SMSS J215728.21-360215.1, commonly known as J2157-3602, is one of the fastest growing black holes and one of the most powerful quasars known to exist as of 2021.The quasar is located at redshift 4.75, [1] corresponding to a comoving distance of 2.5 × 10 10 ly from Earth and to a light-travel distance of 1.25 × 10 10 ly.
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.
The redshift of J0529-4351 is 3.962. The object itself is classified as a radio-quiet quasar.Fitting accretion models to the spectra yields an accretion rate of matter onto the black hole of 280 to 490 solar masses per year for an accretion disk around the black hole observed at an angle of zero to 60 degrees, with accretion occurring near the Eddington limit.
The James Webb Space Telescope has delivered yet another astounding discovery, spying an active supermassive black hole deeper into the universe than has ever been recorded.
OJ 287 core black holes — a BL Lac object with a candidate binary supermassive black hole core system [23] PG 1302-102 – the first binary-cored quasar — a pair of supermassive black holes at the core of this quasar [24] [25] SDSS J120136.02+300305.5 core black holes — a pair of supermassive black holes at the centre of this galaxy [26]
From this, the mass of the central black hole of TON 618 has been estimated to be at 66 billion M ☉. [9] This is considered one of the highest masses ever recorded for such an object; higher than the mass of all the stars in the Milky Way galaxy combined, which is 64 billion M ☉ , [ 10 ] and 15,300 times more massive than Sagittarius A* ...
