy OJ 287, located approximately 4 billion light-years … Read more

The study, published in Astrophysical Journal Letters, focused on the galaxy OJ … Read more
Nasa‘s Hubble Space Telescope has discovered compelling evidence for the presence of an intermediate-mass black hole at the heart of the globular star cluster Omega Centauri. This finding represents a significant step in understanding the formation and evolution of black holes.Omega Centauri, the largest globular cluster in the Milky Way, is known for its dense … Read more
A recent study by an international team of astronomers has revealed new insights into the enigmatic Cygnus X-3 binary system, located about 24,000 light-years away in the Milky Way galaxy. Using Nasa’s Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE), researchers have discovered that this system, which likely contains a black hole and a massive Wolf-Rayet star, exhibits … Read more
CAPE CANAVERAL, FLORIDA — The Webb Space Telescope has discovered the earliest known merger of black holes. These two gigantic black holes and their galaxies consolidated just 740 million years after the universe-forming Big Bang. It’s the most distant detection ever made of merging black holes, scientists reported Thursday. One black hole is 50 million … Read more
