Black holes can create the "star-zombie"

Intermediate black hole has less mass.

In search of new tools and methods for the detection of astronomical objects, scientists sometimes use very complex models, which are often surprising. For example, the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Lawrence, with the help of a supercomputer, simulated a situation when a black hole of an intermediate mass collides with the white dwarf. The result is exciting and shocking – for a long time, a long dead star is animating!

The intermediate black hole has less mass than the supermassive, but it can migrate across the universe – in theory. A white dwarf is called a dead star, a very dense mass of matter that remains from its core and is hot enough to glow weakly.

But it does not cause thermonuclear reactions and does not reappear. The dwarf simply cools with time. If it is not crawling black hole.

The simulation shows that when the gravity of a black hole affects the white dwarf, the forces of the tide lead it first ellipsoid, then completely torn, which begins to turn and rush to a black hole. The process is not instantaneous, and in the first phase, the interstellar medium will have time to mix with the calcium and iron molecules of the haunted star. This will create the conditions necessary for nucleosynthesis and the monstrous gravitational effects will give us the energy necessary for exploitation. The "dead" star is alive and contains new nuclear reactions.

When it really is about the star as it was dead, it will stay, what happens with it is more reminiscent of convulsions of the corpse, which is beaten with electricity, d & # 39; Where the comparison with the zombies. And this is very important for science, because the change in behavior of the white dwarf can be identified as a very intermediate black hole. It is impossible to see, but for the rebirth of the star be observed in such powerful and unusual energy effects that it will serve as a beacon indicating the place of tragic events.
