The Center for Astroparticles and High Energy Physics (CAPA) at the University of Zaragoza has participated in a study published in Nature Astronomy.
The research, led by an international collaboration including Professor Jacobo Asorey Barreiro, has discovered a relationship between the orientation of particle jets from supermassive black holes and the minor axis of the elliptical galaxies that host them. This finding suggests that black holes influence not only their immediate surroundings but also the entire galaxy, highlighting a remarkable connection between structures of vastly different scales.
