Astronomers think there could be as many as 100 million black holes in our galaxy, most with a similar mass to our Sun, but ...

Astronomers have confirmed a wandering black hole, about seven times the mass of the Sun, 5,000 light-years from Earth.

Prior to the current finding, all black holes that scientists have ever identified have been spotted with a companion star.

A team of US astronomers led by Kailash Sahu said they have finally discovered the first isolated stellar-mass black hole ...

While solitary black holes should be common, they are hard to find. The one in Sagittarius revealed itself when it passed in front of a dim background star, magnifying the star’s light and slowly ...

Webb witnessed a highly ionised gas whose level of energy was too high to come from something like supernovae, making ...

Astronomers have used space-based telescopes, including NASA's Swift X-ray observatory, to watch a monster black hole spring ...

If dark matter is creating positrons in the CMZ, those particles will eventually slow down and eventually annihilate with electrons in the environment, producing gamma-rays at exactly 511keV energy.

This was a sign that the galaxy's sleeping black hole was waking from its slumber, according to the study published in the ...

ALMA has revealed evidence of a new type of slim, filamentary structure that drives cycles of depletion and replenishment. At ...

Astronomers have long been puzzled by two strange phenomena at the heart of our galaxy. First, the gas in the central ...
