Black Holes as Ghost Particle Accelerators

Using computer simulations, scientists uncovered how natural particle accelerators work in the searing coronas around supermassive black holes. Shock waves in the plasma transfer about 10% of their energy to protons—even from mild shocks. This explains why neutrinos arrive from active galaxies while
