Is this possible?! what happens when....

k, what happens when 2 blackholes crash or collide or merge or what....?
what happens?

 

[NeutralDrow]

They form a larger (or at least more massive) black hole.

Bingo.

Black holes also decay, so if you had a black hole with very small mass it could decay in moments.

Um, is that all?

but how can two singularities be right beside each other if their well.........singluarities?

wait.....but how can black holes decay?
i read something that said they are the only entity other then raw energy that has no end. like, it cant be destroyed or prevented or whatever....how do they decay? what actual...thing...is decaying? does that just mean they just dissipate at the end of it all?

 

[quack35]

Divide two by zero. That should give you your answer.

Black holes can move, just like stars can. If they move close enough to each other, they'll merge.

Hawking Radiation. Simple explanation: according to quantum physics, particle locations aren't concrete locations, but areas of probable location. In other words, there's, say, a 95% chance that a given electron is where we'd expect it to be, but a 5% or less chance that it will suddenly be elsewhere. Over astronomical periods of time in this way, black holes can lose mass, until they get small enough to explode. <url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawking_radiation>Complicated explanation.

When two black holes collide, they merge and create the Hadron Collider. When two Hadron Colliders collide, they merge to form a pop-tart. When two pop-tarts collide they form a very delicious breakfast. When two very delicious breakfasts collide and merge, they form the Spider God of the sixteenth dimension. When the Spider God of the sixteenth dimension manifests on Earth, Pluto becomes a planet again.

That wont happen so dont worry about it. They dont move according to physics, they just pull and dont move.

You mean that thing from Futurama movie? Don't worry, it means no harm. It just wants to make love to our entire galaxy.

There is a thing that occurs, which has been named by scientists as the "Great-Big-Cosmic-Fuck-Up". They theorise that if you see one of these, your brain will explode.

 

[Xvito]

Um... Wasn't this thread over at post number one?

Because that is what happens.

 

[SomeLameStuff]

This is my theory:

They eat each other and die.

i thought of the muse song "super massive black hole"

The universe divides by zero, and gets...

a bigger black hole.

Yes, I did, or at least I thought of the "Now this is what it's like when worlds COLLIDE!" line. Then I felt old. That wasn't that long ago, was it?

I've always felt that those skirts are far too long.

Giant binary system, it's how black holes were discovered in the first place, they found a sun was in orbit with something that they couldn't see in visible light.

To the OP, in theory (based off other binary systems) if they started to get close enough to each others surfaces (about the event horizon of the larger mass black hole), it would start pulling (accreting) what ever type of matter the lighter black hole is made up of off of the lighter black hole onto it's self. Note how I'm using lighter and heavier rather than larger and smaller, degeneracy is a *****, a larger degenerate object in theory should be lighter than a smaller one. Now consider we have no idea how a black hole is made up because it's so dense it overcomes something "neutron degeneracy", i.e. Neutrons are no longer supported by their quantum physically established boundaries.
