According to classical theories, a supermassive black hole arises at the center of a galaxy in the process of being captured
However, observations show that after 800 million years,After the Big Bang, there were supermassive black holes in the early universe, which, according to classical theories, would not have had time to form.
In their work, scientists created a model of formationsupermassive black holes and found that the merger of several ordinary black holes into one supermassive allows the latter to reach a mass of 10 thousand to 1 million times greater than the mass of the Sun, in just 50-100 million years.
Researchers note that observations using the LISA and LIGO / Virgo observatories will help verify this theory.
"The merger of numerous black holes in the centers of galaxies will produce gravitational waves, which we expect to see and study with existing and future detectors."

Earlier scientistsfound outthat tsunamis on quasars can prevent the formation of stars.
