Not exact matches

These gravitational waves were generated by two black holes — eight and 14 times the mass of the sun — merging together 1.4 billion light years away from Earth.

Black hole coalescences aren't expected to generate light that could be spotted by telescopes, but another prime candidate could: a smashup between two remnants of stars known as neutron stars.

Taken with the orbiting Chandra Observatory, it shows the hottest, most violent objects in the galaxy: black holes gobbling down matter, gas heated to millions of degrees by dense, whirling neutron stars, and the high - energy radiation from stars that have exploded, sending out vast amounts of material that slam into surrounding gas, creating shock waves that heat the gas tremendously, generating X-rays.

Microlensing by a 30 - solar - mass black hole should generate a rapid echo of a burst, making the black hole easier to detect.

As early as 2021 it will be joined by the Einstein Probe, a wide - field x-ray sentinel for transient phenomena such as gamma ray bursts and the titanic collisions of neutron stars or black holes that generate gravitational waves.

Gravitational waves detectable from Earth are generated by collisions of massive objects, such as when two black holes or neutron stars merge.

For this theory to work, the beams released by black holes would have to have strong, self - generated magnetic fields and the rotation of particles around the fields would then give off powerful bursts of gamma ray radiation.

BlackGEM is going to hunt down optical counterparts of sources of gravitational waves — tiny ripples in spacetime generated by colliding black holes and neutron stars and detected for the first time in 2015 by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational - Wave Observatory (LIGO).

The detector will pick up gravitational waves generated by binary supermassive black holes, ultra-compact binaries and small black holes falling into supermassive black holes.

Four decades after surprising the physics world by showing that black holes might generate radiation and evaporate, Stephen Hawking has now published research describing how information might survive to escape from such an astronomical sink hole, too, The New York Times reports.

The rapid rotation created by mass transfer between the two stars appears necessary to generate the ultra-strong magnetic field and then a second mass transfer phase allows the magnetar - to - be to slim down sufficiently so that it does not collapse into a black hole at the moment of its death.

Gravity waves should be generated by many sources, including colliding black holes and exploding stars, but LISA should also be able to detect waves created immediately after the birth of the cosmos.

He developed a theory that posits the existence of a vast number of unseen universes, each generated by the collapse of a black hole.

Within this fragmenting disk, compression spurred on by the black hole appeared to generate temperatures high enough to sustain the formation of very massive stars.

Until recently, it was not clear what prevented the delicate filaments from being destroyed by competing gravitational forces, but Hubble Space Telescope images suggest they are supported by magnetic fields generated near the galaxy's central black hole.

Gravitational waves are ripples in the fabric of space - time generated by some of the most violent events in the universe, such as the merging of two black holes.

The team also succeeded in explaining, with a theoretical model, that the actual changes (balance of inflow and outflow) in gas levels they observed were the result of the increasing amount of gas falling into the supermassive black holes within the gas disks enhanced by strong turbulence generated by supernova explosions (an activity associated with star formation) when a star inside the dense gas disks dies.

Like the historic first detection announced this past February, these gravitational waves were also generated by the merger of two black holes.

By hurling protons together at 14 trillion electron volts, it will create the kinds of high - energy collisions that are supposed to generate microscopic black holes.

A new study suggests that the gravitational waves detected by the LIGO experiment must have come from black holes generated during the collapse of stars, and not in the earliest phases of the Universe.

The supermassive black hole in the AGN devours surrounding materials by its strong gravity and generates a disk around the black hole.

The first two detections of gravitational waves generated by the collision of two black holes were reported last year.

Supported by the National Science Foundation, IceCube is capable of capturing the fleeting signatures of high - energy neutrinos — nearly massless particles generated, presumably, by dense, violent objects such as supermassive black holes, galaxy clusters, and the energetic cores of star - forming galaxies.

For the fourth time, scientists have detected the gravitational waves generated by two colliding black holes.

The gravitational waves were generated by the merger of two medium - size black holes about 1.3 billion years ago, researchers said.

Astronomers believe that supermassive, central black holes generate the radio, X-ray, and gamma - ray energy radiated by active galaxies such as Centaurus A, as well as quasars like SDSS J1030 +0524.

But today it seems like black holes - given how much energy they emit - can actually be important for modulating galaxy assembly, by regulating star formation and generating hot gas reservoirs.
