Findings: This 1-2 million-year-old, 5-10 Jupiter-mass rogue ramped up growth 8x from steady to frenzy, with a 2016 repeat—plus first-ever water vapor detection in its disk during the spurt.

Astronomers at Italy's Palermo Astronomical Observatory, using the Very Large Telescope and JWST, caught Cha 1107-7626 (620 light-years away) in a record-breaking accretion burst, gobbling 6.6 billion tons of gas and dust per second.

URI Gravity Research group contributes to major black hole discovery, expands astrophysics program
KINGSTON, R.I. – Oct. 6, 2025 – In 1915, Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity predicted that black hole collisions could only be detected from Earth by searching for gravitational waves. In September 2015, about a century after Einstein’s prediction, black holes were observed merging for the first time by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO).  […]

Using 4-km laser arms, LIGO captures these ripples; URI's models simulate mergers, refining data analysis for future giants like the 40-km Cosmic Explorer.
