Could the gas escaping the gravitational grip of the supermassive black holes form “tsunamis” in space?
Gas escaping the gravity of supermassive black holes could form a "tsunami" in the universe.
For the first time, a team of international scientists has shown how complex the clouds are within these massive objects in the universe.
Here on Earth, earthquakes and underwater volcanic eruptions may displace enough ocean water to create a tsunami, a drumbeat of waves reaching huge heights as they approach land.
Could gas escaping the gravitational grasp of supermassive black holes be forming "tsunamis" in space?
Gas escaping from the gravitational attraction of a supermassive black hole can cause tsunami-like patterns in the depths of space.
These waves can steepen into spiraling vortex structures that can reach a height of 10 light-years above the disk.
Tsunami-like structures can be produced in the depths of space , from gas escaping from the gravitational pull of a supermassive black hole.
Astrophysicists have used computer simulations to show that in deep in space, tsunami-like structures may form on much bigger scales, from gas escaping the gravitational pull of a supermassive black hole.
