  2. Quasi-star - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasi-star

    A quasi-star (also called black hole star) is a hypothetical type of extremely large and luminous star that may have existed early in the history of the Universe. They are thought to have existed for around 7–10 million years due to their immense mass .

  3. Black hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole

    A black hole with the mass of a car would have a diameter of about 10 −24 m and take a nanosecond to evaporate, during which time it would briefly have a luminosity of more than 200 times that of the Sun. Lower-mass black holes are expected to evaporate even faster; for example, a black hole of mass 1 TeV/c 2 would take less than 10 −88 ...

  4. Accretion disk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accretion_disk

    The hot accretion disc of a black hole, showing the relativistic effects imposed on light when it is emitted in regions subject to extreme gravitation.This image is the result of NASA simulations and shows a view from outside the horizon of a Schwarzschild black hole.

    Scientists have got a peek at what is happening inside of black holes. A new model – built on gravitational waves that were first detected almost 10 years ago – indicates what is going inside ...

  7. Black hole cosmology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_cosmology

    Or, the Big Bang was a supermassive white hole that was the result of a supermassive black hole at the heart of a galaxy in our parent universe. Shockwave cosmology , proposed by Joel Smoller and Blake Temple in 2003, [ 7 ] has the “big bang” as an explosion inside a black hole, producing the expanding volume of space and matter that ...

  8. Computational astrophysics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_astrophysics

    A computer simulation of a star falling into a black hole in the process of forming an accretion disk. Computational astrophysics refers to the methods and computing tools developed and used in astrophysics research.
