A starship driven by a captive black hole sounds like pure science fiction, yet the underlying physics is brutally literal. A tiny, artificial singularity would convert mass into energy with an ...
AI has helped astronomers crack open some of the universe s best-kept secrets by analyzing massive datasets about black holes. Using over 12 million simulations powered by high-throughput computing, ...
A UK-based research project, TomoGrav, will produce the first 3D movies of black holes, mapping plasma flows and gravity in real time using advanced AI and global telescope networks.
Our galaxy’s centre may contain an exceptional cosmic spinning top – a black hole that seems to be spinning almost as fast as possible. Michael Janssen at Radboud University in the Netherlands and his ...
Artistic depiction of the explosive interaction between the black hole and the massive nearby star (blue). As the separation between the star and the black hole decreased, the black hole's intense ...
Astronomers at Queen’s University Belfast and the Leiden Observatory in the Netherlands are seeking help to shape how ...
Astronomers using AI have captured a once-in-a-lifetime cosmic event: a massive star’s violent death triggered by its black hole companion. The explosion, known as SN 2023zkd, not only produced a ...
