NASA Unveils a Hidden Universe of Supermassive Black Holes

Twisted magnetic fields in space sculpt the jets of black holes and baby stars

By studying the fastest jet ever seen erupting from an infant star, astronomers have discovered that the mechanism that launches these jets also launch supermassive black hole jets.

NASA Unveils a Hidden Universe of Supermassive Black Holes

By combining data from NASA’s IRAS and NuSTAR telescopes, scientists have uncovered more hidden supermassive black holes than earlier estimates suggested. Their findings indicate that over a third of these black holes are obscured by thick gas and dust, influencing how galaxies grow and evolve. The study demonstrates the power of combining archival infrared data [...]

Newly discovered x-ray objects could be a rare type of black hole

For decades, intermediate-mass black holes have largely evaded direct observation

A new kind of hidden black hole may explain the mystery of dark energy

Space-time may hide a bizarre new kind of black hole that causes Einstein’s theory of gravity to fail – and could solve the mystery of dark energy

How did supermassive black holes form?

An astronomer analyzed ancient supermassive black holes with mathematical models and found they likely grew exponentially after light, intermediate…

The latest discovery of a hidden black hole may hold the key to solving the enigma of dark energy

As long as we are trying to grasp the real nature, we have worked on the concept of empty space. Around 400 BC, when the ancient Greek philosopher democracy was thinking about a small, inseparable body called atoms, he thought that there was to have a space surrounding them. Today, the voice is a powerful [...] Source The post The latest discovery of a hidden black hole may hold the key to solving the enigma of dark energy appeared first on Mond…
