AGU strongly supports the global scientific community: the weight…
A detailed set of simulations by astrophysicists at the Flatiron Institute and their collaborators showed that magnetic fields can produce black holes with masses previously thought unattainable. In 2023, astronomers recorded a dramatic cosmic event. Two unusually large black holes collided about 7 billion light years from Earth, and their […] #Scientists #Finally #Explain #Mysterious…
