LHAASO identifies black holes as source of cosmic ray knee phenomenon
Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Nov 18, 2025 The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) has released results that clarify the origin of the knee in the cosmic ray energy spectrum. This feature, recognized by its sharp decline in cosmic ray numbers above 3 PeV, has puzzled researchers for nearly 70 years. Recent studies published in National Science Review and Science Bulletin reveal that micro-quasars powered by black hole accretion serve as major particle accelerators in the Milky Way and are responsible for producing the knee. ... read more |

Systematic neutrino search narrows origins for high-energy cosmic particles
Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Oct 28, 2025 A research team from Tohoku University led the first systematic optical search for counterparts to a high-energy neutrino multiplet event detected by the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. Multiplet events involve multiple neutrinos observed from a single direction in a short period, and may point to powerful cosmic phenomena such as supernovae or stars disrupted by black holes. The team analyzed wide-field optical telescope data matching the time and location of the neutrino signals. No supernovae, ti ... read more
