Magnetic field lines emanate from a pair of supermassive black holes nearing merger within a large gas disk in a simulation by RIT scientists. Periodic light signals in the gas disk could someday help scientists locate supermassive binary black holes. Credit: RIT Center for Computational Relativity and Gravitation
Multimessenger astrophysics. A new simulation of supermassive black holes – the behemoths at the centers of galaxies – uses a realistic scenario to predict the light signals emitted in the surrounding gas before the masses collide, said Rochester Institute of Technology researchers...
