Sep 30, 2019 at 12:30 comment added Bilbo Baggins so kind of a chain reaction due to gravity, right? Once the mass falls due to its own gravity the mass is more dense and generates more gravity and hence forth, correct?
Sep 27, 2019 at 7:09 comment added TimRias Gravity. The gravity of the mass itself compresses the mass. When the mechanisms that counter-act this compression (such as pressure caused by radiation inside a star) a remove, the mass is free to collapse under its own weight and form a black hole.
Sep 27, 2019 at 6:53 comment added Bilbo Baggins what leads to such high compression of mass? And I will separate out the questions :)
