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 ...
This is a list of known black holes that are close to the Solar System. It is thought that most black holes are solitary, but black holes in binary or larger systems are much easier to detect. [1] Solitary black holes can generally only be detected by measuring their gravitational distortion of the light from more
OJ 287 core black holes — a BL Lac object with a candidate binary supermassive black hole core system [23] PG 1302-102 – the first binary-cored quasar — a pair of supermassive black holes at the core of this quasar [24] [25] SDSS J120136.02+300305.5 core black holes — a pair of supermassive black holes at the centre of this galaxy [26]
The black hole, which is at a distance of about 18,000 light-years, appears to be stuck in an intermediate stage of evolution, and is considerably less massive than typical black holes in the ...
MS 0735.6+7421 is a galaxy cluster located in the constellation Camelopardalis, approximately 2.6 billion light-years away.It is notable as the location of one of the largest central galactic black holes in the known universe, which has also apparently produced one of the most powerful active galactic nucleus eruptions discovered.
Astronomers have found the most massive stellar black hole known in our own galaxy. The object is relatively close by, at least in black hole terms, sitting just 2,000 light years away.
The star and black hole orbit each other with a period of 185.59 days and an eccentricity of 0.45. The star is similar to the Sun , with about 0.93 M ☉ and 0.99 R ☉ , and a temperature of about 5,850 K (5,580 °C ; 10,070 °F ), while the black hole has a mass of about 9.62 M ☉ . [ 3 ]
Sagittarius A*, abbreviated as Sgr A* (/ ˈ s æ dʒ ˈ eɪ s t ɑːr / SADGE-AY-star [3]), is the supermassive black hole [4] [5] [6] at the Galactic Center of the Milky Way.Viewed from Earth, it is located near the border of the constellations Sagittarius and Scorpius, about 5.6° south of the ecliptic, [7] visually close to the Butterfly Cluster (M6) and Lambda Scorpii.
