A study published in Nature Astronomy reveals that supermassive black holes fire off powerful jets in two distinct phases during their feeding cycles, regardless of their size. The research used radio telescope observations of 20 tidal disruption events.
“Black holes are 'actually very messy eaters'—only about half of the star that gets too close will end up being swallowed.”
