Unexplained Gamma-Rays from the Galactic Center Could be from Self-Annihilating Dark Matter
2+ day, 7+ hour ago (417+ words) In 2009, astronomers using the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope discovered an excess of energy in the Milky Way's galactic center. Deep observations found no source for the energy, called the Galactic Center GeV Excess (GCE). What's generating it? Research in Physical…...
Astronomers Unmask a Supernova Impostor
3+ day, 7+ hour ago (862+ words) A distant star has captured astronomers' attention over the past decade, teasing them with indications that it will soon explode as a supernova. But new research shows that something else entirely is behind the star's outbursts. Rather than an impending…...
Next-Gen Gravitational Wave Detectors Could Spot the First Black Holes
3+ day, 15+ hour ago (157+ words) A few hundred million years after the Big Bang, the first stars ignited - literally the “let there be light” moment for the universe. Now known to astronomers as Population III, or Pop III, stars, these giants were very different from…...
Do Black Holes Grow Along With the Universe? A New Study Says Yes
4+ day, 15+ hour ago (105+ words) As with many insightful theoretical breakthroughs, it comes at a time of contradictory observational evidence. Thomas Kuhn would be proud. Over the past few years, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and other new observatories have been looking back to…...
Quiet Black Holes With a Stellar Companion Raise Questions About How They Form
5+ day, 11+ hour ago (161+ words) Each of the quiet black holes we've discovered this way has a small stellar companion. This means that in the past these were asymmetrical binaries, meaning that one of the stars was much larger than the other. The remnants of…...
A Pair of White Dwarfs Locked in a Six-Minute Orbit Might One Day Be Observed By Gravitational Waves
6+ day, 11+ hour ago (31+ words) Future gravitational wave observatories will be able to see the gravitational waves of close-orbiting binary stars. A newly studied white dwarf system could be one of the first systems we observe....
Pulsar Timing Arrays Could Look for Evidence of Dark Matter Stars
1+ week, 1+ day ago (41+ words) Pulsar Timing Arrays have been used to observe the background of gravitational waves in our galaxy. We aren't certain of their origin, but a new study shows a strong source could be early supermassive giants known as dark stars....
New Study Expands Search for "Dark Photons," a Leading Dark Matter Candidate
1+ week, 2+ day ago (165+ words) Cross-disciplinary research at Perimeter Institute and University of Maryland shows that dark photons could be lurking in more places than previously thought....
Physicists Determine Cause of "Runaway" Supermassive Black Hole
1+ week, 3+ day ago (20+ words) Researchers at UCSB and UT Austin have determined that a galactic merger kicked a supermassive black hole into intergalactic space....
Simulations Show That Dark Matter Isn't What Gives Stellar Streams Their Kinks
1+ week, 3+ day ago (530+ words) Universe Today Ah, that ever-elusive dark matter. Although there has been some tantalizing evidence suggesting the detection of a dark matter particle, the data isn't strong enough to be conclusive. So astronomers continue to rely upon indirect evidence and computer…...
