HONG KONG: Flashing lights that come from deep space, scientists believe, is a quasar that proves the existence of the merger of two black holes into the close orbiting binaries. According to researchers when two galaxies attain the final stage of merger, the super massive black holes tend to form a binary though there no evidence yet to prove this theory.
In this phenomenon known as binary black holes, the blackholes are bound to each other by gravitation since they are in a very close orbit.
Asst. Professor of astronomy Gezari, from the University of Maryland said that his team believed that they had observed 2 supermassive black holes in such close proximity than any time before and this pair could be so close that they are emitting gravitational waves as predicted by Einstein’s theory of general relativity.
Dust and matter surrounding black holes pull all the material due to gravitation force causing acceleration and emission of electromagnetic energy, which is called quasar or a flash of light.
When two black holes are orbiting as a binary they cyclically absorb matter suggesting that would brighten and dim periodically.
Researchers use Pan – STARRS 1 or Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System Medium Deep Survey to search the sky for this type of quasars.
