B Where Can I Find Math for Black Hole Firewalls?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the search for mathematical foundations related to black hole firewalls, a theoretical concept suggesting that high-energy quanta exist at the event horizon of black holes. The original poster expresses difficulty in finding relevant mathematical resources and seeks guidance on where to locate this information. The concept of a black hole firewall involves the breaking of entanglement between particles, potentially releasing immense energy. A brief explanation is provided, referencing Wikipedia for further details. The conversation highlights the complexity and intrigue surrounding black hole physics.

Hello :)
Before I get to my topic I want to adress that I am new to this website and wish to apologize if my thread is incorrectly placed.

I am interested in black holes and lately I have been trying to find some math which lays the basis for a black hole firewall. Sadly I haven't been able to find what I am looking for and I was wondering if somebody could tell me where to find this.

Again, I am pretty sure my thread is incorrectly placed and I am really sorry about that.

Thanks for the help and I wish you a wonderful day.

What is a "black hole firewall"?

[ EDIT ] Oh.
"...a hypothetical phenomenon where an observer that falls into an old black hole encounters high-energy quanta at (or near) the event horizon.

Some scientists suggest that the entanglement [of Hawking radiation involving two mutually entangled particles] must somehow get immediately broken between the infalling particle and the outgoing particle. Breaking this entanglement would release inconceivable amounts of energy, thus creating a searing "black hole firewall" at the black hole event horizon."

Oh okey. Thank you so much :)

Cool concept, thanks for the explanation, DaveC426913. But that's an awful lot of energy... it's...

Thread 'Potential biosignature found in Mars rock'

Publication: Redox-driven mineral and organic associations in Jezero Crater, Mars Article: NASA Says Mars Rover Discovered Potential Biosignature Last Year Press conference The ~100 authors don't find a good way this could have formed without life, but also can't rule it out. Now that they have shared their findings with the larger community someone else might find an explanation - or maybe it was actually made by life.

Thread 'Does it make sense to build new radio telescopes?'

TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'

This is indirectly evidenced by a map of the distribution of gamma-ray bursts in the night sky, made in the form of an elongated globe. And also the weakening of gamma radiation by the disk and the center of the Milky Way, which leads to anisotropy in the possibilities of observing gamma-ray bursts. My line of reasoning is as follows: 1. Gamma radiation should be absorbed to some extent by dust and other components of the interstellar medium. As a result, with an extragalactic origin, fewer...
