The term `` fractal '' was first used by mathematician Benoît Mandelbrot in 1975 .
The word fractal was made by Benoît Mandelbrot in 1975 from the Latin word fractus , which means `` broken '' or `` fractured '' .
The concept of fractal extends beyond self-similarity and includes the idea of a detailed pattern repeating itself .

Astrophysicists agree that once a black hole is in place in the center of a galaxy , it can grow by accretion of matter and by merging with other black holes .
Astrophysicists agree that once a black hole is in place in the center of a galaxy , it can grow by attracting matter and by merging with other black holes .
A major constraining factor for theories of supermassive black hole formation is the observation of distant luminous quasars , which indicate that supermassive black holes of billions of solar masses had already formed when the Universe was less than one billion years old .
Supermassive black holes of billions of solar masses had already formed when the Universe was less than one billion years old .
Astronomers are confident that our own Milky Way galaxy has a supermassive black hole at its center , 26,000 light-years from the Solar System , in a region called Sagittarius A \* because : The Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics and UCLA Galactic Center Group have provided the strongest evidence to date...
The region is called Sagittarius A \* , and the evidence for its being a black hole is : The Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics , and the UCLA Galactic Center Group , have provided strong evidence that Sagittarius A \* is the site of a supermassive black hole .
Between these regimes there appears to be a dearth of intermediate-mass black holes .
Between these extremes there appears to be few intermediate-mass black holes .
Observations reveal that quasars were much more frequent when the Universe was younger , indicating that supermassive black holes formed and grew early .
Observations show that quasars were much more frequent when the Universe was younger .
This was , therefore , the first discovery that a supermassive black hole exists in the center of the Milky Way .
Scientists are confident that almost all galaxies , including the Milky Way , have supermassive black holes at their centers .
The origin of supermassive black holes remains an open field of research .
However , there appears to be a gap between stellar-mass black holes , and supermassive black holes .
Such a gap would suggest qualitatively different formation processes .
Such a gap would suggest that the two types were formed by different processes .
