Monash University researchers have found in their initial information that it is not easy for a giant black hole to swallow a star. Things also get messy when it does so.
Space.com spoke with Daniel Price, who led the team of researchers. talk According to the report, it is very difficult for a black hole to consume large objects with a mass equal to that of a star. Researchers found that if a star is thrown at a black hole, some part of the star does not go into the black hole. It comes back in the form of a violent outflow. Then the emission from it can show its effect over a very long distance.
Researchers found that throwing such a large amount of matter on a black hole also exerts pressure on it. Although scientists already knew this fact, Daniel and his team have demonstrated it through experiments.
Researchers say that such events happen once in every 100,000 years and a star collides with another star and gets trapped in the black hole at the centre of the galaxy and falls towards it.
The researchers have their Study Since the study was done on a computer, it was not possible to understand all aspects of TDEs with accuracy. He believes that this study can provide new information on stars that are around a giant black hole and are about to collide with it.
