Astrophysicists Discuss the Latest in Black Hole Physics

What do you think is the most significant unanswered question about black holes and their impact on our understanding of the universe?

[@MrBoomer-k6v]

Will black holes be the last thing to die out in the universe

Love the content. One likely possibility is that the other mics needed to be dipped down when one person is speaking. Seems like your post team did some of that but not all the time. There are also methods for aligning the audio waveforms if you’re able to move audio subframes or samples in the timeline.

I’m old enough to remember learning about black holes in school as an unlikely phenomenon that was purely theoretical. There have been so many exiting discoveries in my lifetime, and I hope to see many more before I go.

[@leonardobaeza8159]

It blows my mind how much of astrophysics is being discovered. It has its pros and cons (con being those who don’t believe in space)

[@johnh8013]

Hello, old guy here who barely graduated high school. I love the fact that Neil's show brings together people (scientists) who, each in their own field, are trying to find answers that make up a piece of a puzzle that, while we may have a small idea of the basic premise of, no one is quite sure what the end result of the puzzle will look like. In the words of one of my favorite sci-fi characters..."Fascinating!"

[@mattorr2256]

We have discovered a lot (or better yet, scientists have discovered a lot) about how the universe works. However there seems to me that there will always be an endless amount of discoveries basically forever. I cannot see us knowing everything about everything and also travel to all parts of the universe at will if we want to. I hope we do discover everything I just cannot fathom that ever coming to fruition. So I think we have to come to peace with the fact that while we have begun to understand a lot about how the world and universe around us works, there is just simply an endless amount of things we don’t know or understand. It’s just reality and there’s nothing we can do about it right now besides just be at peace with it. It is what it is, in other words.

[@mattorr2256]

I and amongst many others I’ve spoken to about this topic is that it gives me a certain amount of acceptance and comfort in knowing that there is so much that has yet to be discovered. I don’t know why, it just does.

It was only possible if the black hole was spinning near light speed. So technically possible, not practically. So deep in the gravity well, everything would have already been a quark-gluon soup in the accretion disc.

True. I actually watched a presentation from Kip Throne earlier this year and he said exactly this. He proposed a "correct" scenario, but it was not up to Hollywood emotion levels, so he "allowed" the production team to go crazy with it.

[@isatousarr7044]

The latest advancements in black hole physics are truly fascinating, particularly the growing understanding of how black holes interact with their surroundings. Recent studies on black hole mergers, quantum information paradoxes, and event horizon imaging have deepened our insights into these enigmatic objects. These findings are pushing the boundaries of our knowledge in astrophysics, challenging existing theories and opening up new possibilities for understanding the fundamental nature of the universe. With the recent breakthroughs in black hole imaging and quantum information theory, how do you think these discoveries will influence our understanding of spacetime and the fabric of the universe? Are we on the brink of a new paradigm in astrophysics that could potentially reconcile general relativity with quantum mechanics?

[@JS55505]

Am I crazy or is this comment doped with an injection of chat gpt

[@mattorr2256]

Astrophysicists, Cosmologists and Astronomers are working on this and have been for a while now. They are working on connecting the world of the macro (general relativity) and the world of the micro (quantum mechanics) into one theory of everything.

Connecting these two must be the most difficult and time consuming task I can imagine. They just don’t want to fit together. So are they close? How could we know? I believe we are quite far from a theory of everything by combining general relativity and quantum mechanics.

[@stoneysdead689]

Idk but that's a really good idea man- good thinking. I had never considered that. The only thing that makes me sort of doubt it is because he said gravity times orbit and called it a "new term"- which makes me think he's talking about a whole new phenomenon that only happens next to a black hole. Relativistic mass gain happens anywhere, anytime, all you need is an object with mass that's moving.

[@DrDeuteron]

Relativistic mass is passé

[@zdlax]

I imagine the biggest difference between Newtonian gravity and GR is that in GR the stress of warped spacetime embodies a tremendous amount of energy which further warps spacetime, creating a positive feedback loop that doesn't exist in Newton's model.

