Scientists Predict Ultramassive Black Holes Can’t Grow Beyond 100 Billion Suns
Scientists led by Dr Priyamvada Natarajan from Yale University have discovered that ultramassive black holes likely cannot exceed 100 billion solar masses. These giants regulate their own growth by emitting gas jets that heat and expel surrounding material, cutting off their gas supply. Additionally, the team is exploring intermediate-mass black ho...
