The second is a bit more nuanced. According to Hawking's area theorem, a black hole's area should only be able to increase ...

Can a black hole die? The Hawking radiation process says yes, although it could take up to googol years to disappear.

Researchers have found that the universe around us is decaying far more quickly than we thought, thanks to Hawking radiation, the idea that black holes "evaporate" over time due to the quirks of ...

Hawking radiation, a theoretical prediction arising from the interplay between quantum mechanics and general relativity, posits that black holes emit thermal radiation due to quantum effects near the ...

The universe is decaying much faster than thought. This is shown by calculations of three Dutch scientists on the so-called Hawking radiation. They calculate that the last stellar remnants take about ...

New research suggests that black holes may actually be "frozen stars," bizarre quantum objects that lack a singularity and an event horizon, potentially solving some of the biggest paradoxes in black ...

An artistic impression of a neutron star that is 'evaporating' slowly via Hawking-like radiation. According to a study slated to be published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, the ...

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

Primordial black holes may be exploding throughout the universe. If we can catch them in the act, it could pave the way to new physics, a study suggests. When you purchase through links on our site, ...
