A U.S. gravitational wave detector spotted a collision between fast-spinning “forbidden” black holes that challenge physics ...

The massive black hole has been dubbed GW231123. Its unusual size and behavior is challenging scientists' understanding of ...

At 225 solar masses, this gargantuan merger of two black holes challenges our thinking on these famously elusive objects.

To date, the collaboration has detected dozens of merger events since its first Nobel Prize-winning discovery. Early detected mergers involved either two black holes or two neutron stars. In 2021, ...

Astronomers have detected the signal of a colossal black hole in deep space that likely formed when two already-large black ...

A collaboration between humanity’s three gravitational wave detectors have identified a black hole merger event that created ...

A group of Manitoba researchers were involved behind the scenes of an international effort that this week revealed the first ...

A team of astronomers has captured the most detailed image yet of a powerful jet blasting out from the supermassive black ...

Scientists have detected the merger of the most massive black holes ever observed with gravitational waves, using the US National Science Foundation-funded (NSF) LIGO Hanford and Livingston ...

Scientists have recorded two black holes weighing in at approximately 140 times and 100 times the mass of our Sun merge, in what is being dubbed as the biggest black hole merger to ever be recorded.

Black hole mergers release gravitational waves detected by observatories, revealing insights into the universe's mysteries.

Considering the gravitationally chaotic nature of black hole environments, with their pushes and pulls, it’s remarkable that this merger was stable enough for the resulting gravitational waves ...
