NSF NOIRLab Astronomers Discover the Fastest-Feeding Black Hole in the Early Universe - Observations from JWST and Chandra reveal a low-mass supermassive black hole that appears to be consuming matter at over 40 times the theoretical limit

Summary

Nutrition label

92% Informative

Observations from JWST and Chandra reveal a low-mass supermassive black hole that appears to be consuming matter at over 40 times the theoretical limit.

Supermassive black holes exist at the center of most galaxies, and modern telescopes continue to observe them at surprisingly early times in the Universe ’s evolution.

The discovery of LID-568 also shows that it’s possible for a black hole to exceed its Eddington limit.

The powerful outflows may be acting as a release valve for the excess energy generated by the extreme accretion.

To further investigate the mechanisms at play, the team is planning follow-up observations with JWST .
