A Scientist's Tiny Black Hole Brings the Cosmos Into the Lab
Inside his lab in Israel, Jeff Steinhauer crafts microscopic black holes. These objects are but humble specks, lacking the spaghettifying suction strength of an actual dead star. But Steinhauer, a physicist at the research university Technion, assures me that heβs constructed them mathematically to scale. Zoom in far enough, and youβll see a miniature event horizon restaging the drama of a true black hole.
