🔭 Black hole 'burps' follow one universal rule

Scientists have uncovered a universal rule explaining how black holes launch powerful jets when consuming matter. This study, conducted by Andrew Mummery and Adelle Goodwin, focused on stellar and supermassive black holes across different sizes. Researchers analyzed 20 tidal disruption events, finding jets appear either immediately or after hundreds of days. The formation threshold aligns with a 2 percent accretion rate, proving the law is universal. This discovery helps astronomers plan observations for facilities like the SKA radio telescope. 🔭
