Astronomers have detected fast-repeating radio bursts from a distant "dead" galaxy that should not contain the energy to ...

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are brief emissions of radio waves, lasting a fraction of a second but with as much energy as the ...

Astronomer Calvin Leung was excited last summer to crunch data from a newly commissioned radio telescope to precisely pinpoint the origin of repeated bursts of intense radio waves—so-called fast radio ...

Investigating the enigmatic origins of fast radio bursts (FRBs) has taken a surprising turn. These millisecond-long radio ...

Astronomers have traced a mysterious fast radio burst to an unexpected place — an ancient, massive galaxy far removed from ...

This rare quasar with spiral arms could help astronomers understand how supermassive black holes feed and grow.

Astronomers have detected fast-repeating radio bursts (FRBs) from a distant galaxy that is considered "dead," which contradicts previous expectations about the source of these energetic signals. FRBs ...

Large stars have cosmically short lifetimes, so the fact that this FRB occurred in an old, long-dead galaxy means that the ...

These FRBs, named FRB 20240209A, are located outside of the massive ancient elliptical galaxy it is associated with that only contains old and dead stars, Shah said. FILE - This image provided by ...

The image of M87*, the supermassive black hole at the center of massive elliptical galaxy M87, changed the world. It was the ...
