Black holes demolish thousands of nearby stars to fuel growth, reveals new Chandra study

Anew survey of more than 100 galaxies has found that black holes break down thousands of stars and use their remains to pack weight. The present invention, made with the X-Ray Chandra NASA observatory, can help explain how mass-mass black holes are formed through a much smaller black hole growth.

While previous astronomers found many examples of black holes that rip apart stars, a little evidence had been seen for the destruction on a large scale, said NASA.

“When the stars are so close together like them in this very dense group, it provides a decent breeding place for medium-sized mass holes. When the stars are so close together like them in this very dense group, it provides a breeding place Decent. For medium mass black holes, “explained Vivienne Baldassare from Washington State University in Pullman, Washington, who led the research. Medium mass black holes are a lost relationship between mass-star-black holes that usually weighs 5 to 30 times the mass of the sun and the supermasive black hole that weigh millions or even billions of sun masses.

The theoretical work by the researchers implies that if the density of stars in a cluster across the threshold value, the mass-star black hole in the middle of the cluster will experience rapid growth because it is interesting, tearing up, near the closeness. In this Chandra study, clusters with density above this threshold about twice as possible contain black holes that grow as those under the threshold of density.

This finding is published in the Astrophysical Journal.
