    QSO J0529−4351 (SMSS J052915.80–435152.0) is a quasar, 12 billion light-years away in the Pictor constellation, notable for being the most luminous object ever observed at roughly 500 trillion times the luminosity of the Sun. The black hole at its centre has a mass of approximately 17 billion solar masses, and accretes around one solar mass ...

    The double-burst variability is thought to result from the smaller black hole punching through the accretion disc of the larger black hole twice in every 12 years. [5] A secondary black hole orbits the larger one with an observed orbital period of approximately 12 years and a calculated eccentricity of approximately 0.65. [4]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermassive_black_hole

    A supermassive black hole (SMBH or sometimes SBH) [a] is the largest type of black hole, with its mass being on the order of hundreds of thousands, or millions to billions, of times the mass of the Sun (M ☉). Black holes are a class of astronomical objects that have undergone gravitational collapse, leaving behind spheroidal regions of space ...
