Two million light-years
from the center of a distant galaxy trail make bigger, surprisingly suggestive
of a jet stream that reserve military fighter jet engine only in this case is a
black hole, and the substance of the jet is moving at a speed close to the
speed of light.
The new image of the
jet which has been studied previously designated as PKS 0637-752, showing
alternating light and dark areas on it, similar to the phenomenon in jet
fighter jets, called "diamond condensation".
A team of scientists led
by Dr. Leif Godfrey from the Department Kertinskogo University International
Radio Astronomy Centre recently conducted study PKS 0637-752. Astronomers say
that such jets occur when the matter in the galaxy falls into a black hole, but
much in the origin of these phenomena is still a mystery to them. However,
researchers believe that if the appearance of the light areas in the
astronomical jet caused by the same processes as the appearance of diamonds in
the thickening of the earth fighter jet stream, it could give scientists
important information about the strength of the jet and the space density of
the surrounding space.
A new study on PKS
0637-752, appeared in the journal The Astrophysical Journal Letters.
