Named LID-568, this black hole was identified within the Chandra X-ray Observatory’s COSMOS legacy survey, which included ...
The theory goes that black holes accrete material, often from nearby stars. However the theory also suggests there is a limit to how big a black hole can grow due to accretion and certainly shouldn’t ...
To put that into perspective, the universe is now about 13.8 billion years old. The discovery could provide insight into ...
This illustration shows a red, early-universe dwarf galaxy that hosts a rapidly feeding black hole at its center. Using data ...
A team of U.S. astronomers discovered a supermassive black hole that is consuming matter at a phenomenal rate—40x the ...
Scientists have found the "hungriest" black hole that is "feasting" on matter faster than experts previously thought possible ...
An ancient black hole near the galactic center is consuming matter at over 40 times the theoretical limit, raising questions ...
As we gaze into the universe, we've discovered most galaxies have a supermassive black hole lurking near the center.
Astronomers discovered a black hole, LID-568, in the early universe growing faster than theoretical limits, discussing how ...
Astronomers have spotted a black hole that dates back to just 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang, which is gobbling up matter at an astonishing rate. According to their calculations, the black hole ...
Black holes are fascinating objects. They're unimaginably dense: If Earth was (hypothetically) crushed into a black hole, it ...
Astronomers have discovered a supermassive black hole in a distant galaxy that is consuming matter at an extraordinary rate, surpassing the theoretical Eddington limit by more than 40 times.
