Some supermassive black holes in the center of galaxies may actually be wormholes that connect two distant parts of the universe, astrophysicists suggest.

In the theory of general relativity, Albert Einstein predicted the existence of wormholes, which connect two points in space or time, but they have not yet been discovered.

Now experts at Russia’s Central Astronomical Observatory believe that the “black holes” in the center of very bright galaxies (known as active galactic nuclei or AGNs) could be the entrances to these wormholes.

While these wormholes are theoretically “traversable”, meaning that the spacecraft could travel through them, they are surrounded by intense radiation, which means that humans are unlikely to survive the journey, even in the most rugged spaceships.

Some galaxies have an “active galactic nucleus” at their center – a phenomenon resembling a supermassive black hole with jets of matter gushing from the poles of the accretion disk.

Wormholes and black holes are very similar, in the sense that they are both extremely dense and possess extraordinarily strong gravitational attractions for bodies of their size.

The difference is that nothing can come out of a black hole after it has crossed its “event horizon,” while any body that enters the mouth of a wormhole would theoretically come out of its other “mouth” elsewhere. of the universe.

The researchers argued that matter entering one mouth of a wormhole could collide with matter entering the other mouth of the wormhole at the same time.

This collision would lead to the expansion of the plasma spheres in both mouths of the wormhole at the speed of light and at temperatures of about 18 trillion degrees Fahrenheit.

At such heat, plasma would also produce gamma rays with energies of 68 million volts, allowing some NASA observatories – such as the Fermi space telescope – to detect the explosion.

The nearest AGN is in the constellation Centaurus A, which is about 13 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Centaurus (pictured).

The new study, published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, examined the type of energy and radiation produced by AGN.

AGNs are generally surrounded by plasma rings known as storage disks and can emit strong jets of radiation from their poles.

The jets of energy produced by the storage disks are not nearly as hot as the jets that would be emitted from the collisions in the wormholes.

However, the researchers suggest that if they discovered what appeared to be an AGN that emits high-energy spherical gamma rays, then it may not be an AGN at all, but the entrance to a wormhole.

The Russian team believes that these AGNs are wormholes to another part of the universe and can be detected by observing extremely hot and intense energy explosions caused by matter on both sides of the wormhole colliding in the throat.

Researchers go further, suggesting that these wormholes could be “traversable”, which means that the spacecraft could theoretically travel through them.

“It should be understood that we know very little about the internal structure of wormholes and, moreover, we are not even sure if there are any,” study author Mikhail Piotrovich told Motherboard.

If humans ever traveled to these distant galactic nuclei, it would open up a new potential space flight path or even a way to travel through time, he said.

However, they are surrounded by intense radiation, and the nearest is 13 million light-years away, so it is unlikely that humans will be able to use one to travel to the universe soon.

The findings were published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Society.

WHAT’S INSIDE A BLACK HOLE?

Black holes are strange objects in the universe that get their name from the fact that nothing can escape gravity, not even light.

If you venture too close and cross the so-called event horizon, the point from which no light can escape, you will also be trapped or destroyed.

For small black holes, you wouldn’t survive such a tight approach anyway.

The tidal forces close to the horizon of events are enough to stretch any matter until it is just a series of atoms, in a process that physicists call “spaghetti”.

But for large black holes, such as supermassive objects in the core of galaxies such as the Milky Way, which weigh tens of millions, if not billions of times the mass of a star, crossing the horizon of events would be devoid of events.

Because it should be possible for us to survive the transition from our world to the world of black holes, physicists and mathematicians have long wondered what that world would look like.

They used Einstein’s equations of general relativity to predict the world inside a black hole.

These equations work well until an observer reaches the center or singularity, where, in theoretical calculations, the curvature of space-time becomes infinite.
