Einstein believed that black holes didn't really exist. But they do: that much we know. We don't know much else about them.

It is called a black hole, because it acts like an ideal black body, as it reflects no light. According to the theory of ...

Astronomers have detected a lone black hole drifting through the Milky Way—an unprecedented discovery made possible by ...

This forms part of a framework of theories extending beyond Einstein’s equations. Black holes are objects whose gravity is strong enough to trap light, and the traditional black hole of general ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. At the beginning of time and the center of every black hole lies a point of infinite density called a singularity. To explore these ...

Supermazes” are theoretical structures that provide a fresh blueprint for understanding the microscopic complexity of black ...

In a framework of theories extending beyond Einstein's equations, supermazes provide a detailed portrait of the microscopic structure of brane black holes. Black holes are objects whose gravity is ...

However, Einstein's equations predict the existence of singularities, which proves to be problematic. According to the new theory, black holes may not have a central singularity. Read also ...

Physicists are reshaping our understanding of black holes in new research that maps theoretical structures within them known as “supermazes.” ...
