Astronomers at the University of Hawaii uncovered black hole events so packed with energy, they were the biggest explosions seen since the Big Bang.

Scientists could turn to black holes for cheaper, natural alternatives to expensive facilities searching for dark matter.

The Big Bang is often described as the explosive birth of the universe—a singular moment when space, time and matter sprang ...

By adapting mathematical techniques used in particle physics, researchers in Germany have developed an approach that could ...

One of the papers, published last year, describes the simulated results of quakes on the surface of neutron stars before they ...
