What caused the rapid growth of black holes





According to the existing theories of the formation of the Universe, it originated almost immediately after the Big Bang, and black holes in that period grew at a pace significantly greater than the observed current. For a long time what was so rapid their growth. Found out the reason recently, scientists Priyamvada Natarajan (American Yale University) and Tal Alexander (Weizmann Institute of Science) who believe that it is in dense gases billions of years ago was in the Universe.

They had the effect of leading to such growth of black holes in the absence of disk accretion. In the center of each large, and possibly all galaxies, according to the theory adopted today are black holes sucking up matter. At the same time, his movement is noticeably reduced with the construction of the said disk (because only in that plane can the matter be delayed).

But there is another problem associated with the possible collision of this stuff, because as you get closer to the black hole, so that it repelled, objects emit tremendous energy. Nowadays it has a scientific explanation for the experts involved in the study of space, creates a huge problem: how did black holes grow in short time to such huge sizes?

The authors of the new discoveries are sure that the newly formed universe was much denser and much smaller, so were the gas (very dense and cold) near the black hole could heat up in collisions. And gravity of stars, nearby, that, probably, even more important, forced a black hole to make a chaotic movement, not allowed to form the accretion disk. This leads to the fact that the substance is captured by a black hole in any possible direction, resulting in a significant increase in the rate of growth of black hole masses.

Built a model based on these ideas, suggests that over the past billions of years masses of black holes, which was ten times more solar at the time of formation of the Universe, could "grow" to such an extent.
