Stellar-mass black holes at galactic centers: new hints from distant galaxies
New hints about stellar-mass black holes at galactic centers For decades, astronomers have known that almost every galaxy hosts a supermassive black hole at its core. Now, a growing body of theoretical and observational work suggests there could also be a hidden population of stellar-mass black holes in some galactic centers, particularly in distant galaxies…

Possible Black-Hole Stars at Galaxy Centers Revealed by New Study
Introduction: a tantalizing hint from the hearts of distant galaxies A new study proposes the existence of a novel class of objects—what researchers are calling black-hole stars—at the centers of some distant galaxies. The claim, based on careful analysis of high-resolution data from modern observatories, suggests that unusual stellar dynamics and compact sources near galactic…
