The discovery team also found a second system that is a candidate for containing a black hole, which was also reported by another team of astronomers, [3] [6] and was confirmed in 2023 as Gaia BH2. [7] The black hole was also independently detected by a second team, who found slightly different parameters. [8]
The supermassive black hole at the core of Messier 87, here shown by an image by the Event Horizon Telescope, is among the black holes in this list.. This is an ordered list of the most massive black holes so far discovered (and probable candidates), measured in units of solar masses (M ☉), approximately 2 × 10 30 kilograms.
