During black hole thermal radiation can mass be radiated while entropy stays? Is it possible that entropy stays in the singularity?
Black hole evaporation is a process proposed by physicist Stephen Hawking in which black holes slowly lose mass over time due to quantum effects. This occurs through the emission of particles, known as Hawking radiation, from the event horizon of the black hole.
Black hole evaporation occurs through the phenomenon of Hawking radiation, which is caused by the quantum effects near the event horizon of a black hole. This radiation allows the black hole to gradually lose mass over time until it eventually evaporates completely.
The Hawking temperature is the temperature at which a black hole would radiate thermal energy due to Hawking radiation. It is inversely proportional to the mass of the black hole, meaning smaller black holes have a higher Hawking temperature and emit more radiation.
Yes, according to Hawking's theory, black holes can eventually completely evaporate over a very long period of time. This process is believed to take trillions of years for a black hole with the mass of our sun. However, smaller black holes would evaporate much faster.
This is still a topic of debate among scientists. According to the theory of black hole evaporation, information is not lost and is encoded in the Hawking radiation. However, some physicists believe that the information may be permanently lost, going against the principle of information conservation in physics.
