Tag: holm 15a posted on december 5, 2019 december 5, 2019 by evan gough there’s a new record for the most massive black hole ever seen: 40 billion solar masses. It’s titled “ a 40 billion solar mass black hole in the extreme core of holm 15a, the central galaxy of abell 85. the paper is based on only two nights of observations with the multi unit.
"we use orbit based, axisymmetric schwarzschild models to analyse the stellar kinematics of holm 15a from new high resolution, wide field spectral observations obtained with muse at the vlt. we find a supermassive black hole (smbh) with a mass of (4.0 ± 0.80) × 10 10 solar masses at the center of holm 15a," the researchers wrote in their paper. Holmberg 15a’s ultramassive black hole is estimated to have a mass of 40 billion times that of the sun. “this is the most massive black hole with a direct dynamical detection in the local universe,” the researchers said. “it is a factor of two larger than black holes in ngc 4889 (21 billion times that of the sun) and ngc 1600 (17. Holm 15a is a huge elliptical galaxy at the center of a cluster of galaxies called abell 85. a team of astronomers captured a snapshot of holm 15a’s stars in orbit around the galaxy’s central. Holm 15a holds the record for the heaviest black hole in the nearby universe. this is the large magellanic cloud, a nearby satellite galaxy to our milky way. it’s about 14,000 light years in.

We find a supermassive black hole (smbh) with a mass of (4.0 ± 0.80) × 1010 solar masses at the center of holm 15a," the research team explained in the new paper. "this is the most massive black hole with a direct dynamical detection in the local universe." conservatively encompassing 40 billion solar masses, the behemoth black hole's event. Isophotes of the galactic center of holmberg 15a [arxiv:1907.10608v2 [astro ph.ga]]. there is a relationship between the immense central black hole of holmberg 15a, whose mass is equal to almost 2.
