Is a quasar bigger than a massive black hole?
Yes. A quasar is a disk of superheated material that sour rounds a supermassive black hole.
What is bigger a quasar or a black hole?
It depends, Black holes can go from being microscopic to supermassive black holes that entire galaxies revolve around. It all depends on which black hole and which quasar.
What is at center of a quasar?
A Supermassive black hole .
Are quasar's different from supermassive black holes?
Yes. In simplistic terms, a quasar is the result of a supermassive black hole. The gravitational attraction of the supermassive black hole on the galaxy, causes the effect of the quasar. See related questions for more information.
Do supermassive black holes swallow quasars?
No, a supermassive black hole is what makes a quasar.
Is the biggest quasar able to destroy the biggest supermassive black hole?
No, the biggest quasar is not capable of destroying the biggest supermassive black hole. Quasars are powered by the accretion of material onto supermassive black holes, so they are closely related. The interaction between a quasar and its host black hole is complex but does not result in the destruction of the black hole.
How does a quasar work?
A quasar is believed to have a supermassive black hole at its center. The radiation is emitted outside the black hole's event horizon - from matter that is falling into the black hole.
What is the most distant black hole in center of a quasar cal led as?
Quasars have a large black hole, called a "supermassive black hole". The term "supermassive black hole" simply means that it has millions or even billions of solar masses.
In what constellation is the center of the galaxy?
Not "the" quasar, but "a" quasar - there are many. A quasar is associated with a supermassive black hole, and those are generally at the center of galaxies.
Quasar in a sentence?
Astronomers have detected a quasar in a distant galaxy.
Why isn't a quasar a planet?
Quasars are not planets because they are not spherical and do not orbit a star. A quasar is a supermassive black hole in the process of consuming large amounts of matter.
How do quasars regulate the growth of black holes?
A quasar is a disk of superheated material falling into a supermassive black hole. The radiation from a quasar is so intense that it actually pushes matter away from the black hole, preventing it from falling in. This process limits how fast a black hole can grow.
