Galaxy NGC1385 is one of 29 galaxies in this sample that showed evidence of black holes growing. … [+]Near their centers.
Astronomers might have found the missing link in black hole evolution.
NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory surveyed nearly 100 galaxies. Researchers found 29 that could be intermediate-class black holes.
These new results suggest that there is a path for at least some black holes to reach their current size and starvation on a scale that has never been seen before. Chandra officials stated in a ReleaseMore information about the research. Black holes, in other words, are destroying thousands of stars in an effort to gain weight.
This is a great help to researchers trying to find out the evolution and evolution of black holes. We can spot the largest stars and the most massive ones within galaxies. However, the class between 100-100,000. solar masses is still unknown. This group is crucial for understanding the early universe.
The Milky Way’s central galactic point can be seen from the Uruguayan countryside, near the village, on May 10, 2019. … [+]Andresito.
The study suggests that intermediate-sized dark holes could be affected by their environment, especially if they arise in dense clusters of stars within some galaxies.
The release said that the team’s theory suggests that if the density (number of stars) in a cluster is higher than a threshold value, then a stellar mass black hole at its center will experience rapid growth. It will pull in, shred and ingest the abundant nearby stars.
The lead author is keen to continue X-ray astronomy with a larger sample to verify that the theory holds. Although this does not prove the existence of massive black holes, it provides an observational test that can be used to support future work, Vivienne Baldassare (an assistant professor of physics, astronomy, and Washington State University) stated in a recent statement. blog post.
A paper based upon the research was published in The Astronomical Journal.
