Depending on the model, primordial black holes could have initial masses ranging from 10 −8 kg [17] (the so-called Planck relics) to more than thousands of solar masses. . However, primordial black holes originally having masses lower than 10 11 kg would not have survived to the present due to Hawking radiation, which causes complete evaporation in a time much shorter than the age of the ...
A black hole with the mass of a car would have a diameter of about 10 −24 m and take a nanosecond to evaporate, during which time it would briefly have a luminosity of more than 200 times that of the Sun. Lower-mass black holes are expected to evaporate even faster; for example, a black hole of mass 1 TeV/c 2 would take less than 10 −88 ...
A simulated particle collision in the LHC. The safety of high energy particle collisions was a topic of widespread discussion and topical interest during the time when the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) and later the Large Hadron Collider (LHC)—currently the world's largest and most powerful particle accelerator—were being constructed and commissioned.
At this stage, a black hole would have a Hawking temperature of T P / 8π (5.6 × 10 30 K), which means an emitted Hawking particle would have an energy comparable to the mass of the black hole. Thus, a thermodynamic description breaks down. Such a micro black hole would also have an entropy of only 4 π nats, approximately the minimum ...
A rogue black hole is a black hole that is not bound by any object's gravity, allowing them to float freely throughout the universe. Since black holes emit no light, the only ways to detect them are gravitational lensing or x-ray bursts that occur when they destroy an object.
The supermassive black hole at the core of Messier 87, here shown by an image by the Event Horizon Telescope, is among the black holes in this list. This is an ordered list of the most massive black holes so far discovered (and probable candidates), measured in units of solar masses (M ☉), approximately 2 × 10 30 kilograms.
Direct collapse black holes (DCBHs) are massive black hole seeds theorized to have formed in the high-redshift Universe and with typical masses at formation of ~ 10 5 M ☉, but spanning between 10 4 M ☉ and 10 6 M ☉. The environmental physical conditions to form a DCBH (as opposed to a cluster of stars) are the following: [3] [4]
Globular cluster Mayall II (M31 G1) is a possible candidate for hosting an intermediate-mass black hole at its center [1]. An intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) is a class of black hole with mass in the range of one hundred to one hundred thousand (10 2 –10 5) solar masses: significantly higher than stellar black holes but lower than the hundred thousand to more than one billion (10 5 –10 ...
