Hello :)
Before I get to my topic I want to address 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...
