Astrophysicists Detect First Black Hole-Neutron Star Merger

PRIANGAN ZONE – Astrophysicists have observed the merging of black holes aka ‘black hole‘ with star neutron for the first time. About 900 million light years away, a black hole engulfs star neutron.

Ten days later, another black hole devours comrades star neutrons, and the two events caused gravitational waves that finally hit our planet in January last year.

And this is the first time astrophysicists have determined the merger of a black hole with a star neutron. The study by an international team of astrophysicists, including researchers from Northwestern University, will help experts in the field draw the first conclusions about the origins of these rare binary systems and how often they combine.

Chase Kimball, a Northwestern graduate student who co-authored the study published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters, said that gravitational waves allowed researchers and astrophysicists to detect collisions between black hole pairs and star neutron.

But the mixed collision between the black hole with neutron. star had avoided them until now.

“With this detection, we finally have a measurement of the merger rate across all three categories of compact binary mergers,” said Kimball, quoted by NDTV’s ZonaPriangan.com, Friday, July 2, 2021.

The researchers observed two new gravitational wave events they now refer to as GW200105 and GW200115, on January 5, 2020 and January 15, 2020, respectively, during the second half of the observations of the three detectors LIGO and Virgo.
