Meet ‘lite intermediate black holes,’ the supermassive black hole’s smaller, much more mysterious cousin
Meet ‘lite intermediate black holes,’ the supermassive black hole’s smaller, much more mysterious cousin Scientists have been searching for “lite intermediate black holes” (IMBHs), which are black holes with masses between stellar and supermassive black holes, as they can provide insights into how the universe grows and evolves. The detection of IMBHs is challenging due […]
