Researchers have discovered that elusive intermediate-mass black holes could form in dense star clusters containing anywhere between tens of thousands to millions of tightly packed stars called “globular clusters.” An intermediate-mass black hole has a mass between 100 and 10,000 suns. They’re heftier than solar-mass black holes, which have a mass range between 10 and […]
