US astronomers find cosmic missing link black hole
A team of astronomers led by Dr. Dacheng Lin at the University of New Hampshire in Durham believes it has discovered evidence for a particularly elusive kind of black hole that may be a missing link to a wider understanding of these mysterious bodies. Lin's team used the Hubble telescope along with two X-ray measurements to observe what is called an intermediate-mass black hole.

A quantum physicist invented a new code from old tricks
Dr. Benjamin Brown from the School of Physics has developed a type of error-correcting code for quantum computers that will free up more hardware to do useful calculations. "Because quantum information is so fragile, it produces a lot of errors," said Dr. Brown, a research fellow at the University of Sydney Nano Institute.

Scientists discover fish migration route 4500 ft below sea level
A recently concluded study from a large number of collaborating groups in universities around the world has photographed evidence of a deep-sea fish migration route that was first theorized to exist when scientists noticed that deep-sea fish populations exhibited seasonal patterns. While the exact route is still unclear, scientists have managed to prove that the migration route exists 4,500 feet below sea level in the Atlantic Ocean.

Legendary physicist Freeman Dyson dies aged 96
Freeman Dyson, the famous mathematician and iconic physics professor at Princeton University, has died aged 96 due to injuries sustained from suffering a fall during his visit to the university. Dyson's contributions to physics include the famous Dyson Sphere, which has been featured in Star Trek, and the Dyson Tree, a genetically modified plant that would be able to survive a journey into space.

Scientists find the largest explosion since the Big Bang
A collaboration of scientists operating telescopes in the US, Europe, India, and Australia have found what they believe to be the greatest explosion in the universe since the Big Bang. The explosion is believed to have been caused by a supermassive black hole in the Ophiuchus galaxy cluster containing thousands of galaxies. The black hole blew a one-and-a-half-million light-year hole in the middle of the cluster.
