41. Submitting To The Black Hole Tables summarizing input from authors on respose time for SF markets. Updated constantly. http://www.critique.org/critters/blackholes

Submitting to the Black Hole While many Science Fiction/Fantasy/Horror magazine and book publishers respond to submissions in a timely manner, many don't; and sometimes their response times are at odds with those stated in their guidelines. Which is to say, when writers submit a manuscript to an editor, they often feel like they've launched it toward a black hole. These pages are an attempt to locate verifiable response time data as well as "horror stories" for markets that have kept (or are keeping) manuscripts far longer than one might consider reasonable. (Credit the idea to Sharon Lee, former President of SFWA Authors are encouraged to drop by to get a handle on how long to expect a manuscript will be at a given market (and, perhaps, get a sense of when to query ). There is also some hope that this public knowledge will encourage editors to speed up their responsiveness, or at least alter their guidelines to match their reality. Authors are also asked nay, begged to report their own response times. This helps everyone. (Note that only paying markets are tracked.)

SPACE.com Black holes may not be the smooth, featureless gravitational gluttons long thought to completely devour any matter or information that strays too close. According to a new study, information may continue to exist long after entering a black hole, preserved in a giant tangle of strings that stretch from the hole's core to its surface, giving it more of a "fuzzball" appearance than that of a smooth gravitational beast. "I think that most people gave up on the idea that information was destroyed once the idea of string theory rose to prominence in 1995," said Samir Mathur, an Ohio State physics professor and the leader of the recent study. "It's just that nobody has been able to prove that the information survives before now."

49. StarChild: Dr. Stephen Hawking Tells about the physicist known for his study of black holes. http://starchild.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/StarChild/whos_who_level2/hawking.html

Dr. Stephen Hawking Isn't that amazing? Dr. Hawking is best known for his discovery that black holes emit radiation which can be detected by special instrumentation. His discovery has made the detailed study of black holes possible. Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford, England on January 8, 1942. At the age of 17, he enrolled at University College, Oxford. He wanted to study mathematics, but resorted to the study of physics when math was unavailable. He pursued a Ph.D. in physics despite being diagnosed with Ameliotrophic Lateral Sclerosis while at Oxford. This disease is progressive and slowly affects the nerves supplying all muscles in the body. In 1985 he became ill with pneumonia and since that time he has required 24-hour nursing care. Through Dr. Hawking's incredible determination and with the help of family and associates, he continues to work. In 1970 he began work on the characteristics of black holes. As a result of his research, Dr. Hawking predicted that black holes emit radiation in the X-ray to gamma-ray range of the spectrum . In the 1980s he returned to an earlier interest in the origins of the Universe and how quantum mechanics may affect its fate. He has co-authored many publications such as "300 Years of Gravity" and "The Large Scale Structure of Space-time". Dr. Hawking has written books such as

The physicist told a conference on gravitation in Dublin that he has revised his belief that black holes destroy everything that falls on them. He now believes that black holes may allow information to get out. His new research could even help solve the "black hole information paradox", a crucial puzzle for modern physics. He spoke to a packed lecture hall at the 17th International Conference on General Relativity and Gravitation, giving his new views in a presentation entitled The Information Paradox For Black Holes. He is revising his 1975 ideas that are regarded as the most astonishing breakthrough in black hole studies.

April 2002 Leaping the Abyss Stephen Hawking on black holes, unified field theory, and Marilyn Monroe. By Gregory Benford Stephen Hawking seemed slightly worse, as always. It is a miracle that he has clung to life for over 20 years with Lou Gehrig’s disease. Each time I see him I feel that this will be the last, that he cannot hold on to such a thin thread for much longer. Hawking turned 60 in January. Over the course of his brilliant career, he has worked out many of the basics of black hole physics, including, most strikingly, his prediction that black holes aren’t entirely black. Instead, if they have masses equivalent to a mountain’s, they radiate particles of all kinds. Smaller holes would disappear in a fizz of radiation a signature that astronomers have searched for but so far not found. The enormous success of Hawking’s 1988 book, A Brief History of Time , has made him a curious kind of cultural icon. He wonders how many of the starlets and rock stars who mentioned the book on talk shows actually read it. With his latest book

Hidden Black Holes Finally Found By Robert Roy Britt Senior Science Writer posted: 03 August 2005 01:24 pm ET A host of hidden black holes have been revealed in a narrow region of the sky, confirming astronomers' suspicions that the universe is loaded with many undetected gravity wells. Black holes cannot be seen directly, because they trap light and anything else that gets too close. But astronomers infer their presence by noting the behavior of material nearby: gas is superheated and accelerated to a significant fraction of light-speed just before it is consumed. The activity releases X-rays that escape the black hole's clutches and reveal its presence. The most active black holes eat so voraciously that they create a colossal cloud of gas and dust around them, through which astronomers cannot peer. That sometimes prevents observations of the region nearest the black hole, making it impossible to verify what's actually there. These hyperactive black holes are called quasars . They can consume the mass of a thousand stars a year and are thought to be precursers to large, normal galaxies. The exist primarily at great distances, seen as they existed when the universe was young.

Dark Stars, Black Holes, Bright Galaxies "Hearts of Darkness" Galaxies We live in a spiral galaxy. Our Solar System resides about three quarters of the way out from the centre of our Galaxy, or "Milky Way", in a spiral arm consisting of gas and young stars. However, galaxies exist in several different forms. Elliptical galaxies are large, round, aggregates of predominantly old stars. Spirals, like our Galaxy, possess disks with catherine wheel-like arms that are the sites of ongoing star formation. An infrared image of our Galaxy taken by the Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment (DIRBE) instrument on the NASA Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) satellite. The galactic plane runs horizontally along the middle of the image. Absorption by interstellar dust is minimized at infrared wavelengths allowing a clearer view of the plane and centre of our Galaxy. Irregular galaxies, as their name implies, lack a well defined structure, but usually possess numerous star formation regions and large amounts of gas and interstellar dust (micron sized particles made up of carbon and silicon). Galaxies inhabit variously populated regions of space. The low density regions are well populated by spiral and irregular galaxies, whilst the denser, rich clusters are dominated by elliptical galaxies.

The findings could shed light on how galaxies form and interact with surrounding star groups as well as revamp theories on the evolution of the universe. Using the Hubble Space Telescope, researchers confirmed for the first time the existence of medium-size black holes, according to NASA, which announced the findings Tuesday. "Black holes are more common in the universe than previously thought," said Hubble scientist Roeland van der Marel. "These findings may be telling us something very deep about the formation of star clusters and black holes in the early universe." Van der Marel and colleagues found the elusive class of black holes, previously only the subject of speculation, in the hearts of globular star clusters.
