Connections Between X-Ray and Neutrino Emission?
Today’s authors investigate how the physics in the extreme environments in the centers of galaxies leads to connections between X-rays and ghostly particles called neutrinos!
Did this supermassive black hole form from the collapse of a giant gas cloud?
The Infinity Galaxy might be home to a newborn supermassive black hole that formed directly from a gas cloud instead of a star. Could this help reveal how these objects formed in the early universe?
Guest: What are Partial Tidal Disruption Events, and How Do We Find Them?
What happens when a star survives a close encounter with a massive black hole? Read more about these partial tidal disruption events in today’s bite!
Eating Up the Competition: Super-Competitive Accretion in Early Star Clusters
Some of the first clusters of stars may have had massive cannibal stars! Learn more in today’s bite.
On the Straight and Narrow: How Black Hole Seeds Agree with Scaling Relations
How are the masses of growing black holes in the early universe are correlated with properties of their host galaxies? Read on to see what today’s authors found!
Growth Spurt: Super-Eddington Accretion Leading to Overmassive Black Holes?
Some astronomers are discovering black holes that appear to be too big for their galaxies. Discover how rapid growth could be the cause!
