Unraveling the Enigma of Magnetism: A Breakthrough in Understanding Black Holes

Scientists have made progress in understanding the magnetic field transport processes in black hole accretion flows and the formation of magnetically arrested disks (MADs) near black holes. The study suggests that a strong magnetic field in the disk surrounding a black hole can push back against its gravitational pull, temporarily halting the process of material falling into it.
