An old and “almost naked” hole. Astronomers believed in the first part of the second after the big explosion was discovered by the James Web telescope for space.
If the so -called primitive black hole is confirmed, then the theoretical group is one of the creatures that Stephen Hawking predicted but unprecedented, the discovery will increase the theories of the universe.
Until now, the prevailing view was that the stars and galaxies appeared first and that the black holes were created only when the first stars of fuel were exhausted and collapsed under their own attractiveness.
But the latest notes made by the space telescope, which reveals a little black hole with only a scattered aura of the surrounding materials dating back to the dawn of the universe, seems incompatible with the sequence of events.
“This black hole is almost naked,” said Professor Roberto Mayolano, cosmologist at Cambridge University, one of the teams behind the notes. “This is very difficult for theories. It seems that this black hole may form without a galaxy around it.”
Primitive black holes are assumed that they were formed in the first part of the second after the large explosion by the thick and hotter areas of themselves. In this scenario, black holes of different sizes were placed in the fabric of the universe from almost the beginning and were behaved as pockets of gravity in which the dust and gas began that formed the first galaxies in the assembly. Hawking was a pioneer in the theory in the 1970s, but with no evidence of contracting in contracts since they became seen as speculative or “strange”.
The latest notes focus on a “small red point” known as QSO1, which dates back more than 13 billion years when the universe was only 700 meters. It is one of the scattering of such points found by JWST, which is very red, very compressed and bright that astronomers have concluded that they should be ancient black holes.
Given that black holes are usually supposed to start small and snowball over time by sticking to the stars, scientists were confused how these black holes increased very early in the history of the universe.
Despite the extreme distance of QSO1, astronomers managed to track the tropical speed of the gas and dust aura. This measurement gave the central black hole mass as 50 meters solar blocks, with the total mass of the surrounding material less than half of this value, according to the results published on Preprint Arxiv.
“This is in a blatant contradiction with what we notice in our local world, where black holes are in the midst of galaxies [like the Milky Way] “About a thousand times less huge than its galaxy host,” said Molino.
in Separate analysisThe incandescent material around the black hole was found to be a chemical “primitive”, which includes almost exclusively from hydrogen And the helium, the two elements left after the big explosion. The absence of heavier elements, forged in the stars, adds to evidence that there is no great composition of the stars in the vicinity of the black hole.
“These results are a change in the model,” said Maiolino. “Here we are witnessing a huge black hole that is formed without a lot of galaxy, as much as we can say from the data.”
Another way this can happen through a vast cloud of gas and dust in the early universe that collapses directly to a black hole instead of fragmenting and forming the stars. But it is expected that “direct collapse” will require very specific environmental conditions that are not clear in notes, causing scientists to a simple preference for primitive black hole scenario.
Professor Andrew Pontzen, a cosmologist at Durham University, said: “The urban origin of black holes will have profound effects on the basic laws of physics,” said Professor Andrew Pontzen, a cosmologist at Durham University who did not participate in the research.
“The researchers behind this study uses new notes in JWST to enhance the state of primitive assets, but it is an indirect argument and will take time until the discussion is settled. A contract from now will now take the next generation of gravitational wave detection devices, which is ideal for inhaling black holes across the entire universe.”
