Possible evolutionary outcomes for white dwarfs hosting an endoparasitic black hole (EBH), plotted as a function of the white dwarf mass M_WD and spin period T_WD. The diagram shows three distinct ...

Black Holes coverage from Scientific American, featuring news and articles about advances in the field.

Black holes generally come in two sizes: big and really big. As they are so dense, they are measured in terms of mass rather than size, and astronomers call these two groups of stellar mass black ...

The story begins with a system known as GRO J1655-40. It's a binary system containing a black hole of about seven solar masses and a companion star of more than three solar masses. An artist's ...

A better understanding of black holes Yusef-Zadeh and other astrophysicists were able to study the flares using NASA's James Webb Telescope's NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera), a powerful instrument ...

That timeline means that this supermassive black hole, estimated to have a mass around 200 million times that of the sun, existed in a vital cosmic period known as the " epoch of reionization." ...
