Size comparison of the event horizons of the black holes of TON 618 and Phoenix A. The orbit of Neptune (white oval) is included for comparison. As a quasar, TON 618 is believed to be the active galactic nucleus at the center of a galaxy, the engine of which is a supermassive black hole feeding on intensely hot gas and matter in an accretion ...
The science and philosophy channel Kurzgesagt has come out with a mind-blowing size comparison of the universe's black holes. The post Black Hole Size Comparison Chart Gives New View of Universe ...
This makes it one of the most massive black holes discovered so early in the universe, although it is only less than one fifth as massive as Ton 618, the most massive black hole known. The diameter of this black hole is about 70.9 billion kilometres, seven times the diameter of Pluto's orbit.
Size comparison of the event horizons of the black holes of TON 618 and Phoenix A. The orbit of Neptune (white oval) is included for comparison. The central black hole of the Phoenix Cluster is the engine that drives both the Seyfert nucleus of Phoenix A, as well as the relativistic jets that produce the inner cavities in the cluster center. M.
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.
1ES 2344+514; Ton 618 (this quasar has possibly the biggest black hole ever found, estimated at 66 billion solar masses) [1]; 3C 371; 4C +37.11 (this radio galaxy is believed to have binary supermassive black holes) [2]
Ton 618 is a hyperluminous quasar and blazar in this constellation, near its border with the neighboring Coma Berenices. It possesses a black hole with a mass 66 billion times that of the Sun, making it one of the most massive black holes ever measured. [28] There is also a Lyman-alpha blob. [29]
Its supermassive black hole is being ejected and will one day become a displaced quasar. TON 618: TON 618 is a very distant and extremely luminous quasar—technically, a hyperluminous, broad-absorption line, radio-loud quasar—located near the North Galactic Pole in the constellation Canes Venatici.
