During the survey, researchers identified a promising 8.19-millisecond pulsar (MSP) candidate located close to Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy.

Gravitational lenses could allow us to find black hole binaries long before we're able to measure their gravitational waves.

New ALMA observations reveal a complex network of gas filaments in the Milky Way’s central 650 light-years, enabling detailed studies of star formation in extreme galactic conditions.

The Milky Way’s centre looks nothing like the calm band of starlight you see from a dark hillside. In a new, ultra-wide radio mosaic, the region turns into a tangle of cold, threadlike gas structures.

ALMA’s most ambitious galactic survey yet exposes a wild, filament-filled stellar nursery at the very heart of the Milky Way. Astronomers have produced a remarkable new view of the center of the Milky ...

Astronomers have dived into the turbulent and chaotic heart of the Milky Way, discovering hidden chemistry around our galaxy's supermassive black hole.

Using the Chile-based ALMA telescope, the researchers examined the dynamics and chemistry of a central region.
