  2. Direct collapse black hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_collapse_black_hole

    A primordial black hole is the result of the direct collapse of energy, ionized matter, or both, during the inflationary or radiation-dominated eras, while a direct collapse black hole is the result of the collapse of unusually dense and large regions of gas. [29]

  3. Objective-collapse theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Objective-collapse_theory

    This explanation is wrong; in collapse theories the collapse in position also determines a localization in momentum, driving the wave function to an almost minimum uncertainty state both in position and in momentum, [16] compatibly with Heisenberg's principle. The reason the energy increases is that the collapse noise diffuses the particle ...

  4. Supermassive black hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermassive_black_hole

    However, Richard Feynman noted stars above a certain critical mass are dynamically unstable and would collapse into a black hole, at least if they were non-rotating. [27] Fowler then proposed that these supermassive stars would undergo a series of collapse and explosion oscillations, thereby explaining the energy output pattern.

  5. Primordial black hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primordial_black_hole

    A direct collapse black hole is the result of the collapse of unusually dense and large regions of gas, after the radiation-dominated era, while primordial black holes would have resulted from the direct collapse of energy, ionized matter, or both, during the inflationary or radiation-dominated eras. [64]

  6. Black hole thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_thermodynamics

    In physics, black hole thermodynamics [1] is the area of study that seeks to reconcile the laws of thermodynamics with the existence of black hole event horizons.As the study of the statistical mechanics of black-body radiation led to the development of the theory of quantum mechanics, the effort to understand the statistical mechanics of black holes has had a deep impact upon the ...

  7. Gamma-ray burst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma-ray_burst

    During this collapse, energy may be released as a momentary burst of gamma-rays aligned to the axis of rotation. In gamma-ray astronomy, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are immensely energetic events occurring in distant galaxies which represent the brightest and "most powerful class of explosion in the universe."

    The Office of Naval Research defines DEWs as “electromagnetic systems capable of converting chemical or electrical energy to radiated energy and focusing it on a target, resulting in physical ...

  9. Kugelblitz (astrophysics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kugelblitz_(astrophysics)

    A study published in Physical Review Letters in 2024 argues that the formation of a kugelblitz is impossible due to dissipative quantum effects like vacuum polarization, which prevent sufficient energy buildup to create an event horizon. [3] The study concludes that such a phenomenon cannot occur in any realistic scenario within our universe.
