Undergrad Can Black Holes Have Equal Spin and Behave as Indistinguishable Fermions?

Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around the properties of black holes, particularly whether Kerr or Newman black holes with equal spins can behave as indistinguishable fermions. It highlights that black holes have a continuous distribution of rest mass and can absorb various forms of energy, complicating their classification under quantum mechanics. Theoretical aspects of black holes, such as Hawking radiation and gravitational lensing, are examined, but the conversation emphasizes the lack of a quantum theory of gravity to fully understand these phenomena. Participants also explore the implications of color charge and quark behavior in relation to black holes, noting the challenges in reconciling classical and quantum models. Ultimately, the conversation underscores the complexities of black hole physics and the need for further theoretical advancements.

Ultrarelativistic in which frame? Confinement does not depend on the speed of protons.

it has to depend on the energy or temperature, if the QGP can exist...

Energy in the center of mass frame, sure. An isolated proton is never a quark-gluon-plasma, no matter how fast it is relative to you. Why should your reference frame matter at all? It is arbitrary.
