The universe’s most massive black holes may not be born directly from dying stars. Some of the heaviest ones detected through gravitational waves appear to be built, collision by collision, inside the densest stellar neighborhoods in the cosmos. That conclusion comes from a new analysis of gravitational wave data from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA network. The research [...] The post There’s a wall at 45 solar masses where dying stars can no longer leave black holes behind, and gravitational wave statistics just confirmed it was real all along appeared first on Space Daily .
