  2. Black hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole

    A black hole with the mass of a car would have a diameter of about 10 −24 m and take a nanosecond to evaporate, during which time it would briefly have a luminosity of more than 200 times that of the Sun. Lower-mass black holes are expected to evaporate even faster; for example, a black hole of mass 1 TeV/c 2 would take less than 10 −88 ...

  3. Event horizon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_horizon

    For black holes, this manifests as Hawking radiation, and the larger question of how the black hole possesses a temperature is part of the topic of black hole thermodynamics. For accelerating particles, this manifests as the Unruh effect , which causes space around the particle to appear to be filled with matter and radiation.

  4. Dark matter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_matter

    Primordial black holes as a dark matter candidate has the major advantage that it is based on a well-understood theory (General Relativity) and objects (black holes) that are already known to exist. However, producing primordial black holes requires exotic cosmic inflation or physics beyond the standard model of particle physics , [ 125 ] and ...

  5. Supermassive black hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermassive_black_hole

    Since a supermassive black hole will only be visible while it is accreting, a supermassive black hole can be nearly invisible, except in its effects on stellar orbits. This implies that either A2261-BGC has a central black hole that is accreting at a low level or has a mass rather below 10 10 M ☉. [120]

  6. Stephen Hawking may have cracked massive mystery of black holes

    www.aol.com/news/2015-08-26-stephen-hawking-may...

    Black holes look like they 'absorb' matter. Every time a star falls into a black. Stephen Hawking provided a ground-breaking solution to one of the most mysterious aspects of black holes, called ...

  7. Black hole information paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_information_paradox

    The first image (silhouette or shadow) of a black hole, taken of the supermassive black hole in M87 with the Event Horizon Telescope, released in April 2019. The black hole information paradox [1] is a paradox that appears when the predictions of quantum mechanics and general relativity are combined.

  8. Outline of black holes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_black_holes

    Extremal black holeblack hole with the minimal possible mass that can be compatible with a given charge and angular momentum. Black hole electron – if there were a black hole with the same mass and charge as an electron, it would share many of the properties of the electron including the magnetic moment and Compton wavelength.

  9. No-hair theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No-hair_theorem

    The no-hair theorem (which is a hypothesis) states that all stationary black hole solutions of the Einstein–Maxwell equations of gravitation and electromagnetism in general relativity can be completely characterized by only three independent externally observable classical parameters: mass, angular momentum, and electric charge.
