The research was conducted by astronomers from Kyoto University, published in the journal Nature and presented to rally the American Astronomical Society in Florida. In June 2015, the black hole awoke after 26 years of sleep, emitting light during the explosion of energy. Typically, astronomers observed this type of event in other wavelengths.
Observation ordinary telescope
On this occasion, the astronomers found that the telescope registered the visible flashes of light coming from the black hole, which remained active for two weeks. Amazingly telescopes that were used in the study were small lens. The average person can easily get such a tool.
– We know that we can observe by means of visible light, without highly specialized telescopes, X-ray – explains the study’s lead author Mariko Kimura, Master of Kyoto University.
Of course it should be noted that the light does not come from the center of the black hole, where gravity is so strong that nothing escapes to the outside. The light comes from the heated disk of material swirling around a black hole. X-ray radiation from the accretion disk heats the deepest area, which emits visible light.
International cooperation
– The sky is best to watch after dark, and he limited hours. But by observations from different locations around the world, we are able to collect more detailed data – said study co-author Daisaku Nogami. – We are pleased that our international network of observation was able together to document this phenomenon – he added.
Odkurzmy their telescopes may be able to see the black hole in the depths of the universe.
The previous hypothesis about black holes are simple and uncomplicated – is an object irretrievably astringent and absorbing everything, even light. However, this theory is incomplete, and the black hole is surrounded by a gravity waves, and carried out observations with calculations may undermine stereotypes.
