A supermassive black hole with 'double burps' excites scientists

New Delhi : So far it has been known that a Black hole eats up almost everything, but the scientists have now learned that it burps too. The incident has not been seen just once, but there are two evidences to prove it.

The scientists have found a supermassive black hole that eats up massive violent stars and the hot cosmic gas then releases burps in the form of highly charged particles having energy in huge amount. Scientists noticed that burping out charged particle did not happen just once but it was reported twice.

Dr. Julie Comerford from the University of Colorado at Boulder and colleagues used observations from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, as well as the W.M. Keck Observatory in Mauna Kea, Hawaii, and the Apache Point Observatory near Sunspot, New Mexico.

Chandra detected a bright, point-like source of X-ray emission from J1354, a tell-tale sign of the presence of an extremely massive black hole.
