Black holes???

Black holes???

According to the scientists,our Universe is expanding every second .There are number of mysteries present in the universe. 

And one of the most mysterious object is the 

"BLACK HOLES".

According to NASA :

They’re huge concentrations of matter packed into very tiny spaces.A black hole is so dense that gravity just beneath its surface, the event horizon, is strong enough that nothing – not even light – can escape. The event horizon isn’t a surface like Earth’s or even the Sun’s. It’s a boundary that contains all the matter that makes up the black hole.


Formation of black holes??

Now lets talk about how these massive matter of the space actually form!
 Here i want to share a pic that easily manifests the formation of these black holes

So as you see this picture how black holes come in to being.
The two neutron stars also revolve with so much energy and forms a massive black hole.

Parts of black holes:

Acc. to NASA,

Black holes consists of following parts:
  • Accretion disk : 
the extreme gravity of a Black Hole attracts matter around it - gas, interstellar matter, rocks, planets, and sometimes other stars. The matter falling onto the black hole creates an accretion disk, where, heated by friction to the point of shining far brighter than a typical star.

  • Binary system :
 some stars are entrapped in a binary system with a black hole, not another star.

  • Galaxy core :astronomical observations show that nearly every galaxy has a supermassive black hole at its center. Sagittarius A*, a supermassive Black Hole at the center of the Milky Way Galaxy, can be detected with active radio emissions from its accretion disk

  • Jets - massive objects like black holes, neutron stars, and pulsars tend to emit a shot of ionized matter along their axis of rotation, sometimes extending for thousands of light-years in length. Jets are shiny and relatively easy to observe.

Gravitational lensing:

A great phenomenon of showcasing the why light can not pass in to the black holes ?
Answer is the gravitational lensing


Massive objects like black holes can bend and distort light from more distant objects. This effect, called gravitational lensing, can be used to find isolated black holes that are otherwise invisible


The first detected black hole was Cygnus-X1


Types of black holes:

As of February 2019, 10 mergers of binary black holes have been observed. In each case two black holes merged to a larger black hole. In addition, one neutron star merger has been observed (GW170817), forming a black hole. In addition, over 30 alerts have been issued since April 2019, of black hole merger candidates.
