"If there are lots of black holes out there, some of them must surely pass through our backyard every now and then." If microscopic black holes born a fraction of a second after the Big Bang exist ...

Glimmers in the Cosmic Dawn: A Census of the Youngest Supermassive Black Holes by Photometric Variability*. The Astrophysical Journal Letters , 2024; 971 (1): L16 DOI: 10.3847/2041-8213/ad63a7 ...

A Milky Way-sized galaxy from the early universe appears to have stopped producing any new stars because a supermassive black hole at its center is blasting out all the material needed for stars ...

A mind-bending hypothesis is gaining traction among scientists: The universe may be teeming with microscopic black holes the size of an atom, but with the mass of a city-sized asteroid.

Black holes about the size of a hydrogen atom could be careening through the solar system unnoticed. But their days of stealth may be numbered. Two teams of researchers propose methods to search ...

Sep. 17, 2024 — With the help of NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, an international team of scientists has found more black holes in the early universe than has previously been reported.

A tiny black hole may pass through our solar system once every ten or so years, researchers have suggested, and this could be detected by watching Mars wobble. This estimate is based on an idea ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have confirmed that supermassive black holes can prevent star formation in their host galaxies by expelling vital gas and dust. An international ...
