Scientists say fast-spinning black holes could split in two, but none observed

Recent theoretical study explores whether rapidly spinning black holes can split into two smaller black holes. Scientists have long believed that black holes are incapable of splitting due to entropy and the area theorem. The research proposes that under specific conditions, a spinning black hole could theoretically divide without violating physical laws. It introduces the concept of a…
