  2. Carter constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carter_constant

    The Carter constant is a conserved quantity for motion around black holes in the general relativistic formulation of gravity. Its SI base units are kg 2 ⋅m 4 ⋅s −2.Carter's constant was derived for a spinning, charged black hole by Australian theoretical physicist Brandon Carter in 1968.

  3. Black hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole

    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 ...

  4. Gravitational time dilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_time_dilation

    Gravitational time dilation is a form of time dilation, an actual difference of elapsed time between two events, as measured by observers situated at varying distances from a gravitating mass. The lower the gravitational potential (the closer the clock is to the source of gravitation), the slower time passes, speeding up as the gravitational ...

    The first [1] is given by = where M BH is the mass of the black hole, σ is the stellar velocity dispersion of the host bulge, and G is the gravitational constant. The second definition [ 2 ] is the radius at which the enclosed mass in stars equals twice M BH , i.e. M ⋆ ( r < r h ) = 2 M BH . {\displaystyle M_{\star }(r<r_{h})=2M_{\text{BH}}.}

  6. Schwarzschild radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild_radius

    (Supermassive black holes up to 21 billion (2.1 × 10 10) M ☉ have been detected, such as NGC 4889.) [17] Unlike stellar mass black holes, supermassive black holes have comparatively low average densities. (Note that a (non-rotating) black hole is a spherical region in space that surrounds the singularity at its center; it is not the ...

  7. Mass in general relativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_in_general_relativity

    The Bondi mass was introduced (Bondi, 1962) in a paper that studied the loss of mass of physical systems via gravitational radiation. The Bondi mass is also associated with a group of asymptotic symmetries, the BMS group at null infinity. Like the SPI group at spatial infinity, the BMS group at null infinity is infinite-dimensional, and it also ...

    Scientists made that point anew on Monday in a study that used observations of a ferocious class of black holes called quasars to demonstrate "time dilation" in the early universe, showing how ...
