The Cleveland Museum of Natural History has announced its fall speaker lineup, led by physicist Gabriela González, known for her work on gravitational wave detection, and science communicator Hank Green. The talk series aims to bring high-profile figures in research and popular science to Cleveland audiences this autumn.
- 2Black Holes Might Shed 'Hair' and Turn Into Boson Stars▼A Black Hole Could Spit Itself Out of Its Own Hair, Leaving a Boson Star in Its Wake
Physicists propose that under certain conditions a black hole could shed its 'hair' — quantum fields trapped around it — and transition into a boson star, an exotic object made of particles with no surface or event horizon. The idea, reported by ScienceAlert, touches on the 'no-hair theorem' and could offer new ways to test black hole physics through gravitational wave observations.
