A new study from Johns Hopkins University suggests that supermassive black holes—those cosmic behemoths lurking at the centers of galaxies—might already be generating the kinds of high-energy particle collisions researchers have spent decades trying to recreate here on Earth. Published today in Physical Review Letters, the study proposes that certain spinning black holes could serve as natural particle accelerators, rivaling or even exceeding the capabilities of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
