📍 Aftermath

Scientists have established a universal rule governing the formation of powerful jets by black holes, suggesting that these events occur at specific accretion phases. The research, which applies to both stellar and supermassive black holes, has shed light on the mysterious phenomenon of black holes "burping." Further study of the critical accretion rate may provide a deeper understanding of black hole behavior.

Quick answers

What triggers black holes to 'burp'?

According to research, black holes expel matter at two key accretion phases.

What is the universal rule for black hole jet formation?

A black hole reaches a universal critical accretion rate to launch a powerful jet.

What sizes of black holes are affected by the discovery?

The research applies to black holes of all sizes, from stellar to supermassive.
