Chandrasekhar limit

Betelgeuse

Black Hole

Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar ( 1910/1995) Mu Cep Antares

(10−10 m).

“out of existence”

Black Hole “Black”

infinitely strong gravitational field

gravity

nothing, not even a beam of light (speed of 300 000 km/s), can escape it

the curvature in the space-time of Einstein is infinite near the black hole

Albert Einstein (1879/1955)

“event horizon”

limit of Black Hole

“Accretion Disk”

“THE BLACK HOLES ARE NOT SO BLACK”

flat disk of spinning material around the Black Hole

high speeds

glow

jets of high-speed gas

intense magnetic fields like a pulsar
