Black Holes

JWST observations of dwarf galaxies NGC 4486B and UCD736 in the Virgo Cluster reveal 'overmassive' black holes resulting from past mergers. These black holes, comprising significant mass fractions, illustrate the evolutionary effects of galaxy interactions. The study, led by Monica Valluri, highlights the gravitational waves produced and the potential for black hole resettlement within 30 to 80 million years.
