Black Holes Merger

In a rare occurrence, a merger of three supermassive black holes from as many galaxies in our nearby universe was spotted by a team of Indian researchers, said the Ministry of Science and Technology.

Astrophysicists say that the newly observed phenomena will allow them to better understand the formation of binary star systems and how often they merge, something that has never been measured before.

A team of international astronomers believe that they might have detected light from a black hole merger, for the first time ever. This unprecedented event was noted by scientists at Caltech' Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) in California after studying gravitational waves and electromagnetic radiation from the collision of two black holes.

The twin detectors of LIGO - which made the first ever direct detection of gravitational waves - have been restarted and scientists expect to detect more black hole mergers from farther out in the universe.

Researchers announced they had found the waves a second time in December, produced by the collision of two black holes some 1.4 billion years ago.

The machines that gave scientists their first-ever glimpse at gravitational waves are the most advanced detectors ever built for sensing tiny vibrations in the universe.

Scientists announced Thursday that, after decades of effort, they have succeeded in detecting gravitational waves from the violent merging of two black holes in deep space. The detection was hailed as a triumph for a controversial, exquisitely crafted, billion-dollar physics experiment and as confirmation of a key prediction of Albert Einstein's Ge...
