Black hole and infalling matter (top and bottom). A black hole is formed when the core of a star collapses under its own weight,increasing the strength of its gravitational field to the point where not even light can escape. Infalling matter (here,dust) will heat up and emit X-rays and other forms of radiation as it is torn apart by the immense forces of the black hole | |
