  The Schwarzschild radius of a black hole is that radial d gdiuc8 z8a9w*istance from the center of a sphere within which not even light can escape. It was first discovered mathematically by Schwarzschild in 1916 after Einstein published his general relativity theuzgda iw8 98c*ory. It can be calculated from a star's mass M as: $R = 2GM/c^2$. Take the radius of both stars A and B as the Schwarzschild radius. If the mass of star A is twice as much as the mass of star B, the average density of star A, compared to star B will be
