(For older, even more distant galaxies, the researchers were not able to see black hole activity as clearly, but they did set upper limits on x-ray luminosity.)

Contrary to the idea of black holes sucking everything, even light, into inconceivable nothingness, Hawking proposed that there was one thing that could escape a black hole's intractable grip: thermal radiation, now known to all as Hawking radiation.

But within the Milky Way's invisible heart lurks something even darker: a black hole about 4 million times as massive as the sun.

Ten linked equations — Einstein's field equations — describe precisely how space - time is curved for any given distribution of matter and energy, even for something as extreme as a black hole.

Black holes were once regarded as one - way paths to oblivion because of their tremendous gravitational fields that, the theory went, allowed nothing — not even light — to escape.

MHD simulations, the magnetism of electrically conducting fluids such as black hole jets, add a layer of understanding but are notoriously difficult for even the fastest supercomputers.

Unlike black holes, which hide their mass behind an event horizon even as they crash, colliding neutron stars spew hot, bright matter across space.

Once known as a frozen star, a black hole is formed when a massive star burns out and collapses upon itself, ultimately producing gravitational energy so powerful that not even light can escape from it.

Even if the star was rotating very slowly before it collapsed into a black hole, the collapsing material that ultimately forms the nascent hole must spin ever faster for the same reason whirling figure skaters accelerate as they pull in their arms.

Gebhardt says the black hole's event horizon — the edge from within nothing can escape, not even light — is four times as large as the orbit of Neptune, the outermost planet in our solar system.

To probe the cloud, the team used an even more distant quasar — a hugely bright light source powered by a supermassive black hole — as a backlight.

The current model of active galaxies such as M87 posits that each one harbors at its center a black hole many millions or even billions of times more massive than our own sun, all packed into a space about the size of our solar system.

Those furious feeding rates still seem to defy the black holes» supermassive size: A 100 - solar - mass black hole accreting at the limit should take about 800 million years to reach a billion solar masses, even taking into account that it would eat faster as it grew.

In rare cases, black hole births are even more spectacular, with the star firing out powerful jets of high - energy radiation as it dies — a phenomenon known as a gamma - ray burst.

Almost as soon as the detectors were turned on — even before scientific data - taking had formally begun — scientists detected the minuscule undulations of their first black hole collision.

As matter is sent whirling into a black hole, tugged ever harder by the hole's irresistible gravity, the material heats up, and along its wild ride it radiates that heat away as light, until it disappears past the black hole's «event horizon» — the border beyond which nothing, not even light, can escape the hole's violent gravitational pulAs matter is sent whirling into a black hole, tugged ever harder by the hole's irresistible gravity, the material heats up, and along its wild ride it radiates that heat away as light, until it disappears past the black hole's «event horizon» — the border beyond which nothing, not even light, can escape the hole's violent gravitational pulas light, until it disappears past the black hole's «event horizon» — the border beyond which nothing, not even light, can escape the hole's violent gravitational pull.

As the galaxy forms stars and increases its mass in a constant and substantial manner, its black hole grows as well, and does so at an even faster rate,» explains MancusAs the galaxy forms stars and increases its mass in a constant and substantial manner, its black hole grows as well, and does so at an even faster rate,» explains Mancusas well, and does so at an even faster rate,» explains Mancuso.

Other possibilities — such as intrinsic fluctuations in the star's luminosity or even a black hole with a cold and dusty debris disk drifting across our interstellar line of sight — could also still fit the data.

Their targets are the supermassive black hole at the heart of our Milky Way galaxy, known as Sagittarius A *, and an even bigger one in the neighboring galaxy M87.

Gravitational microlensing works by a planetary body — or any body for that matter with significant mass, such as a brown dwarf or even a black hole — passing in front of a star.

A widely accepted idea has described this phenomenon as: the strong radiation from the galactic center in which the supermassive black hole locates ionizes (* 1) the surrounding gas and affects even molecular gas that is the ingredient of star formation; the strong radiation activates (* 2) or suppresses (* 3) the star formation of galaxies.

Furthermore, previous studies suggest the radiation emitted during the growth of the black hole controlled, or even stopped, the creation of stars as the released energy heated up the gas.

Although they're often viewed as insatiable devourers of all matter, even the supermassive black holes have their limits.

Researchers think these bubbles drag trails of relatively cooler gas (about 1 million degrees), and as the bubbles detach from the jets and drift farther out into the galaxy, the cooler gas trails become even cooler, becoming extremely cold (just slight above absolute zero), and rain back on the black hole as fuel for star formation.
