The 2023 Nobel Prize for chemistry isn’t the first Nobel awarded for research in nanotechnology. But it is perhaps the most colorful application of the technology to be associated with the accolade.

A new simulation could help solve one of astronomy’s longstanding mysteries—how supermassive black holes formed so rapidly—along with a new one: What are the James Webb Space Telescope’s (JWST) ...

Scientists using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope now think the "little red dots" spotted in the early universe could be a new kind of space object. They call it a "black hole star." Credit: T.

The Chalmers researchers used a novel, atomically thin material in tiny memory devices, here seen as clusters of golden dots on the top of the chip. The material combines two opposing magnetic forces ...

What if the mysterious 'Little Red Dots' aren't baby black holes, but rather globular clusters in their messy, glorious formation?
