Stars as meals for black holes
The article embodies scientific research on supermassive black holes and their impact on the universe. Scientists have reached an understanding of the mechanism behind jet ejections following the destruction of stars by these black holes. The study explains that black holes emit jets during two phases of their feeding cycle: the first occurs at high accretion rates, and the second happens after hundreds to thousands of days when the accretion rate drops to about 2% of its maximum. This discovery allows for accurate predictions of jet launch timing, thereby enhancing scientists' understanding of the behavior of these celestial bodies and enabling them to assess the strength of the jets and the properties of the black holes.
