A "missing link" black hole in Omega Centauri is still missing. What appeared to be an intermediate-mass black hole was a ...
According to the team's modeling and calculations with the added pulsar data, the motions of the stars in the center of Omega ...
Black holes continue to be some of the most fascinating celestial objects in the Universe – and odd things are being ...
There may not be an intermediate-mass black hole in this cluster after all, a new study shows. Illustration of the potential black holes within Omega Centauri (main) and stock image of a black ...
New research may have delivered bad news for scientists who thought they had discovered a "missing link" black hole in a dense Milky Way star cluster. The new findings imply that, rather than a ...
The team compared two types of galaxies: those harboring X-ray-emitting black holes and those without. Using Webb’s ...
Astronomers thought that a swarm would be far less likely, since gravitational interactions between the black holes and other stars could send them flying out of the center of the cluster willy-nilly.
But it wasn't clear whether this was caused by an "intermediate mass" black hole (IMBH), weighing a hundred thousand times the mass of the Sun, or a cluster of "stellar mass" black holes ...
