Scientists Develop New Approach to Capture Gravitational Wave Memory from Supernovae
A study published in Physical Review Letters highlights new methods to detect the gravitational wave memory effect, a unique phenomenon predicted by Einstein's general relativity. Core-collapse supernovae (massive stellar explosions) generate these low-frequency gravitational waves, offering a rare glimpse into stellar interiors. Despite their weak...

123 Bodies Found in England's Ancient Leicester Cathedral: What You Need to Know
In Leicester, archaeologists uncovered a mass burial pit containing 123 bodies, dating back to the early 12th century. The cause of death remains unclear, though theories point to famine or pestilence. Radiocarbon dating revealed the bodies predated the Black Death, further deepening the mystery. The find offers a glimpse into medieval life and dea...

Black Holes Explosions Driven by Hawking Radiation May Unveil New Physics
Primordial black holes, potentially formed shortly after the Big Bang, may be undergoing explosions across the universe, driven by Hawking radiation. Physicists believe that capturing these rare events could reveal undiscovered particles and fundamental physics. Dr. Marco Calzà and Dr. João G. Rosa from the University of Coimbra have proposed way...

James Webb Space Telescope Spots Massive Black Hole With Half the Mass of Its Surrounding Galaxy
A groundbreaking discovery has been made with the identification of a remarkably massive black hole in the quasar ULAS J1120+0641. This black hole, with a mass of 1.4 billion solar masses, constitutes nearly half of the total mass of its host galaxy. Observations were made using the James Webb Space Telescope, which provided unprecedented detail in...

Black Hole Mergers Explained: What Happens When Two Black Holes Collide in Space?
Black hole mergers are among the most energetic events in space. Two black holes gradually lose energy through gravitational interactions, drawing them closer until their event horizons stretch and merge. Gravitational waves released during the process are some of the most powerful forces in the universe, with part of the black holes' mass converti...

Supermassive Black Holes Might Be Responsible for the Death of a Galaxy, Says Study
Supermassive black holes might be influencing galactic star formation and triggering the death of galaxies, claims a new stuy. Recent research has shed light on how the birth and death of a galaxy, also known as galactic cycle occurs. This study reveals that the mass of a supermassive black hole can significantly impact the amount of cold gas avail...

NASA Citizen Scientists Discover Mysterious Object Moving out of Milky Way at an Extremely High Speed
On August 15, 2024, NASA’s Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 project, featuring the contributions of dedicated citizen scientists, made a groundbreaking discovery: an object moving at an astonishing speed of 1 million miles per hour, which will soon escape the gravitational pull of the Milky Way. This hypervelocity object, catalogued as CWISE J124909.08+...
