They have successfully simulated the 'Black Hole Bomb' theory in a lab. This theory, proposed in the 1970s, explores tapping into a black hole's rotational energy. The experiment involved a ...

Physicists have built the first ever black hole bomb, a long-theorised phenomenon where energy is boosted by a black hole and trapped by surrounding mirrors until an explosion occurs. Thankfully ...

Researchers have created a "black hole bomb" in the lab for the first time. In 1972, physicists William Press and Saul Teukolsky described a theoretical phenomenon called a black hole bomb ...

For the first time, astronomers have confirmed the existence of a lone black hole — one with no star orbiting it. It’s “the only one so far,” says Kailash Sahu, an astronomer at the Space ...

After decades of inactivity, the black hole at the galaxy's heart burst with light. Now, the cosmic monster appears to be doing something that is forcing astronomers to re-evaluate their ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) A novel optical device has been developed that mimics the behavior of both black and white holes. It operates on the principle of "coherent perfect absorption ...

Apr. 9, 2025 — Scientists have discovered key conditions needed for a stellar black hole to create plasma jets. Their findings show that when superheated gas material experiences a rapid ...

Discovery of extreme quasi-periodic eruptions in a newly accreting massive black hole. Nature Astronomy , 2025; DOI: 10.1038/s41550-025-02523-9 Cite This Page : ...

Most large and spiral-shaped galaxies have a black hole, but this was difficult to locate. After decades of efforts, astronomers have found evidence suggesting a supermassive black hole in the ...

This artist’s impression illustrates the mechanism that could be at the origin of the powerful bursts of X-ray light seen from a newly awakened black hole named Ansky. ESA; ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ...