[@johndoyle2347]

From the polar equations of the trisectrices as applied with the exponential part of Doyle's constant to give an "invisible touch", just a slight bump in order to view hyperbolic math from the lens of elliptical math. The conchoid of Nicomedes: gravitational fields affect the corner/cusp singularities, the cosine of theta represents how this laterally drives the central bulge to form a tornado of fluidic motion that occasionally forms gaps and can spin off budded primordial black holes. The Maclaurin trisectrix: the sine of 3 times theta represents the effects of the paired corner/cusp singularities forcing a rotation in the central bulge. The doubling signifies the top and bottom halves of the bulge. The Tschirnhausen cubic: the ripples of energy from the paired corner/cusp singularities combine at the inflected areas to fatten the particle. The trisectrix limaçon: the cosine of theta represents the line between the leading and trailing points of the rotating ring/cylinder/horn singularity being united with the rest of the body, such as a photon or electron, and the 1 squared divisor represents how gravity elongates the singularity, through the "magic" of split-complex numbers and how the leading and trailing rotating points maintain an elliptical orbit around each other. The equilateral trefoil: a supernova event. A high metallicity collapsing star briefly forms dark matter. The dark matter drives the explosion and gets quickly broken up. The cosine of 3 times theta represents how the dark matter breaks up at the inflected areas. The regular trifolium: the cosine of 3 times theta represents how a feeding or forming black hole singularity wobbles. The Ceva trisectrix: the 1 + 2 times the cosine of 2 times theta represents the top and bottom halves of the budding bulge of Big Bang era dark matter. The sine of 3 times theta over the sine of theta represents how ripples of energy from alternating corner/cusp singularities unite at the inflected areas to form a bulged disk shape from the inflection points onward toward the center. The Delanges trisectrix: the cosine of theta halved. Reminiscent of the natural logarithm of the imaginary number, forces are being released perpendicularly, but causing rotation instead of hindering it. The Dürer folium: whether in a proton or neutron, the two ring/cylinder/horn elliptical singularities cannot stably form obtuse associations. The hyperbola of eccentricity 2: gravity is produced, creating an accretion disk and causing impacts and a consumption of the less massive particle or body.

It is my surprise that you have Newton's mechanics when it is by convention that inside the space alone or no space quantum is the way as it is established by decades. I am also involved in understanding physics in my TOE approach, since long as SURT recently me too with very classical derivations ( not GR) I could established what is the reason behind the stability inside a blackhole and what is so special in event horizon. But also with very simple equation, my standard unit techniques I could established the unit black hole mass for my system. Value is exact by experimental observation. All old and new data of stellar observations. New physics fact that I could derived that deep inside the black hole ( as a inverse square root of radius of event horizon scale, at half way from point mass two opposite pole due to moment of inertia of inside disc rotation around the axis could act as two opposite mass ejection spot depending on a nice equilibrium due to falling mass and unit horizon and unit mass relation inside BH. It is in progress that a new time is emergent showings the sign of three generation. For very small atomic scale, yet to explore and details. But I am now more on geometry and gravity. With a great hope that you will reach the truth very soon. As you have discussed the temperature, I have found a 4D kelvin scale from 4D volume. I will get there on due course.

[@johndoyle2347]

Willans' Formula for primes: 2 to the n part = vertical asymptote and p-adic numbers. 1/n part = vertical tangent. Factorial part = vertical line. These tensors from differential calculus determine singularities in stable matter as represented as primes. Willan's Formula can be looked for budding primordial black holes and for black holes forming from low metallicity collapsing stars. Willan's Formula also applies to dark matter unflaking during a Big Bang event and to dark matter being broken up into galaxies or solar systems. The floor function part corresponds to the Delanges sectrix and trisectrix. Sectrix for the unflaking and trisectrix for when the dark matter is broken up by a supernova.

So what’s the possibility that Super Massive Black Holes (SMBH) are like seeds for new Universes? Assume that a SMBH consumes a complete Galaxy that has formed around it condenses the materials that were sucked into it and when it can’t hold anymore pops like a balloon which is a Big Bang? If our own Universe was created in such a way? It seems like an answer that can’t ever be confirmed and will forever remain unknown

Roger Penrose is working on a version of this. Black holes emit their contents gradually as Hawking radiation until they evaporate. Eventually all the matter in the universe will be in black holes, and then it will be Hawking radiation. At that point, time and distance stop making sense because photons don't experience time and space like we do. From there, another big bang could occur.

