Scientists using the XRISM satellite have uncovered a major clue to one of astronomy’s longstanding mysteries: why galaxy ...

Astronomers have explained how a galaxy cluster maintains its heat, despite emitting X-rays that cool the hot gas at its center. The group discovered the existence of a fast-moving, high-temperature ...

Supermassive black holes shoot energy in bullet-like bursts rather than steady winds, affecting galaxy formation.

Supermassive black holes are behemoths that weigh in at several million to billion times the mass of our own sun. Like their ...

Researchers have discovered that ultra-fast wind surrounding a supermassive black hole is not smooth and continuous as ...

For a supermassive black hole to turn into a quasar, something must bring material for it to feed on near to it. This is ...

Researchers have discovered that ultra-fast wind surrounding a supermassive black hole is not smooth and continuous as previously assumed, but instead ...

Thanks to the X-ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM), a JAXA-led international space telescope, researchers have now resolved powerful outflows for PDS 456. It turns out, they are weird.

Supermassive black holes are unleashing high-energy outbursts that behave more like bullets than breezes, according to a new ...
