SUMMARY
When a black hole dies, it undergoes a process known as evaporation, primarily through Hawking Radiation, which results in the black hole emitting energy and ultimately disappearing without revealing any information about its interior. The process involves the creation of particle-antiparticle pairs, where one particle escapes while the other is absorbed by the black hole. As the black hole loses mass, it can eventually reach a point below the Chandrasekhar Limit, leading to a violent end characterized by a rapid release of energy, potentially resulting in a naked singularity. The discussion highlights the theoretical implications of black hole evaporation and its relationship to the universe's structure and fate.
