In the spring of 2014 numerous astronomers detected the largest X-ray burst discovered from the super massive black hole with in the center of the Milky Way galaxy.
The occurrence was discovered by NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory.
In which brought forth questions about the activities of this enormous black hole and its adjacent environment.
The super massive black hole, called Sagittarius A*, or Sgr A*,was projected to encompass about 4.5 million times the mass of our sun.
On Sept. 14, 2013, Haggard and her team detected an X-ray flare from Sgr A* 400 times brighter than its usual, quiet state. This “megaflare” was nearly three times brighter than the previous brightest X-ray flare from Sgr A* in early 2012. After Sgr A* settled down, Chandra observed another enormous X-ray flare 200 times livelier than usual on October. 20, 2014.
Their evaluation that G2 was contiguous to the black hole in the spring of 2014, Fifteen billion miles away.
The Chandra burst which was detected in Sept.2013, was approximately a hundred times closer to the black hole.
This made the occurrence improbably related to G2.
The astronomers have two core theories that triggered Sgr A* to explode in this electrifying way.
The first is an asteroid derived head-to-head to the supermassive black hole.
None the less, it was torn apart by gravity.
Where the debris commencing such a tidal disruption turn out to be very hot and created X-rays before vanishing indefinitely across the black hole, or event horizon.
A second theory is the magnetic field positions in the interior OF the gas flowing in the direction of Sgr A* may perhaps be tightly overflowing and become intertwined.
These field lines might infrequently reconfigure and produce a lively eruption of X-rays.
These kinds of magnetic bursts remain seen on the sun, and the Sgr A* flares have parallel forms of strength.
The co author Gabriele Ponti of the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics in Garching, Germany said “The bottom line is the jury is still out on what’s causing these giant flares from Sgr A*.”
Also, “Such rare and extreme events give us a unique chance to use a mere trickle of in falling matter to understand the physics of one of the most bizarre objects in our galaxy.”
With all the latest considerations going on about Super massive Black holes in our galaxy, and what they mean to our existence.
The second-largest black hole in our galaxy may have been detected near the center of the Milky Way, according to astronomers with the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan.
Resently a second-largest black hole in our galaxy may have been detected near the center of the Milky Way,
From my research, this is according to astronomers with the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan.
