A new analysis of gravitational-wave detections suggests that roughly 14% of merging binary black holes belong to a second ...

What happens when two black holes become connected through an inextricable quantum link? Calculations suggest that this can give rise to a bumpy space-time tunnel called the “Einstein-Rosen ...

Here's what you'll learn when you read this story: A wormhole in nature (for select values of "nature," of course) might be a similarly higher-dimensional shape that does not act the same when ...

Wormholes are often imagined as tunnels through space or time — shortcuts across the universe. But this image rests on a misunderstanding of work by physicists Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen. In ...

For decades, astronomers have pictured galaxies and their central black holes growing together. In the familiar story, a young galaxy forms first. Gas gathers. Stars ignite. Somewhere near the crowded ...
