Scientists Detect Biggest Merger Of Two Black Holes In History
Scientists have detected the most massive merger of two black holes ever recorded for the first time in history.

Most Distant Mini-Halo Discovered in Galaxy Cluster 10 Billion Light-Years Away
Astronomers have uncovered the most distant mini-halo ever detected, located around the galaxy cluster SpARCS1049, a staggering 10 billion light-years from Earth. Using the LOFAR radio telescope network, which spans eight European countries, researchers detected a faint, diffuse glow—evidence of a giant cloud of high-energy particles and magnetic...

When Two Massive Black Holes Merged And Went Flying Across Cosmos
The researchers propose that this ejection resulted from the collision of two galaxies, causing their central black holes to merge into a larger one.

Gravitational Waves Reveal Black Hole Ancestry Through Spin Analysis
A study published in Physical Review Letters explores how gravitational waves reveal the ancestry of black holes. By examining 69 black hole mergers, researchers found that spin shifts indicate repeated collisions in dense star clusters. This insight supports models suggesting black holes grow through sequential mergers. Observatories like LIGO and...

MeerKAT Detects Gravitational Wave Background, Uncovering Cosmic Activity
Scientists using the MeerKAT Pulsar Timing Array have made a groundbreaking discovery, confirming the presence of a gravitational wave background in the universe. This unexpected phenomenon, detected with unprecedented precision, suggests that supermassive black hole collisions may occur more frequently than previously thought. By observing the sig...

NASA's Hubble and Chandra Telescopes Spot Strange Tilted Black Hole
NASA’s Hubble and Chandra telescopes have uncovered a bizarre sideways black hole in the galaxy NGC 5084, located 80 million light-years away. The black hole’s unexpected tilt suggests it may have been influenced by a violent galactic collision. A new image processing technique, SAUNAS, revealed X-ray plumes in the galaxy, hinting at a cosmic e...

Black Hole Mergers Explained: What Happens When Two Black Holes Collide in Space?
Black hole mergers are among the most energetic events in space. Two black holes gradually lose energy through gravitational interactions, drawing them closer until their event horizons stretch and merge. Gravitational waves released during the process are some of the most powerful forces in the universe, with part of the black holes' mass converti...

Supermassive Black Hole at the Centre of the Milky Way Is Spinning Unexpectedly
Sagittarius A* (pronounced Sagittarius A Star), the supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way, is spinning in an unusual way, and scientists now believe they may know why. Based on new data from the Event Horizon Telescope, researchers suggest that this cosmic giant likely merged with another black hole billions of years ago. This colo...

Astronomers Spot Imminent Collision Of Supermassive Black Holes In Nearby Galaxy: Report
Astronomers have detected two closely spaced supermassive black holes in the galaxy MCG-03-34-64, located 800 million light-years away.

James Webb Space Telescope Uncovers Surprising Dust Formation Near Supermassive Black Hole
James Webb Space Telescope images have uncovered an unexpected dust formation around a supermassive black hole, showing that gas collisions, not black hole radiation, heat the dust. This breakthrough by Newcastle University’s team challenges existing theories and offers new perspectives on galaxy evolution.

NASA's Hubble Telescope Spots Runaway Supermassive Black Hole Leaving Behind Trail of Newborn Stars
A supermassive black hole, weighing as much as 20 million Suns, has left behind a 2,00,000-light-year-long condensed trail of newborn stars, twice the diameter of the Milky Way galaxy, in its wake, according to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), US. Captured accidentally by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, the black hole was se...

Researchers Predict Imminent Collision Between 2 Supermassive Black Holes
Astronomers from Guangzhou University in China have used data from a range of X-ray observatories while covering a time period of 200 days. They tried to identify the high-energy signatures that are expected to be detected in a close supermassive black hole binary or a decaying orbit.

How Did Heavy Metals Like Gold, Uranium Form? Research Says Answer Lies in Black Holes
While all heavy metals have formed under extreme conditions inside stars or due to stellar explosions and collision of neutron stars, the question remains: when and why was the material ejected and whether heavy elements can be produced in any other way.

Dozens of Newly-Detected Gravitational-Wave Events May Help Better Understand Black Holes, Neutron Stars
Astrophysicists have found new 39 gravitational-wave events caused by collision of black holes and neutron stars far in the universe. These, along with previously observed 11 events, will help them understand the population of black holes and neutron stars across the universe.
