    Singularities, Density, and the Planck Length

    Whether or not the Planck length is relevant to any particular theory is irrelevant; I'm describing here how the Planck length is relevant to reality: in particular how the Planck length restriction prevents the possibility of singularities or infinite densities

    Singularities, Density, and the Planck Length

    Since the Planck length is the smallest possible length that an object can have and all measurements of length are relative to the Planck length (is is the smallest distance at which Nature itself can distinguish two objects as being discrete). Since density is equal to mass/area, and neither...

    Well it cannot collapse into a singularity at all because the smallest length that any object can have is the Planck length. This restriction also prevents infinite density.

    Singularities, Density, and the Planck Length

    It is generally accepted that a star of sufficient mass collapsing in on itself will form a black hole (singularity) where density is infinite. I see a few problems arising with this, and I would like to have them clarified. 1.) Density=mass/area If the mass of any star is finite, how can an...
