According to a rule known as the no-hair theorem, any other distinguishing characteristics, or “hair,” are quickly cast off
That includes magnetic fields. The rule applies to black holes in a vacuum, where magnetic fields can simply slip away.
What happens when a black hole is born?
If its mass collapses into an infinitely small point, a black hole is born. Packing all of that bulk—many times the mass of our own sun—into such a tiny point gives black holes their powerful gravitational pull. Thousands of these stellar-mass black holes may lurk within our own Milky Way galaxy.
What can destroy a black hole?
Eventually, in theory, black holes will evaporate through Hawking radiation. But it would take much longer than the entire age of the universe for most black holes we know about to significantly evaporate. Black holes, even the ones around a few times the mass of the Sun, will be around for a really, really long time!24 Jan 2024
