Black hole explosion may soon reveal origins of matter in the universe![]() ![]() Los Angeles CA (SPX) Sep 11, 2025 Physicists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst report a more than 90% probability that astronomers could witness an exploding black hole within the next decade. If observed, the event would provide unprecedented insight into the foundations of physics and the origins of the universe. Such an explosion would strongly suggest the existence of primordial black holes (PBHs), theoretical objects formed in the first second after the Big Bang. Unlike stellar black holes, PBHs could be light enough ... read more |
