Astronomers Found Strange, Accelerating X-Ray Pulses Coming From a Black Hole. They Might Be a Sign of an Orbiting White Dwarf
A supermassive black hole in a distant galaxy is once again surprising scientists. In 2018, a black hole called 1ES 1927+654, located about 270 million light-years away from Earth, showed its first signs of mysterious behavior.
Astronomers observe X-ray flashes from a nearby supermassive black hole that accelerate mysteriously
One supermassive black hole has kept astronomers glued to their scopes for the last several years. First came a surprise disappearance, and now, a precarious spinning act.
Supermassive black hole births jets, hosts orbiting white dwarf, all while astronomers watch
Since 2018, we've seen 1ES 1927+654 generate jets in real time and found it may have a lone white dwarf orbiting near the point of no return.
'Daredevil' white dwarf star could be closest-known object to a weird black hole
"This tells us that objects like white dwarfs may be able to live very close to an event horizon for a relatively extended period of time."
Mysterious flashing seen near supermassive black hole. Astronomers have an idea what it is
A black hole infamous for strange features has once again baffled astronomers, this time with rapid X-ray flashes. What could they be?
Strange Flashes Could Be Signs of Closest Object Seen Near a Black Hole
There, in the heart of a galaxy named 1ES 1927+654, squats a supermassive black hole whose monkeyshines and hijinks have baffled astronomers for years. Now, we might finally have an explanation for at least some of its wild misbehavior: an orbiting white dwarf star veering precariously close to the brink of the black hole's event horizon,
NASA Astronomers Zero In on the Number of Hidden Supermassive Black Holes
Researchers found far more hidden black holes than previously known, indicating plenty of behemoths lurking in thick clouds of gas and dust.
