    I don't really understand what the issue was. By definition, the plunging region is between the Schwarzschild radius and the photon sphere, meaning that light can still escape but it can no longer go sideways without falling into the black hole. Why is anyone surprised that light was found to escape from a region that light can escape from?

    • @kylelochlann5053
      @kylelochlann5053 23 дня назад +4

      Well, between the horizon and the ISCO. I think the big news is that in the past we couldn't get observational information about that region.

    • @rosverlegaspo6752
      @rosverlegaspo6752 23 дня назад +10

      The problem is with the evidence/proof. It is predicted mathematically that such region exist, but we don't have evidence yet that it is actually there. This is essentially the first evidence that such region might actually exist.

    • @shawns0762
      @shawns0762 23 дня назад +3

      There is no Schwarzchild radius. Most people don't know that Einstein repeatedly said that singularities are not possible. In the 1939 journal "Annals of Mathematics" he wrote -
      "The essential result of this investigation is a clear understanding as to why the Schwarzchild singularities (Schwarzchild was the first to raise the issue of General Relativity predicting singularities) do not exist in physical reality. Although the theory given here treats only clusters whose particles move along circular paths it does seem to be subject to reasonable doubt that more general cases will have analogous results. The Schwarzchild singularities do not appear for the reason that matter cannot be concentrated arbitrarily. And this is due to the fact that otherwise the constituting particles would reach the velocity of light."
      He was reffering to the phenomenon of dilation (sometimes called gamma or y) mass that is dilated is smeared through spacetime relative to an outside observer. It's the phenomenon behind the phrase "mass becomes infinite at the speed of light". Time dilation is just one aspect of dilation, it's not just time that gets dilated. A graph illustrates its squared nature, dilation increases at an exponential rate the closer you get to the speed of light. Dilation will occur wherever there is an astronomical quantity of mass because high mass means high momentum, this includes the centers of very high mass stars and the centers of the overwhelming majority of galaxy centers.
      Dilation explains galaxy rotation curves/dark matter. It can be inferred mathematically that the mass at the center of our own galaxy must be dilated. This means that there is no valid XYZ coordinate that we can attribute to it, you can't point your finger at something that is smeared through spacetime. More precisely, everywhere you point is equally valid'. In other words that mass is all around us.
      The concept of singularities is preventing clarity in astronomy. They were popularized by television and movies beginning in the 1960's. Singularities were not taught in colleges before 1960. Nobody believed in them when he was alive including Planck, Bohr, Schrodinger, Dirac, Heisenberg, Feynman etc.

    • @rosverlegaspo6752
      @rosverlegaspo6752 22 дня назад

      ​@@shawns0762 I don't think people actually believe that singularities exist. They are understand to be mathematical artifacts that means our understanding breaks down and that it requires further research.
      Of course, there are attempts made where singularities are considered and see what comes out of it, but again, it is known that this is just mental exercises rather than the actual description of reality. That is just what we do with Maths.
      And while singularities are popular in fictional work, doesn't mean people actually believe they are real. Magic is popular, does that mean people think they are real? Not at all. Same with time travel, multiple world/universes, Star Wars, etc.. I don't know why you equate popularity in fiction means people actually believe in it.
      [Singularities were not taught in colleges before 1960]... but of course. That is actually true for the entire Theory of Relativity. The Theory of Relativity isn't taught in schools until that time. That is practically true with most scientific theories. That is true with Theory of Evolution for example, was still illegal to teach about it in school in the 1920s about 40 years after Darwin published his book). You are not making any point here. This is nothing but a non sequitur.
      So... You are just tilting at windmills.

    Anton, here's a hypothetical physics question for you - if you had a theoretical massless capacitor that had the ability to store more energy density than the energy of space time at the Plank Space Geodesic level, would the capacitor turn in to a black hole due to energy mass equivalence?

    • @jajssblue
      @jajssblue 23 дня назад +27

      Not Anton, but do have a Physics background. The answer would be yes. Einstein's equations accept any combination of mass or energy in a volume to produce curvature in spacetime. If that amount of energy or mass exceeds the Schwarzchild limit, then it will create a black hole. As far as our theories can guide us the amount of energy you're describing at the size is enough to reach this limit.

      and when you tear a space open, you only creating incision to form another space inside. you dont tear open a space into some hole towards some other universe. thats SCIENCE FICTION theory.
      and yes, THERE CAN BE A SPACE INSIDE A SPACE. is this means our universe can be inside another space? theoritically, but sadly, since there is no edge of the bubble of this universe, its not.

