The X-ray emissions at Cygnus XI are not escaping the black hole, they are an effect of the black hole. Pair production occurs at the event horizon, with one particale falling in, and one particale being ejected with equal and oppisite force. Not more than a tiny fraction of the ejecta actually reach escape velocity, only those moving at the speed of light, or very, very close to it. Like X-rays. > Curious, should faster than the speed of lights particles should > exist what will be their effect if such a particle collided with a particle? Where are those Tachyons... they were here a minute ago, and I'm sure they're going to be here a minute before that... ;-).
