Astronomy
Schwarzschild Radius Calculator
Compute the Schwarzschild radius — the event horizon size of a non-rotating black hole — from its mass via r_s = 2GM/c². The defining length scale of black holes, equal to about 3 km per solar mass.
Fill in the required fields to see your result.
Astronomy
Redshift Velocity Calculator
Compute the recession velocity of a nearby galaxy from its redshift z using v = c·z, where c is the speed of light. Part of the Hubble-Lemaître law — the empirical relation that established the expanding universe.
