New research explains why some black holes are missing, showing how exploding stars stop certain black holes from forming.

The new study suggests that primordial black holes helped create the matter-antimatter imbalance, resulting in the formation of matter as we know it.

This illustration shows a pair-instability supernova explosion. These types of explosions leave nothing behind, not even a black hole. They can explain the black hole Forbidden Gap in black hole ...
