Black holes may reveal dark matter through collisions

Scientists propose using supermassive black holes as natural particle colliders to search for dark matter, potentially surpassing the capabilities of Earth-based accelerators. Researchers believe the extreme environments around these black holes, particularly their high-speed particle collisions, could mimic the processes of the Large Hadron Collider, but at a much larger scale. This approach could offer a more cost-effective way to study dark matter. This research suggests that the violent conditions near black holes, fueled by their spin, could generate high-energy particles that might provide evidence of dark matter, which is currently undetectable.
