  2. Fuzzball (string theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuzzball_(string_theory)

    Fuzzballs are hypothetical objects in superstring theory, intended to provide a fully quantum description of the black holes predicted by general relativity.. The fuzzball hypothesis dispenses with the singularity at the heart of a black hole by positing that the entire region within the black hole's event horizon is actually an extended object: a ball of strings, which are advanced as the ...

  3. Hayden–Preskill thought experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hayden–Preskill_thought...

    The thought experiment concerning Alice and Bob is as follows: Alice throws a k qubit quantum state into a black hole that is entangled with Bob's quantum computer. Bob collects the Hawking radiation emitted by the black hole and feeds it into his quantum computer where he applies the appropriate quantum gates that will decode Alice's state.

  4. Black hole information paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_information_paradox

    In equations, Hawking showed that if one denotes the creation and annihilation operators at a frequency for a quantum field propagating in the black-hole background by and † then the expectation value of the product of these operators in the state formed by the collapse of a black hole would satisfy † = / where k is the Boltzmann constant ...

  5. Black hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole

    A black hole with the mass of a car would have a diameter of about 10 −24 m and take a nanosecond to evaporate, during which time it would briefly have a luminosity of more than 200 times that of the Sun. Lower-mass black holes are expected to evaporate even faster; for example, a black hole of mass 1 TeV/c 2 would take less than 10 −88 ...

  6. Bekenstein bound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bekenstein_bound

    According to the Bekenstein bound, the entropy of a black hole is proportional to the number of Planck areas that it would take to cover the black hole's event horizon.. In physics, the Bekenstein bound (named after Jacob Bekenstein) is an upper limit on the thermodynamic entropy S, or Shannon entropy H, that can be contained within a given finite region of space which has a finite amount of ...

  7. Rotating black hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_black_hole

    A rotating black hole is a black hole that possesses angular momentum. In particular, it rotates about one of its axes of symmetry. All celestial objects – planets, stars , galaxies, black holes – spin. [1] [2] [3] The boundaries of a Kerr black hole relevant to astrophysics. Note that there are no physical "surfaces" as such.

  8. Virtual black hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_black_hole

    It is an example of quantum foam and is the gravitational analog of the virtual electron–positron pairs found in quantum electrodynamics. Theoretical arguments suggest that virtual black holes should have mass on the order of the Planck mass, lifetime around the Planck time, and occur with a number density of approximately one per Planck ...

  9. Outline of black holes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_black_holes

    Extremal black hole – black hole with the minimal possible mass that can be compatible with a given charge and angular momentum. Black hole electron – if there were a black hole with the same mass and charge as an electron, it would share many of the properties of the electron including the magnetic moment and Compton wavelength.
