Chandra X-ray Observatory observations of the Perseus galaxy cluster black hole and M87's jet have been turned into sound by ...

High-speed gas shooting from the galaxy M87 is causing stars to go nova, a study suggests, and no one knows how. Alec Lessing, an undergraduate student at Stanford University, Michael Shara, an ...

A team of researchers using the Global Millimeter VLBI Array, a network of radio telescopes around the world, has produced a new image of the black hole at the center of galaxy Messier 87. The new ...

Observations with the Event Horizon Telescope enable researchers to localize the likely base of the central outflow in a massive galaxy. (Nanowerk News) Some galaxies eject powerful streams of charged ...

A flare-up in a jet of matter blasting from a monster black hole is giving astronomers an incredible light show. The outburst is coming from a blob of matter, called HST-1, embedded in the jet, a ...

A massive international collaboration of researchers has released the first-ever direct image of the hellish environment surrounding a supermassive black hole. As part of the Event Horizon Telescope ...

Light curve of the gamma-ray flare (bottom) and collection of quasi-simulated images of the M87 jet (top) at various scales obtained in radio and X-ray during the 2018 campaign. The instrument, the ...

An enormous jet of particles emitted by the giant galaxy M87 can be observed astronomically in various wavelengths. Scientists have developed a theoretical model of the morphology of this jet using ...
