Is black hole elementary particle?

In summary, black holes are not similar to elementary particles as they do not follow the same conservation laws and are non-linear field equation solutions in a curved space-time. There is also no evidence to suggest that cosmological black hole production can be compared to cosmological particle production.

After suggestion to search for black holes at LHC one can ask how much
black hole is similar to the elementary particle?

Can we apply second quantization to the field of black holes?

Can we talk, for instance, about cosmological black holes production in analogy with
cosmological particle production?

No, a BH, even the smallest, is not an elementary particle. It is a non-linear filed equation solution in a curved space-time where no additive conservation laws exist, unlike elementary particle theory in a flat (Minkowski) space-time. Although there are heavy objects in the Universe, it is not necessarily that they are BHs.
 

Related to Is black hole elementary particle?

1. What is an elementary particle?

An elementary particle is a tiny, indivisible particle that cannot be broken down into smaller components. These particles are the building blocks of matter and are the fundamental objects that make up the universe. Examples of elementary particles include electrons, quarks, and neutrinos.

2. How are black holes related to elementary particles?

Black holes are not considered elementary particles, as they are not fundamental objects and can be broken down into smaller components. However, black holes are thought to be made up of elementary particles, such as protons and neutrons, that have been compressed to an extremely small size.

3. Can black holes be considered as elementary particles?

No, black holes cannot be considered as elementary particles. While they may be made up of elementary particles, they themselves are not considered fundamental objects and can be broken down into smaller components.

4. Are there any connections between black holes and the Standard Model of particle physics?

There are no direct connections between black holes and the Standard Model of particle physics. However, the Standard Model does provide a framework for understanding the behavior of elementary particles, which may help in studying the particles that make up black holes.

5. How do scientists study the particles inside black holes?

Currently, it is not possible for scientists to directly study the particles inside black holes. This is because the immense gravitational pull of a black hole prevents anything, including light, from escaping. Scientists can only study the effects of black holes on their surroundings and make predictions based on mathematical models and theories.
