Manifestation of BZ power From their simulations, the team found that depending on the black hole's spin, between 10% and 70% of the energy extracted through the BZ process was channeled into jets ...

"I think that the simplest explanation of the rotating universe is the universe was born in a rotating black hole." Without a doubt, since its launch, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST ...

There’s a pretty hot party raging in the black hole at the center of our galaxy. Using new observations from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), a team of astrophysicists found that the ...

Illustration: NASA, ESA, CSA, Ralf Crawford (STScI) The black hole at the center of our galaxy is experiencing a flurry of flares, ranging from flickers to brilliant eruptions, according to a team ...

And in a recent experiment, scientists decided to look deep into a black hole that's way closer to home — where they were met with an explosive light show. In the most detailed look at that ...

Digital impression of white hole (Philip Drury, University of Sheffield) In the study, scientists used a simplified theoretical model of a black hole called a planar black hole model, which ...

It is a terrifying scenario straight out of science fiction. So, what would happen if you were struck by a primordial black hole? We already know that coming into contact with a stellar-mass ...

For example, any primordial black hole smaller than 10 12 kg would have already evaporated thanks to Hawking radiation. Anything larger than 10 20 kg would gravitationally lens stars in the Milky Way.

When these disks are strongly magnetized, they can act like galactic power plants, extracting energy from the black hole’s spin in a process known as the Blandford-Znajek (BZ) effect.
