The plasma that makes up the accretion disk comes from farther out in the galaxy. When two galaxies collide and merge, gas is funneled into the central region of that merger.

A black hole is an object so massive that it warps the fabric of space-time, and its gravity is so strong that not even light can escape from it.

The vibrant pops are thought to be the result of plasma being squeezed by the black hole's accretion disk.

An artist’s concept shows the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy, known as Sagittarius A*, surrounded by a swirling accretion disk of hot gas, in this undated ...

Researchers conducted innovative simulations of spinning black holes grounded in general relativity, which clarified that the ultraluminous accretion disk (i.e., gaseous spiral surrounding a black ...

To understand the mysteries surrounding black holes, researchers at Tohoku University have created a simulation of accretion disk turbulence that possesses the highest-resolution currently available.

Newly spotted black hole has mass of 17 billion Suns, adding another daily An accretion disk 7 light-years across powers an exceptionally bright galaxy.

The gas and dust accumulate in a flat disk around the star, known as an accretion disk, as a result of strong gravitational forces.
