I would thank if someone indicated studies on this subject...

What if a massive black hole encounters a less massive black hole?
Depending on masses and distances could it be established a relation where the less massive one could influence the more massive one? Like the moon influences tides on earth?...

Just some day-dreaming - nothing rigorous:

Medium and small black holes are incredibly violent but BIG BLACK HOLES are a different matter. Their density is very low and you could drift through the event horizon without noticing. Once inside you would be surprised to find no sign of a central singularity in the sense of a point in space located some distance in front of you. By falling in you would have exchanged the radial space dimension for the dimension of time, so the singularity would now seem to be a point in time many aeons in your past. You would notice that your environment was spacially homogeneous over large scales with no apparent boundaries - and call it YOUR UNIVERSE.

It could lead to that conclusion... wink.gif

Is there some theoretic scenario presenting a black hole like a, pardon me my non-astrophysical terms..., whirlpool-like-stomach?... smile.gif
Processing some particles and releasing those that are not used (this is not a pleasant thing to imagine...) in one eventual extremity? Or does a black hole consume EVERYTHING? Gravitons can escape... rolleyes.gif
