New research proposes that the 'little red dots' observed by the JWST in the early universe may be 'black hole stars'—dense spheres of gas powered by supermassive black holes—potentially explaining the rapid growth of supermassive black holes in the universe's infancy.
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have discovered tiny, luminous objects called 'little red dots' in the early universe that may be a new type of star powered by embedded black holes, potentially representing a phase in the formation of supermassive black holes. These objects challenge existing classifications and could provide insights into black hole growth and galaxy evolution.
