|  Black-Hole (Equilibrium) Thermodynamics | 
In General > s.a. laws of black-hole thermodynamics;
  black-hole entropy and radiation; 2D
  gravity; horizons [including local temperature].
  * Idea: The laws of black-hole
    mechanics have a thermodynamical interpretation if we identify the entropy as
    S ~ A/4 and the temperature
TH = \(\hbar\)κ/2πck , (= \(\hbar c^3/8\pi GMk\) for a Schwarzschild black hole, or (d−3)\(\hbar\)c/4πkrS in d dimensions) ,
    where κ is the classically calculated surface gravity of the
    black hole; TH is negligible
    for M ~ MSun.
  * Development: Black-hole thermodynamics
    started as a formal analogy between the laws of black-hole dynamics and those of thermodynamics;
    1973, Real black-hole thermodynamics initially seemed like a crazy idea, because classically S
    = ∞ and T = 0, until Hawking discovered the concept of black-hole radiation.
  * Equilibrium: Only non-rotating,
    neutral black holes can be in (unstable) equilibrium with thermal radiation;
    > s.a. perturbations [stability].
