does anybody know if there's been any follow up on this experiment. It is pretty significant.

No, I don't think so. The two are mutually exclusive.

hooray for calculus

If you're not familiar with Bell's inequality, and the subsequent experiment, I suggest perusing over http://www.upscale.utoronto.ca/GeneralInterest/Harrison/BellsTheorem/BellsTheorem.html" But essentially, an experiment is done with counting the number of electrons with certain spins, and...

I doubt the radiation is in the form of photons I don't think there's such thing as a photon/anti-photon pair

I think to assert that there would still be motion at absolute zero is a contradiction in terms. The concept of absolute zero is that the atom has zero thermal energy. Thermal energy is essentially equivalent to kinetic energy. No kinetic energy means no movement (rotational, vibrational...

That seems like a bit of a cop out explanation. It's almost just saying "the anti particle can't exist outside of the event horizon, because it's just not aloud" The fundamental process, according to my understanding, is as simple as one crossing the event horizon, and the other not. The process...

I'm having trouble understanding why it is necessary for there to be a particle antiparticle pair formation in order for the black hole to evaporate. According to my understanding of the theory, a particle anti particle pair are formed, and rather than colliding within a given period of time...
