小黑洞迅速发展成为早期宇宙的超大黑洞,挑战了先前的理论。 Small black holes grew rapidly into supermassive ones in early universe, challenging prior theories.

梅努特大学的研究人员发现,小黑洞最初仅是太阳质量的10至几百倍,在混乱、气体丰富的条件下,在早期宇宙迅速发展成超大黑洞。 Researchers at Maynooth University have found that small black holes, initially only 10 to a few hundred times the sun’s mass, could rapidly grow into supermassive black holes in the early universe under chaotic, gas-rich conditions. 他们的模拟显示这些"轻种子"黑洞经历了短暂的超级埃丁顿积聚期, 尽管辐射应该会阻止它们的生长, Their simulations show these "light seed" black holes experienced brief periods of super Eddington accretion—consuming matter at extreme rates despite radiation that should have halted growth—challenging earlier beliefs that only massive "heavy seed" black holes could evolve into the giants seen by the James Webb Space Telescope. 调查结果为早期超大型黑洞的起源提供了新的解释,并可能有助于即将到来的LISA飞行任务探测其合并产生的引力波。 The findings offer a new explanation for the origins of early supermassive black holes and may help the upcoming LISA mission detect gravitational waves from their mergers.
