On
Black Hole
What is a Black Hole?

 A black hole is a region of spacetime from which


nothing can escape, even light.
 Region of space with strong gravitational field
 Dungeon or dark cell in a prison
 Project that requires large effort with no return
How big is a black hole?
The solar system has a range of different sized objects.

The sun is just a little too small to form a black hole, but
suppose we squashed it - how big would that black
hole be?
Types of Black Holes
 “Normal Sized” Black Holes
 Microscopic (Primordial) Sized
 Super-Massive Black Holes (On the order of millions
to billions of Solar Masses)
 (Estimated 3 million solar masses for Milky Way Black
Hole)
Interesting facts about black holes

 Miniature black holes may have formed immediately


after the Big Bang. Rapidly expanding space may have
squeezed some regions into tiny, dense black holes less
massive than the sun.
 If a star passes too close to a black hole, it can be torn
apart.
 Astronomers estimate there are anywhere from 10
million to a billion stellar black holes, with masses
roughly three times that of the sun, in the Milky Way.
Black Hole Theory
 Incredibly massive but only cover a small area.
 Extremely strong gravitational force – not even light
can escape
 Holes have 3 “layers”
 Outer event horizon
 Inner event horizon
 Singularity
The layers…
 Event horizon - boundary around
the mouth of the black hole where
light loses its ability to escape
 Once a particle crosses the event
horizon, it cannot leave.
 Singularity
 Single point in space-time where
the mass of the black hole is
concentrated.
Black Hole or Neutron Star?
 If the star the went
supernova was between 1.4
and 3 Msun , then the
remnant will be a Neutron
Star supported by
degenerate neutron
pressure (Pulsar).
 Otherwise,
Mfinal > 3Msun , and the result
is a black hole because the
is no source of outward
pressure strong enough.
Where are black hole
 Black hole are in between of each galaxies, there are
millions to billions black hole in the space.
• Black hole grabs nearby stars. Because of black hole the
galaxies are made.
Black Hole or Neutron Star?
 If the star the went
supernova was between 1.4
and 3 Msun , then the
remnant will be a Neutron
Star supported by
degenerate neutron
pressure (Pulsar).
 Otherwise,
Mfinal > 3Msun , and the result
is a black hole because the
is no source of outward
pressure strong enough.
Conclusion

 Black holes are full of wonder and mystery. They are


also somewhat interesting with their characteristics.
 Still, scientists continuously research these amazing
“space creatures” even though they are invisible.
 Would you consider to be one of these scientists that
research black holes? Or would you consider to go in
space and take a risk to get a closer look at black
holes? There are many conclusions to everything but
there may never be a conclusion to a black hole.
