A new study suggests that some massive stars may collapse directly into black holes without undergoing a supernova explosion. Evidence from the binary system VFTS 243, which contains a massive star and a black hole, supports this theory. This finding could change our understanding of stellar evolution and the distribution of elements in the universe.
Scientists have found evidence that some massive stars may collapse into black holes without a supernova explosion, as observed in the binary system VFTS 243. This challenges the traditional understanding of stellar evolution and has implications for the creation and distribution of elements in the universe.
A new study suggests that some stars may vanish by collapsing directly into black holes without a supernova explosion. This theory, supported by observations of the binary star system VFTS 243, could explain the mysterious disappearance of around 100 stars cataloged by the VASCO project. The findings highlight the potential for total collapse scenarios in stellar evolution, providing a new perspective on how massive stars end their life cycles.
