A very hot element has been detected by a gamma ray observatory Integral owned by European Space Agency, in a millisecond before he plunged into the middle of nowhere in the black hole (black hole).
These findings reveal the presence of a magnetic field structure that provides an opportunity for these particles escape being sucked by a black hole.

that would fall into a black hole Cygnus X1.
From the observations, several hundred kilometers from the central black hole, the space around an area full of particles and radiation storms. Comprising a giant storm of particles falling into a black hole at near the speed of light. As a result, the temperature rose to number millions of degrees Celsius.
Generally, it takes only a millisecond for the particles to reach that point. But now astronomers have found that the turbulent region that also has a magnetic field that provides a way out for the inhaled particles.
"The findings of the polarized emission from the jet black hole is a unique discovery," said Christoph Winkler, ESA Integral Project Scientist, as quoted from Cosmosmagazine. "This is the first time identified a magnetic field is very close to the black hole," he said.
The invention itself begins when Philippe Laurent, head of the research team from the Institute for Research into the Fundamental Laws of the Universe (IRFU) in France was observing black hole Cygnus X-1.
At that time, Laurent and his colleagues saw that he was gnawing a star that is nearby and "eat" the star's gas.
From the evidence they found, it was revealed that the magnetic field is strong enough to grab some particles of the gravitational force's giant black hole and threw him out, creating a burst of particles into free space.
"We need to use almost all the observations have been made by the Integral of Cygnus X-1 to perform this detection," said Laurent. "We do not know exactly how the fall is converted into particle jets.
There is still much debate going on among the observers, and further research will help to make conclusions, "said Laurent.
Prior to this, spray around the black hole was captured by radio telescopes, but such observations can not see the black hole in sufficient detail to determine how close the black hole was the source of bursts. "This makes the integral become very valuable research," said Laurent.
