Supermassive Black Holes News

alt
The active galactic nucleus is a compact region at the center of a newly discovered galaxy The active galactic nuclei release huge amounts of ionized particles and energy into the galaxy and its environment These ultimately contribute to the growth of the medium around the galaxy and ultimately the evolution of the galaxy itself.
alt
The dwarf galaxies under observation were still accumulating gas which should re-start star formation in a red, dead galaxy but wasn't.
alt
The study published in the journal Nature Astronomy sheds light on a class of black holes having a mass upwards of one million times the mass of the Sun.   
alt
SOFIA flies above 99 percent of the Earth's water vapour, enabling the research group to characterise the properties of the torus-shaped dust structures at far-infrared wavelengths.
alt
When a black hole swallows too much, the excess matter is converted into two jet-flows perpendicular to the accretion disk of the black hole, which is like a glutton with a bloated belly belching.
alt
Scientists have discovered supermassive black holes in two ultra-compact dwarf galaxies.
alt
The findings come after a similar feature was found in another ultra-compact dwarf galaxy three years ago.
alt
Such galactic outflows are driven by the huge energy output from the active and turbulent centres of galaxies.
alt
Supermassive black holes are millions to billions times more massive than our Sun.
alt
Monster black holes, it seems, also sometimes lurk behind gas and dust, hiding from the gaze of most telescopes.
alt
Over the last few billion years, a mysterious kind of galactic warming has caused many galaxies to change from a lively place where new stars formed every now and then to a quiet place devoid of fresh young stars. 
alt
The jet, found in the system known as B3 0727+409, is at least 300,000 light years.  
alt
The only way it could get larger is if a star happened to fall straight in or another black hole merged with it.
alt
The new research is important for understanding the growth and evolution of massive black holes and their host galaxies.
