But astronomers have figured out that black holes are at the center of large concentrations of light-emitting matter (our own Milky Way features a supermassive black hole at its center).
The research is the first in a series of works that is attempting to model black hole masses, from star-sized ones up to supermassive black holes.Stellar-mass black holes arise from the collapsed cores of dead stars, but the origins of supermassive black holes are more of a mystery.
