Hi all, to begin this is my understanding of hawking radiation. A particle/anti-particle pair is generated. one particle outside the event horizon of a black hole, the other inside. The gravitational force "boosts" the one particle into being real. this energy is compensated for by endowing negative energy to the one particle-evaporating the black hole. my question is what if a pair is produced within the event horizon and the pair is separated due to the tidal forces of the black hole? Thanks in advance, sorry if I was not clear enough.
