  2. Firewall (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewall_(physics)

    A black hole firewall is a hypothetical phenomenon where an observer falling into a black hole encounters high-energy quanta at (or near) the event horizon.The "firewall" phenomenon was proposed in 2012 by physicists Ahmed Almheiri, Donald Marolf, Joseph Polchinski, and James Sully [1] as a possible solution to an apparent inconsistency in black hole complementarity.

  3. Black hole information paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_information_paradox

    The firewall proposal can be thought of as a variant of the fuzzball proposal that posits that the black-hole interior is replaced by a firewall rather than a fuzzball. Operationally, the difference between the fuzzball and the firewall proposals has to do with whether an observer crossing the horizon of the black hole encounters high-energy ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewall

    Firewall (physics), a hypothetical phenomenon where a freely falling observer spontaneously burns up at the horizon of a black hole; Firewall (politics), also known as cordon sanitaire: the refusal of one or more political parties to cooperate with certain other political parties. For example, see Firewall against the far-right in Germany

  6. Black hole (networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_(networking)

    A null route or black hole route is a network route (routing table entry) that goes nowhere. Matching packets are dropped (ignored) rather than forwarded, acting as a kind of very limited firewall. The act of using null routes is often called blackhole filtering. The rest of this article deals with null routing in the Internet Protocol (IP).

  7. Event horizon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_horizon

    In 1958, David Finkelstein used general relativity to introduce a stricter definition of a local black hole event horizon as a boundary beyond which events of any kind cannot affect an outside observer, leading to information and firewall paradoxes, encouraging the re-examination of the concept of local event horizons and the notion of black ...

  8. ER = EPR - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ER_=_EPR

    This is a conjectured resolution to the AMPS firewall paradox. Whether or not there is a firewall depends upon what is thrown into the other distant black hole. However, as the firewall lies inside the event horizon, no external superluminal signalling would be possible.
