Astronomers have made a surprising development regarding black holes. Located 2.7 billion light years from Earth Abel 1201 They discovered the existence of one of the largest black holes to date, in a galaxy called According to the studies and measurements, the mass of this black hole is 32.7 billion times the mass of the sun. James Nightingale of Durham University in England stated that this black hole is at the upper limit in size.

James Nightingale and his team to detect the massive black hole gravity lenses took advantage of the phenomenon. According to this phenomenon, rays that should have traveled in a straight line became curved due to gravitational lensing. Experts, who first suspected Abell 1201 in 2003, became suspicious due to their research. they are right they came to their conclusion. In the process, using supercomputers and running tests, the team discovered one of the largest known black holes.

Here’s the image of that black hole

image above in 2017 withdrew. Experts say that this image means that there is a black hole in the center of Abell 1201. However, in the studies conducted at the time, it could not be understood whether the black hole was a black hole, and mass measurement could not. James Nightingale and his team have put an end to years of debate about the method they use.

The work of James Nightingale and his team is significant. Because black holes can be easily seen billions of light years away. cannot be detected. The British team’s research taught other astronomers what to do. Nightingale”The approach we use is far beyond our universe. more It could allow us to detect the black hole and reveal how these exotic objects evolved over cosmic time.‘ he said.
