Neutron star near a supermassive black hole, illustration
Illustration of a neutron star (light blue) and its magnetic field near a super massive black hole (foreground) about to collide. The neutron star is deformed by the greater gravity of the black hole. In the collision, the neutron star will be blown up and mostly swallowed up by black hole. The magnetic shaft concentrates jets of emitted charged particles., Creditline:RAMON ANDRADE 3DCIENCIA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY
