A series of studies sheds light on the origins and characteristics of intermediate-mass black holes.

In the world of black holes, there are generally three size categories: stellar-mass black holes (about five to 50 times the mass of the sun), supermassive black holes (millions to billions of ...

Binary black holes release energy in the form of gravitational waves — ripples in space-time that specialized observatories can detect.

The giant holes in galaxies’ centers shouldn’t be able to combine, yet combine they do. Scientists suggest that an unusual form of dark matter may be the solution.

“This was our first evidence that black hole binaries do overcome the final-parsec problem,” said Laura Blecha, an astrophysicist at the University of Florida. So how do they do it? Astrophysicists ...
