#Exascale computing is allowing James Stone of the Institute for Advanced Study to model how radiation affects accretion-- the energy release as gravity powerfully pulls matter inward-- at the center of black holes. https://ascr-discovery.org/2024/03/aiming-exascale-at-black-holes/ #Polaris #Frontier #ALCF #OLCF #doescience #HPC
Aiming exascale at black holes - ASCR Discovery

In 1783, John Michell worked as a rector in northern England, but his scientific work proposed that the mass of a star could reach a point where its gravity prevented the escape of most anything, even light. The same prediction … Continue reading →
