Black holes keep 'burping up' stars they destroyed years earlier, and astronomers don't know why
Years after ripping stars to shreds, 24 black holes suddenly flared up with radio waves in inexplicable 'burping' bouts. Half of all star-killing black holes may experience the same.

Oh that's cool. If her colleague is right, they found a natural particle collider. It would have many times the energy of the LHC too

Could black hole near misses by stars possibly have fused some elements which novas can't explain?
