A new survey of 18 giant black holes shows that the biggest black holes may be even bigger than previously thought, with several weighing between 10 and 40 billion times the mass of the sun. the black hole at the center of this galaxy is part of a survey of 18 of the biggest black holes in the universe. this large elliptical galaxy is in the. In a galaxy at the center of a massive cluster named abell 1201, some 2.7 billion light years away, lurks a cosmic colossus. not content with being supermassive, the monster is an ultra massive black hole, clocking in at around 32.7 billion times the mass of the sun. the new figure exceeds previous estimates by at least 7 billion solar masses.
A survey of 18 giant black holes shows that at least ten may weigh between 10 and 40 billion times the mass of the sun. astronomers have dubbed these “ultramassive” black holes. this large. The rare "ultramassive" black hole sits at the centre of abell 1201, a supergiant elliptical galaxy residing in a galaxy cluster of the same name, about 2.7 billion light years from earth. This new analysis has looked at the brightest galaxies in a sample of 18 galaxy clusters, to target the largest black holes. the work suggests that at least ten of the galaxies contain an ultramassive black hole, weighing between 10 and 40 billion times the mass of the sun. astronomers refer to black holes of this size as "ultramassive" black. A new analysis suggests that at least 10 black holes in a sample of 18 galaxy clusters weigh between 10 and 40 billion times the mass of the sun. some of the biggest black holes in the universe.
