BUFFALO, N.Y. — Imagine the formation of a black hole and you’ll probably envision a massive star running out of fuel and collapsing in on itself. Yet the chaotic conditions of the early universe may ...

A new paper explores the idea of asteroid-sized objects that may be causing gravitational ripples in our cosmic neighborhood. Reading time: Reading time 2 minutes Black holes are some of the most ...

Primordial black holes that formed during the earliest moments of the universe could have swollen quickly to supermassive sizes, complex cosmological simulations have revealed. The discovery could ...

A tiny black hole may pass through our solar system once every ten or so years, researchers have suggested, and this could be detected by watching Mars wobble. This estimate is based on an idea ...

NASA's Roman Space Telescope is gearing up for an unprecedented mission: hunting for elusive primordial black holes, a class of cosmic entities that have largely remained beyond the reach of modern ...

Moving through cosmic forests and spider webs in deep space in search of answers on the origin of the Cosmos. “We have tested a scenario in which dark matter is composed by non-stellar black holes, ...

To find black holes we usually have to look thousands of light-years away. But a new study suggests we could find evidence of them right here on Earth, as tiny tunnels they’ve carved out in rocks or ...

If a new proposal by physicists bears out, the recent detection of a record-setting neutrino could be the first evidence of elusive Hawking radiation. (Nanowerk News) The last gasp of a primordial ...