      @@ThePdog3k Not particularly no, it just follows from mass-energy equivalence. If you want to come up with stories about why some seemingly arbitrary physical parameters are what they are, whether a black hole starts from mostly mass or mostly energy doesn't really affect that, but basically anything involving Planck scale quantities you can make that analogy to a simulation's limit on render resolution. It's not evidence, but it's a fun mysiticism.

      At bigger scale it looks like a hawking radiation in a black hole. The sliding of virtual particles one going in the black hole, the other going in our univers as a real partcle.
      That singularly at the edg of the black hole is where nothingness is being unzipped into 2 worlds.

    You might be confusing the photon sphere with the isco. The photon sphere is at 1.5r_s, the isco is at 3r_s, right? Though if you twiddle the knobs for the full Kerr-Newman-de Sitter metric you might find something with an isco of 1.5r_s. Light should be able to escape from anything inside the isco but outside the photon sphere, though.

      @kylelochlann5053 23 дня назад +1

      In the Kerr geometry the ISCO can be anywhere between 0.5 r_s and 4.5 r_s, depending on the dimensionless spin parameter and the retrograde/prograde orbit.

  • @thedeemon
    @thedeemon 23 дня назад +1

    At 1.5R is the photon sphere, where orbits for light are possible. ISCO, innermost stable orbit for massive bodies, is twice further, at 3R. Both numbers for simple non-rotating black holes. With rotating ones it can get pretty extreme, down to event horizon itself.

    Anton, is there a way you can make a video about Chandra? Such as how much money is needed, what it is spent on, and why, since the telescope is operational, we can't turn it over to black hole and x-ray astronomers with perhaps astronomer requested patron and go-fund-me resources.

    Chandra is worth trying to bring back. A great use of an inflated aeroshell. Originally it was to have more reflectors and better resolution. So bring it back, built the additional reflecting cylinders and re fly it! If reentry fails, at least we tried.

    Since we have never observed a singularity that is supposedly inside a black hole, we don't actually know if it exists. Our mathematics describes what should be inside, but we don't really know. A black hole can have a dense chunk of matter on the inside with a non-zero radius. Perhaps it is the warping that makes it appear like a dot, but as you approach it, the dot will likely expand to the size of a neutron star, before you hit it.

      If an outside observer -- watching from a frame of reference far away enough from the black hole to be unaffected by gravitational time dilation -- watches an object approach a non-rotating black hole then the object will appear to the distant observer to slow down and actually stop at the event horizon.

    Black Hole Story Time: There is a video game called Megaton Rainfall. You play as a god-like superhero created by a god. Defending earth etc. What makes this game cool is you get to free roam explore the entire universe. You can fly up out of earth with NO LOADING and fly to the moon. You can move faster than light and leave the milky way and go to other galaxies. You can fly up to every star you see, and they will have planets you can land on. Well, one time I was playing on Nintendo Switch, and I got near a small blue star. I can see the dark shadow of a small planet and its rings. Sweet. Ima land on it and explore. So, I’m on the dark side and begin to fly down. Suddenly strange radio wave type sounds begin to play. OK, ground should be appearing any second. Then I noticed the horizon of the planet has moved higher above me.... that’s not right. On the ground the horizon should be even with my line of sight not above me. Suddenly I started taking damage. I then realized my mistake. What I thought was a ringed planet was not. it was a tiny Black Hole, and I just fell past the event horizon. I won’t tell you what happened but now when I play, I have constant fear. It really messed me up when it comes to BHs.

    Wouldn’t the observer falling into the black hole see the Galaxy rapidly evolve into eventual “end of the universe” due to the time dilation?
    And, wouldn’t the black hole likewise be evolving by “evaporate away” due to Hawking radiation?
    So, the observer would never truly reach the “singularity”? Hence, singularities don’t exist?

    • @kylelochlann5053
      @kylelochlann5053 23 дня назад

      No, there'd be plenty of light falling in after the traveler vanishes at the singularity. In the Kerr geometry the traveler can intercept all of the in-falling light due to the peculiar interior spacetime of a rotating black hole.
      No, the traveler vanishes at the singularity before it evaporates.

    The innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO), as the name indicates, is the last stable circular orbit with a minimal radius for a particle revolving around the black hole [1]. A particle will plunge into the black hole if its orbit radius is less than that of the ISCO.
    The object must be orbiting first for this to apply something could pass up to the event horizon and still escape the black hole as long as it not pulled into an orbit.
    By leaving out the orbit part Anton described the event horizon.
