The European VLBI Network (EVN) observations show that it has a brightness temperature in excess of 100 million degrees kelvin. No radio emission is detected at the position of the M-dwarf star. This ...

The centers of galaxy clusters contain the universe’s most massive galaxies, which, in turn, contains gigantic black holes ranging in mass from millions to tens of billions of times that of the ...
