Astronomers have identified the Neptune-sized exoplanet TOI-1853b with unusually high density and mass, making a breakthrough discovery that suggests a major planetary collision occurred during…
First observation of the orbit of the accretion disk of a supermassive black hole
Astronomers have discovered hints of an accretion disk in the active galactic nucleus of galaxy III Zw 002 for the first time using the Gemini…
A new study suggests that dark matter interacts with gravity non-locally
A new SISSA study suggests that dark matter interacts with gravity in non-local ways, challenging traditional theories and offering new insights into the nature of…
Astronomers have observed for the first time a young Sun-like star emitting high-energy gamma rays.
The observation is the first evidence that this type of low-mass star, known as T Taurus, surrounded by a planet-forming disk of gas and dust,…
New supernova remnant discovered by ASKAP
An international team of astronomers has accidentally discovered a new Galactic Supernova Remnant (SNR) named SNR G288.8-6.3 using the Australian Square Kilometer Array Pathfinder (ASKAP).…
Massive and multiphase fueloline outflow detected withinside the galaxy C-11142
An international team of astronomers used the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to make detailed spectroscopic observations of a galaxy called COSMOS-1142. As a result,…
A study from the James Webb Space Telescope reveals that there are fewer supermassive black holes than previously thought.
A study of part of the universe by the University of Kansas using the James Webb Space Telescope found that active galactic nuclei (AGNs), or…
First-ever observation of edge of accretion disk of supermassive black hole
Nothing evokes a spiral of existential perspectives more than looking at a picture of the galaxy. At first glance, these sublime buildings may seem rather…
The ultimate recoil of a black hole: what is the maximum high-energy impact impact?
Recent studies show that cosmic black holes can diffuse at incredible velocities approaching 10% of the speed of light. This is a very important discovery…
Gamma rays from young stars could explain mysterious sky vents
Recent advances in astronomy have shed light on the mysterious world of Tauri stars, young low-mass stars previously thought to emit only moderate levels of…
