The JWST Finds More Overmassive Black Holes. This Time In Dwarf Galaxies The JWST has shown us that supermassive black holes were much larger in the early Universe than we thought. New research has extended this understanding to more intermediate redshifts, and to dwarf galaxies. Could the often-invoked Super-Eddington accretion be responsible?

Recent Surveys Reveal Dwarf Galaxies May Not Contain Supermassive Black Holes A new study, analyzing over 1,600 galaxies observed with Chandra over two decades, suggests that smaller galaxies do not contain supermassive black holes nearly as often as larger galaxies do.

A stunning composite image of Hickson Compact Group 31, a group of dwarf galaxies in the constellation Eridanus, merging over a billion years.  The image, created from data from Spitzer, GALEX, and Hubble telescopes, shows colliding galaxies, stellar bridges, and trails of stars indicating a dynamic galactic dance.  This cosmic collision will eventually form a single elliptical galaxy.

False-color mosaic image of the Milky Way Galaxy, highlighting high-velocity clouds (HVCs) as bright orange and red regions.  One particularly large HVC, showing low metallicity, is circled.  The image reveals the complex interplay of gas flows and the potential origins of these fast-moving clouds, either from supernova explosions or merging dwarf galaxies. The Milky Way galaxy is shown as a lighter band across the center.
