Astronomers See Evidence Of Supermassive Black Holes Forming Directly Astronomers have used the nasa esa james webb space telescope to confirm that supermassive black holes can starve their host galaxies of the fuel they need to form new stars. the international. The problem with that explanation is that it takes a long time to happen. this artist’s impression shows the surroundings of a supermassive black hole, typical of that found at the heart of many.

Here’s how it works. using the james webb space telescope (jwst), astronomers have observed a supermassive black hole in the early universe that is killing its galaxy by starving it to death. Astronomers have learned that supermassive black holes (smbhs) reside at the heart of massive galaxies and have shaped their galaxies in powerful ways. smbhs create powerful active galactic nuclei. A team of scientists has presented their research into pablo's galaxy in a new paper titled " a fast rotator post starburst galaxy quenched by supermassive black hole feedback at z = 3." the paper is published in nature astronomy, and the co lead author is francesco d'eugenio from the kavli institute for cosmology and the cavendish laboratory.
