The genesis and characteristics of black
holes
Marion Mikusch Physics institute, university of Graz
The contraction of a gas cloud molecules: do not have enough Ekin triggers: compressions Jeans mass and Jeans radius:
contraction Epot is released if heat is transported off collapse free falling time: protostar is born
A collapse sets in…
Different phases:
◦ hydrogen burning◦ helium burning◦ carbon, neon, oxygen, silicate burning
stage of equilibrium until fuel is depleted a new thermonuclear process starts Stars over 8 sm: also heavy elements are
built iron-nickel core is formed supernova
Stage of nucleosynthesis
neutron star: e+pn
until internal pressure prevents contraction
Star over 30 sm: unstoppable collapse a black hole is born
The unstoppable collapse
escape velocity reaches the speed of light
Schwarzschild radius: causal border
black hole with 10 sm: Rs = 29,5 km
event horizon: surface around the black hole
A black hole swallows everything…
interstellar matter approches in spiral tracks
X-ray emission
rotation space-time geometry is distorted
‘electromagnetic tornado‘
Accretion disc and matter jets
analogy between event horizon and entropy
entropy: disorder of missing information in a system
bit of information area of the event horizon
definition of entropy and temperature is possible
thermodynamical description
paradox: finite temperature emission of thermal radiation??
Quantum mechanics: uncertainty principle virtual particles can arise in pairs
they disengage for a short time and than annihilate
mass of the black hole decreases
total evaporation
Hawking radiation
Only 3 observable characteristics:
◦ mass◦ angular momentum◦ electric charge
huge information loss
but a swallowed bit is ‘saved‘ in an area of the event horizon like a hologram
3-dimensional object memorized by a 2-dimensional region
holographic principle
