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 ...

In a landmark discovery, astronomers have confirmed the existence of a solitary stellar-mass black hole—an object with ...

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 ...

The James Webb Space Telescope reveals turbulent environments found in Sagittarius C, a core part of our Milky Way galaxy.

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

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 ...
