Самую далёкую сверхновую SN Eos подтвердили, разложив её свет в спектр. Взрыв произошёл в среде, почти лишённой тяжёлых элементов, — прямое доказательство рождения массивных звёзд в ранней Вселенной. Открытие стало возможным только благодаря гравитационному линзированию и поможет уточнить темп рожде

Using a gravitational lens — a massive cluster of galaxies bending light — the James Webb Space Telescope detected two red dots in a distant galaxy. These are intermediate-mass black holes, located not in the center but on the outskirts. The discovery suggests such invisible objects might be widespr

The James Webb Telescope discovered that the mysterious red dots are not hot disks around black holes, but dense clouds of water vapor with temperatures around 2000–4000 °C. This reduced the mass estimates of black holes by an order of magnitude.

Using NIRCam on JWST, astronomers studied four supermassive quiescent galaxies whose light has been traveling to us for over 11 billion years. It turns out that in three of them, the color shifts smoothly from center to outskirts: red old cores surrounded by bluer, younger regions. This color map re

The Webb telescope spotted red dots that look like galactic cores with enormous black holes. But a fresh analysis suggests they might be modest-sized objects wrapped in a dense gas cocoon. Just as fog makes a lantern seem like a huge red ball, the gas distorts our estimates. Inside, there may not be
