Café & Kosmos

Schwarze Löcher nah und fern

Date: Jul 30, 2019
Time: 19:00 - 20:30
Speaker: Prof. Thomas Boller (MPE)
Location: Muffatwerk, Zellstr. 4 (S-Bahn, Isartor / Rosenheimer Platz)

Vor kurzem veröffentlichte das Event Horizon Teleskop das erste Bild von einem Schwarzen Loch – genauer gesagt dem Zentrum der Galaxie M87. Auch wenn man derartige Objekte nicht direkt sehen kann (auch dieses Bild zeigt eigentlich den Schatten des Schwarzen Lochs umgeben von einem heißen Ring aus Gas), sind sich die Astronomen inzwischen sicher, das praktische jede Galaxie eine derartige Schwerkraftfalle beherbergt. Wie man zu dieser Erkenntnis gelangt ist und was man mittlerweile über diese exotischen Objekte weiss, erklärt Prof. Thomas Boller vom MPI für Extraterrestrische Physik im Café & Kosmos im Juli.
