Astronomers observe a
rare type of X-ray stellar explosion near the center of our Milky Way galaxy,
discovered a previously unknown black hole (BH), the engrossing gas flowing to
it from the nearby sun-like star.
The find was made in
the last month, NASA satellite Swift, who noticed a bright X-ray source is a
few degrees away from the galactic center of the Milky Way.
Astronomers have
characterized the outbreak as a new X-ray, which occur when the flow of gas is
close to a neutron star or a black hole. In contrast to the supernova, the new
star is not completely destroyed.
BH is presumed to be at
a distance of 20,000 to 30,000 light-years away in the inner region of the
galaxy. Astronomers, who identified a new bright X-ray Swift J1745-26 in
accordance with its spatial coordinates, say they have recorded a very rare
event.
Swift telescope team
finds that the black hole is part of the X-ray binary star system light weight,
in which the gas flows from the star to the disk formed around the black hole,
twisting in a spiral and strong heating of the closer to the center of the
black hole.
