    New Study Reveals Rapid Growth of Supermassive Black Holes in Young Universe using X-ray Observations

    Broke On: Wednesday, 12 June 2024 Researchers led by Penn State astronomers Fan Zou and W. Niel Brandt combined X-ray data from NASA's Chandra, ESA's XMM-Newton, and the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics eROSITA telescope to model the growth of supermassive black holes in galaxies. They studied over 8,000 rapidly growing black holes in a sample of 1.3 million galaxies and found that they grew much more rapidly when the Universe was younger, shedding light on galaxy evolution.
