>'Angry girl' breaks record
奈良美智畫作拍出1.9億
Japanese artist Yoshitomo Nara is best known for portraits that repeatedly depict a young girl with piercing eyes, set against a blank and pristine background.
日本藝術(shù)家奈良美智因在空白樸素背景下重復(fù)創(chuàng)作一名眼神犀利的小女孩的肖像畫而出名。
The girl looks directly at the viewer, sometimes wearing a pure smile and other times casting a hostile glance, and seems to question the world of adults.
畫中小女孩直視觀眾，有時面帶純潔微笑，其他時候的眼神則充滿敵意，仿佛在質(zhì)疑成人世界。
"Knife Behind Back", an acrylic painting on canvas that Nara created in 2000, sold for HK$196 million on Sunday during Sotheby's sales in Hong Kong.
6日，奈良美智2000年在畫布上創(chuàng)作的亞克力畫作《背后藏刀》在香港蘇富比拍賣會上以1.96億港元成交。
The price made Nara's work the most expensive by a living Japanese artist.
這一成交價使得奈良的作品成為日本在世藝術(shù)家創(chuàng)作的最貴畫作。
The painting, measuring 2.34 meters by 2.08 meters, shows the angry-looking young girl who appears in Nara's work, rendered in a standing posture to one side, with her right arm behind her body while her left arm is visible, conveying an atmosphere mixed with stillness and tension.
在奈良這幅大小為2.34x2.08米的畫作中，小女孩眼神憤怒，呈傾斜站立姿勢，左手清晰可見，右手隱藏于身后，凝造出靜謐緊張的氛圍。

>Black hole shredding star
黑洞'吞噬'恒星畫面曝光
The US space agency NASA's planet-hunting Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has observed the rarely-seen aftermath of a star that was violently ripped apart by a supermassive black hole.
美國國家航空航天局的行星探測器——凌日系外行星勘測衛(wèi)星"苔絲"日前捕捉到一個超大質(zhì)量的黑洞暴烈撕裂一顆行星的罕見畫面。
The study published in Astrophysical Journal described the tidal disruption event, named ASASSN-19bt, about 375 million light-years away.
該研究發(fā)表在《天文物理期刊》上，描述了這個被命名為"ASASSN-19bt"、發(fā)生在大約距地球3.75億光年外的"潮汐破壞"事件。
The event tends to occur when a star gets too close to a supermassive black hole and the black hole's forces overwhelm the star's gravity and tear it to shreds.
當(dāng)一顆恒星離一個超大質(zhì)量黑洞太近，且黑洞的力量遠(yuǎn)大于恒星重力時，恒星便被撕成碎片，這時通常會發(fā)生"潮汐破壞"事件。
Some of its material gets flung out into space and the rest falls back into the black hole, forming an accretion disk of hot, bright gas as it is consumed.
恒星的部分物質(zhì)會被拋入太空，其余物質(zhì)則落入黑洞。隨著恒星被吞噬，會形成一個由又熱又亮氣體組成的吸積盤。
Astronomers estimated the supermassive black hole that generated the event weighs about 6 million times the sun's mass. It sits in the center of a galaxy in the constellation Volans. The destroyed star may have been similar in size to the sun.
天文學(xué)家估計，引發(fā)本次事件的黑洞質(zhì)量約為太陽質(zhì)量的600萬倍，位于飛魚座星系的中心，而被毀滅的恒星大小可能與太陽類似。
Tidal disruptions occur once every 10,000 to 100,000 years in a galaxy the size of Milky Way.
每1萬到10萬年"潮汐破壞"才會在和銀河系大小一樣的星系中發(fā)生1次。
