... Bad Astronomy . ... Bitesize Astronomy . ... Last week's Snack talked about how black holes can affect the environment around them in such a way as to be very bright . ... It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

... Using the DRAO Synthesis Telescope (Landecker et al. 2000), the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey ( CGPS ; Taylor et al. 2002) has captured a multitude of HISA features, the majority of which are invisible in prior surveys at lower resolution. ... Since the HISA gas temperature must be less than the background brightness temperature, all the H I shown in this poster has T ~ 100 K. Figure 1 provides panoramic views of the cold H I visible as HISA in the CGPS. ... GIFs: HISA + CO | HISA only | ...
