In the first quintillionth of a second, the universe may have sprouted microscopic black holes with enormous amounts of nuclear charge, MIT physicists propose.

Analysis of two major cosmic blasts deepens the mystery of where the universe’s ‘heavy’ elements come from.

2024 marks 25 years since NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory started detecting X-rays from energetic astronomical events.

The results offer a new way to probe supermassive black holes and their evolution across the universe.

An international team of astronomers, led by the University of Cambridge, has used the James Webb Space Telescope to find evidence for an ongoing merger of two

Studying theoretical, fast-spinning black holes is helping physicists understand more about the elusive black holes out in the universe.

The observations suggest some of earliest “monster” black holes grew from massive cosmic seeds.

Tau neutrinos are notoriously difficult to spot in detectors like IceCube. But researchers have managed to isolate 7 candidates.

The award recognizes exceptional distinction in teaching, research, and service at MIT.

"...there are strong, twisted, and organized magnetic fields near the black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy."
