This is the New Largest Radio Galaxy (Alcyoneus) [4K]
Переглядів 558,892
День томуWhat is the largest galaxy? For a long time, the largest has been IC 1101, around 4 million light years in diameter. But in recent weeks, there has been talk of a new, even larger galaxy, Alcyoneus, which is said to be more than 16 million light years in diameter! But is that what's really being proposed in the original paper detailing the discovery? Not exactly, because Alcyoneus is a Radio Galaxy. But what is a radio galaxy, and if Alcyoneus is not the largest galaxy, then how large really is it?

I've recently realised that watching and listening to videos about space, physics, dimensions and everything in between, are very reliable ways to get me to go to sleep. I've always had problems with sleep, as it's probably something to do with my mind being very active until the early hours of the morning (up until around 12am - 3am). These videos are so fascinating, because it's all speculation and theories about things that are so mind blowingly grand and complex for the human brain to comprehend. I end up getting completely lost in thought and start dreaming, which then eventually I fall asleep.

You know what the problem with your comment is, and I know you meant it as a complement, but somebody curious about the video may read your first few words and get the wrong idea as you said you fell asleep twice. The danger with that wording is that to many, saying you fell asleep to something is like saying you were bored with it. Sea himself has brought this up on occasion.

What I don't understand, is how a black hole inside a radiogalaxy can create that incredible amount of emissions with many parsecs of length on each side? What's the source of its "food"? These emissions are multiple times the mass of the stars inside the radiogalaxy. I hope that the James Webb telescope takes a look at Alcyone radiogalaxy. _Sorry for my English..._
@noririn7814 2 роки тому
Yeah same, I wonder if this could be the elusive white hole?
@sea_space 2 роки тому
The “food” for these emissions are particles from around the black hole. All black holes which spin have an accretion disc which is full of gas. This gas can be anything- pure hydrogen and helium, or evolved nebulous gases with heavy elements like iron in them. This gas is funnelled into the core of a given galaxy by the collisions that formed it, I.e. there continues to be lots of gas around the black hole to this day. Contrary to the popular belief of black holes “sucking everything in”, they actually consume only a negligible amount of this gas when compared with the amount that is flung around and ejected. One of these means of ejection is via the black hole’s relativistic jets. Individual particles get funnelled onto the polar axis by magnetic field influences, but the reason they are ejected with such force is unknown. The synchrotron radiation that highlights a radio galaxy and makes it visible is created when this ejected gas changes its state and becomes plasma- the neutral hydrogen, helium, oxygen or whatever the gas might be lose their electrons and become electrically charged- igniting into a plasma, generating magnetic fields, and thus we have a radio galaxy.
@prototropo Рік тому
@@sea_space The velocity of the ejections (rather than mere speed because the particles are yanked in as well as ejected out?) makes sense to me because black holes, share the angular momentum of the galaxy, obviously, but accelerated beyond imagination due to consolidation of matter compounded by the conservation of momentum. So the energies thrashing around would be so immense that anything under propulsion would approach the relativistic.
