Astronomers have detected the astonishing interstellar event created by a massive black hole devouring a star — with scientists calling “Scary Barbie” one of the most powerful cosmic displays ever documented.and is slated to be published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters.
“We think a very supermassive black hole pulled in a star and ripped it apart,” graduate student Bhagya Subrayan, who collaborated on the research. Milisavljevic described, “If you take a typical supernova and multiply it a thousand times, we’re still not at how bright this is — and supernovas are among the most luminous objects in the sky.” In other words, the star went out with a bigger bang than most.While most transient events generally last weeks or a month, this cosmic combustion burned incandescently for over two years like a cosmic Menorah with no indication that’s fizzling out anytime soon.