[@Llyd_ApDicta]

"and when it can’t hold anymore pops like a balloon" - I think there is some confusion here. The more the BH "sucks" in the easier it can "hold stuff in" since the gravitational force get stronger.

[@Llyd_ApDicta]

@@fang_xianfu The time frames you are considering here are so extreme, that the proposed half life of protons would play a role as well as the universal exapnsion of the Univsere to a point where the distance between atomic building blocks, i.e. Quarks, would get so far that the particle istself would get ripped apart.

[@Familylawgroup]

i remain very confused by the physical shapes of black holes, whether they also have a traveling orbit or if they anchor themselves. if they anchor themselves, to what do they anchor themselves? If accretion discs are magnetic, why are the accretion disks always portrayed as a horizontal bond, only in the center? Why aren’t there also accretion discs on North/South poles, or even as a type of light spherical shell showing the direction of light, from a spherical point of origin, towards the center of graviy? There is a Relativity Answer Book is out there, for the layman. I am curious about IF there is a back side to a back hole, assuming anything could survive observance? if it has a shape, let alone an orbit, like a spherical planet, then it make sense that there should be a geometrical shape around one whom can orbit. Would you agree? Also, once a black hole’s gravity hits maximal effect, wouldn’t the mass be crush to the smallest possible size? if so, wouldn’t the accretion disk be the only thing we could see, like a white bulb against black “Lite brite” paper? (See reference to 1970s lite brite paper creations). Finally, regarding orbits and rotation, do the black holes (Or even planets) ever rotate around a North South axis, or deviations from that 3 dimensional impact? i am always struggling to imagine the “flipped papers” of every drawing about orbits. I try to imagine the view of the observer, coming from opposite direction from Earth. I try to do the same on planet orbits…if you take the front view of drawn orbits but drew each orbit as separate rubber band rings. I imagine the orbiter going towards the center star while rotating close to the North/South pole. More collisions might be avoided if the planet could orbit 360 degrees. i have the same confusion about black holes…

Andy Mummery thank you answers

So much intelligence in that room. So little ego. I love it!!

[@Idellphany]

Thank you!

[@MikeJamesMedia]

Amazing work...

[@GAK1atatt]

I want to see you and Dr. Becky in an episode as long as you’re in England and talking black holes.

[@DanH-u3f]

So any object that falls below a 3 to 1 orbit will plunge into the black hole without any chance of escape? Amazing.

I wanted to know what the actual time difference would be if they were as close as possible. To see if the movie could have been more accurate but maybe much less dramatic.

@39:50 Neil, it's stated, in the conversation, that Gamma Radiation is emitted at very high temperatures. But, doesn't Uranium emit gamma rays at room temperature? Can you help us understand this?

It’s crazy how the movie interstellar came out in 2014 yet every single year since it came out everyone makes a reference to this movie

[@vikasshelke5544]

It was closest to reality as possible.

He calculated for a non rotational black hole We learnt later that Kip calculated for a rotating black hole So the calculation from both works They just started at different assumptions

Thank you

I don't know if Neal deGrasse Tyson has spoken on this matter. If he has, I have yet to find the video. However, recently I have come a crossed the black hole Firewall theory. If I understand it correctly (Which I'm sure I don't Lol 😅), it would be a barrier of particles that prevent anything from ever crossing the event horizon because anything that passes through is basically disintegrated. I've heard that it explains how Quantum Entangled Particles that pass through the event horizon could be separated and re-tangled with other particles as they escape through Hawking Radiation and it would inevitably prevent anything from ever truly crossing through the event horizon. With that said, keep in mind, I'm a college drop out, got nothing but C's in high school and failed college level algebra twice.... so to quote Smash Mouth, "I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed." Lol 😅I'm just curious as to what Neal deGrasse Tyson thinks about it.
