In General > s.a. laws
of black hole thermodynamics; 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 = ![]()
/2
ck , (=
c3/8
GMk
for a Schwarzschild black hole, or
(d–3)
c/4
krS in
d dimensions) ,
where
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.
