![]() ![]() Thomas Krichbaum of the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy in Germany is a co-writer of the study. Seeing the whole area near a supermassive black hole can be helpful to scientists. He said the image shows for the first time the connection between the material pulled inward near the central supermassive black hole and the point from which the jet starts. Scientist Ru-Sen Lu of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Shanghai is the lead writer of the study, which was published in Nature. It is material so hot that some or all of its atoms are split into high-energy subatomic particles. Plasma is the fourth state of matter after solids, liquids, and gases. It shows the base of the jet of hot plasma, the light around the darkness of a black hole from hot plasma falling into it, and the central dark area. The new image shows how the base of such a jet connects with material around the black hole. Some not only take in any surrounding material, but also send out bright jets of high-energy particles far into space – beyond the galaxy from which they are from. Most galaxies are built around supermassive black holes. The image of the supermassive black hole in the galaxy M87 originally imaged by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration in 2019 is seen on the left and new image generated by the PRIMO algorithm using the same data set is seen on the right, in this combination handout picture. ![]()
