shepherd Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Can someone explain the four laws of black hole thermodynamics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajb Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 An account can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_thermodynamics I may be able to suggest more technical accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shepherd Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 Can someone explain the statement, As the surface of the star is composed of ordinary matter, it must move along a time-like trajectory, sandwiched between inward directed and outward directed light surfaces, ?

ajb Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 You will need to learn a little of the terminology of special and general relativity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrRocket Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 An account can be found here: http://en.wikipedia...._thermodynamics I may be able to suggest more technical accounts. Wald -- Quantum Field Theory on Surved Spacetime and Black Hole Thermodynamics Best of luck to the OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnStu Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Everything they know about Black Holes are mostly theories, they have not been confirmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrRocket Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 My copy arrived yesterday. Just noticed my typo. I trust that your copy is Quanatum Field Theory on Curved Spacetime and Black Hole Thermodynamics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Tripolation Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) Just noticed my typo. I trust that your copy is Quanatum Field Theory on Curved Spacetime and Black Hole Thermodynamics. Even better, maybe he got Quanatum Field Theory on Curved Spacetime and Black Hole Thermodynamics.

DrRocket Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Even better, maybe he got Quanatum Field Theory on Curved Spacetime and Black Hole Thermodynamics. The right title is in there somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
