This starts a complex process that generates a high-density, high-temperature train of plasma “bullets.” These “bullets” can ...

Supermassive black holes are behemoths that weigh in at several million to billion times the mass of our own sun. Like their ...

Researchers have discovered that ultra-fast wind surrounding a supermassive black hole is not smooth and continuous as ...

Those usually form long, straight beams but now astronomers have discovered a weird black hole that's spinning like a wonky top, firing off "bullets" of plasma in all directions. The object in ...

They then compared their results with real observations of the Bullet Cluster galaxy. The new work builds on a previous study in which members of the same team simulated the collision of two clouds of ...

This process creates a high-density and high-temperature train of plasma "bullets" in a confined area that can be accelerated and "shot out" directionally using magnetic fields to produce thrust.

It’s actually designed to fire rounds filled with ionized plasma, which in turn should ... a magnetic field and rapidly accelerates the bullet situated between them. Smyth’s gun is a bit ...
