    An extremely luminous X-ray outburst at the birth of a supernova

    Massive stars end their short lives in spectacular explosions—supernovae—that synthesize new elements and drive galaxy evolution. Historically, supernovae were discovered mainly through their ‘delayed’ optical...

    Finding Faint Intermediate-Mass Black Holes in the Radio Band

    We discuss the prospects for detecting faint intermediate-mass black holes, such as those predicted to exist in the cores of globular clusters and dwarf spheroidal galaxies. We briefly summarize the difficulti...
