We are pleased to announce the 8th BH Nepal meeting: Many Faces of Stellar-Mass Black Holes, which will take place in Kathmandu, Nepal, on 12-16 October 2026.

The aim of the conference is to bring together theorists and observers to discuss recent progress in the study of stellar-mass black holes, their formation and evolution, and their observational signatures across the electromagnetic spectrum and beyond.

The main scientific topics will include:
– Black hole mergers,
– Spin measurements and the spin controversy,
– X-ray polarization,
– Jets,
– Extended TeV emission,
– Collapsars,
– Ultraluminous sources with black holes.
