Scientists Created Mini Black Hole In Lab And It Started Radiating @TheCosmosNews

#thecosmosnews Scientists ‘grow black hole in lab’ Scientists have created a black hole in a laboratory to test a decades-old Stephen Hawking theory. In a new study, researchers were able to recreate the conditions of a black hole in a lab, The US Sun reported. A black hole is an invisible place in space where gravity pulls so intensely that even light cannot escape it. The gravity in a black hole is so strong due to the dense matter being contained in a tiny space – this happens when a star is dying. In the study, a team of scientists used a single-file chain of atoms to simulate the event horizon of a black hole. What came next is something known as ‘Hawking Radiation’ – a theory proposed by the late physicist Stephen Hawking. Hawking radiation describes the hypothetical particles that arise outside a black hole’s boundaries because of relativistic quantum effects.
