Astrobites reports on a black hole that’s far too massive for its host galaxy, and whether this system could ever reach “normal” proportions.
Using a neural network, researchers have discovered 3,500 candidate strong gravitational lenses in data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument.
After the DART spacecraft smashed into Dimorphos, a cloud of ejecta expanded outward. A recent study builds a 3D reconstruction of the ejecta and determines that it’s more complex than previous models considered.
Did the disappearance of a star in the Andromeda Galaxy signal the creation of a black hole? New infrared and X-ray data help to discern what remained after the star disappeared.
Astrobites reports on how astronomers are using JWST to figure out if star clusters are really as old as they seem.
Researchers investigate whether the Milky Way’s smallest known satellite is a tiny dwarf galaxy or a star cluster.
What’s new with AT 2024wpp, GRB 250702B, and GW231123? Get updates on these three exceptional astrophysical transients in today’s Monthly Roundup.
Researchers search for a connection between short-lived black hole accretion events and neutrinos — elusive, neutral, nearly massless particles.
