Primordial black holes (PBHs), which are thought to have formed right after the Big Bang, may be heating up and exploding ...

Black hole quantum effects are usually thought to be too small to have any observable signatures. This is indeed the case for ...

After decades of study, scientists sound genuinely optimistic about the possibility of detecting primordial black holes, which might explain dark matter.

For half a century, astrophysicists have been trying to solve the Black Hole Information Paradox—first explained by Stephen ...

A new underground facility called DUNE, which will accelerate particles for 800 miles between Illinois and South Dakota, ...

As black holes slowly vanish through Hawking radiation, their information may be preserved in subtle space-time ripples, a new theory suggests. Nothing is supposed to escape a black hole's event ...

Today, the entropy of a black hole is called Bekenstein-Hawking entropy, but the radiation emitted from a black hole is called Hawking-Bekenstein radiation, or often just Hawking radiation.

And scientists have yet to find evidence for this; black holes do not seem to release thermal radiation, meaning that Hawking radiation may not be detectable. Some scientists are trying to get a ...

He also discovered that black holes leak energy and fade to nothing - a phenomenon that would later become known as Hawking radiation. Through his work with mathematician Sir Roger Penrose he ...

In 1976, Stephen Hawking rocked the astrophysics world with his discovery that black holes aren't entirely black. Instead, they emit tiny amounts of radiation and, given enough time, can give off ...
