主要观点总结

天文学家宣布了一项突破性发现:人类可能首次观察到了位于星系中心的一个超大质量黑洞的觉醒过程。这个黑洞位于室女座中的一个椭圆星系中心,距离地球约3亿光年。它曾长期保持休眠状态,但在2019年12月意外苏醒。目前科学家们正在寻找解释这一前所未有事件的理论。

关键观点总结

关键观点1: 超大质量黑洞的觉醒

位于椭圆星系中心的超大质量黑洞在沉寂了数十年后意外苏醒,发出不寻常的亮度。

关键观点2: 两种主要理论解释

一种理论认为是潮汐撕裂事件导致一个恒星被黑洞吞噬,另一种理论则认为黑洞从休眠状态苏醒,开始周期性地活跃起来。

关键观点3: 观测意义

此次观测为科学家提供了研究黑洞觉醒过程的独特机会,有助于了解星系中心超大质量黑洞的生长和演化过程。

Astronomers from the European Southern Observatory and the Millennium Institute of Astrophysics in Chile have announced a groundbreaking discovery: humanity may have observed, for the first time, the awakening process of a supermassive black hole at the heart of a galaxy. Texture, pattern, apocalypse, and space stars by BoliviaInteligente. (Photo: Unsplash) Located at the center of an elliptical galaxy in the constellation Virgo, approximately 300 million light-years from Earth, this supermassive black hole boasts a mass equivalent to one million suns. For decades, it remained in a quiescent slumber, undetected by astronomers' vigilant eyes. However, since December 2019, the black hole has unexpectedly sprung to life, a phenomenon documented in the scientific journal "Astronomy & Astrophysics" under the title "Astronomers see a massive black hole awaken in real time." The unusual brightness first caught astronomers' attention in December 2019, emanating from the central region of the ………………………………
