Scientists explain how black hole spin causes flickering X-ray light

The Ministry of Science & Technology announced on 23 October 2026 that researchers from the Aryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences (ARIES) have identified a mechanism explaining why matter around rapidly spinning black holes emits oscillating X-rays. Using computer simulations, the study found that a black hole's spin influences the movement of accretion shocks, where rapid spin pulls shocks closer to the black hole to produce a wider range of frequencies.

Researchers identify causes of microwave brightening at the Sun's poles

The Ministry of Science & Technology announced on 12 October 2026 that a collaborative study has investigated why the Sun's poles appear brighter at specific microwave and radio frequencies. Using nearly 30 years of data, researchers found that this brightening is strongly linked to the size of polar coronal holes and the strength of the Sun's polar magnetic field.
