New simulations led by Northwestern University suggest that supermassive black holes devour their surrounding gas much faster than previously thought. The study challenges the conventional theory that black holes eat slowly and proposes that they consume food in a cycle of tearing and refilling subdisks, which takes only a few months. This finding could help explain the behavior of quasars, which experience sudden brightening and dimming.from Science News - Times of India https://ift.tt/e9586vo
