Astronomers confirm the existence of a lone black hole

First-Ever 'Black Hole Triple' Formed Quietly Without a Massive Explosion

For decades, astronomers believed all compact objects like neutron stars and black holes received violent "natal kicks" during their formation. That theory just suffered a fatal blow. The post First-Ever ‘Black Hole Triple’ Formed Quietly Without a Massive Explosion appeared first on Study Finds.

Astronomers confirm the existence of a lone black hole

A team of astronomers at the Space Telescope Science Institute, working with one colleague from the University of St Andrews' Center for Exoplanet Science and another from the European Southern Observatory, has confirmed the existence of a lone black hole. In their paper published in The Astrophysical Journal, the group describes how they studied newer data regarding an object they had spotted several years ago to confirm its identity.

Yes, there really is a black hole on the loose in Sagittarius

Astronomers now agree: They’ve spotted the first isolated stellar-mass black hole ever seen.

NASA Hubble Space Telescope Helps Confirm the First Solitary Black Hole

In the Sagittarius constellation, a lone and first-ever solitary black hole has been discovered by a team of scientists. Although the discovery began in the year 2011, the observations have confirmed it recently. The size of this black hole is as massive as seven times of the sun. Despite the conflicts and differences of observations by another team of astronomers, the black hole was identified as solitary and not a neutron star.

Signs of a super -massive black hole hid in the nearby spiral galaxy

After decades of efforts, astronomers have found evidence that a super -massive black hole suggests in the middle of a nearby galaxy called Messier 83 or M83. Earlier there were hints that there could be a black hole in the middle, but it was not visible to regular telescopes, either because of the inactivity or […]
