Scientists Discovered Something New After Simulating A Black Hole

A team of researchers used supercomputers to simulate a black hole to find more details about this cosmic phenomenon. The experts found out the cause behind the flares these holes emit. The flares, which are intense bursts of light have plagued scientists for a long time. Dr. Bart Ripperda from the Flatiron Institute and Princeton University and his colleagues learned that the flares formed when magnetic fields broke apart then rejoined back together.
