Black Holes and the Supercomputers That Reveal Their Secrets

In a groundbreaking study using the world’s leading supercomputers, researchers have significantly enhanced our understanding of black hole accretion disks. These disks, essential for observing black holes indirectly, were simulated with unprecedented resolution, revealing new insights into their turbulence and the dominant role of slow magnetosonic waves in heating ions. These findings pave the way [...]
