Jet exits the black hole in less than a second
Black holes are still like an ocean of mysteries. Astronomers are striving to understand these superpowers of the universe. Although we know many basic information about them, but many information remains a mystery even today. Now a new information has come to the fore, which is being mentioned in today’s news.
Scientists have detected for the first time a change in the intensity of a jet emanating from a small black hole. Astrophysics scientists from Wuhan University have made this discovery. In this event, astronomers have identified the mystery in a jet of magnetic plasma being emitted by a small black hole filled with gas and dust.
Researcher scientist Prof. Wei Wang and his team have disclosed this. This discovery was made on the GRS 1915+105 microquasar black hole. Quasars are extremely luminous supermassive black holes that can be millions or billions of times more massive than the Sun. Scientists have been studying for a long time about the power, type and reaction of black holes. Actually, a lot of information about black holes is still not available. A large group of scientists in the world are working to understand them. The study is based on data obtained from the Five Hundred Meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST) in China. Scientists were engaged in this search for three years. Scientists say that GRS 1915+105 is a regular star orbiting a stellar black hole orbiting a supermassive black hole. Some of the material of this star is drawn into the black hole. But after swallowing the material is not digested and spits it out. In which the jet comes out at high speed and it is clearly visible coming out of the poles of the black hole. In this discovery, the energy coming out of the jet was measured and the changes in it were seen during this time. Scientists observed this rare astronomical phenomenon twice, occurring in less than a decimal second.
This research can shed light on the energy received by black holes
The event was observed approximately 28,000 light-years away from Earth in the direction of the constellation Aquila. This phenomenon can reveal the energy the black hole gets as food. Scientists say that this jet and microquasar seen in radio waves is the first evidence of change in black hole. With this discovery, important information can be gathered in the further study of black holes.
