Gravitational waves stretch and squeeze the fabric of space and time itself. When space/time is squeezed, pulsar pulses ...

A high-speed crash between two dwarf galaxies might explain a unique feature in space – and provide useful information on ...

A groundbreaking simulation reveals how neutron star mergers forge black holes, generate gamma-ray bursts, and scatter gold ...

In a recently published paper in Physical Review Letters, scientists propose a comprehensive theoretical framework indicating that gravitational wave signals from black hole mergers are more complex ...

Caltech simulations reveal what happens when black holes collide with neutron stars—violent cracking, intense shock waves, ...

Could Mysterious Black Hole Burps Rewrite Physics?

A computer simulation shows how two neutron stars of unequal mass merge, form a black hole and spit out a jet of high energy matter.

Astronomers have spotted a supermassive black hole ripping apart and devouring a star in colliding galaxies. It is only the second time a tidal disruption event has been seen in interacting galaxies.

NASA has confirmed a massive black hole collision in a nearby galaxy, releasing an enormous amount of gravitational waves across the cosmos. This event, detected through space telescopes and ...

New images show a collision of two enormous black holes, and it's the most distant black hole merger ever detected. The collision happened just 740 million years after the big bang event that ...
