New idea could solve black hole mystery

msn.com     May 15, 2008            

What happens to stuff that falls in? But, and this was a big but that Hawking proposed, any information that went into the black hole would be lost. "Information only appears to be lost because we have been looking at a restricted part of the true quantum-mechanical space-time," said Penn State's... [read full story]

Physicists Demonstrate How Information Can Escape From Black Holes

physorg.com     May 14, 2008          

Physicists at Penn State have provided a mechanism by which information can be recovered from black holes, those regions of space where gravity is so strong that, according to Einstein's theory of general relativity, not even light can escape. The team's findings pave the way toward ending a...

Physicists Demonstrate How Information Can Escape From Black Holes

clipped by: Silkweaverclipper's remarks: Hawking's idea was generally accepted by physicists until the late 1990s, when many began to doubt the assertion. Even Hawking himself renounced the idea in 2004. Yet no one, until now, has been able to provide a plausible mechanism for how information...

New Theory Could Explain the Information Paradox

softpedia.com     May 15, 2008          

In the 1970s Stephen Hawking showed that singularities, and therefore black holes, can exist in our space-time continuum. He also revealed that although black holes radiate mass and energy in the surrounding medium through the event horizon, information falling into a black hole would be lost...

Are Black Holes Two-Way Streets?

sciencemag.org     May 16, 2008          

By Phil Berardelli ScienceNOW Daily News Black holes are just about the least friendly places in the universe. According to Einstein's theory of general relativity, they're so powerful that they warp space and time, and they've condensed so much matter and energy into a tiny point called a...

Black Holes Don’t Trap Information Forever

kizo.com     May 16, 2008          

sciencehabit writes "New calculations suggest that black holes are not a one-way street. Anything that falls into them may eventually come out. The findings lend important support to quantum gravity, but fly in the face of Einsteinian relativity. They also support Stephen Hawking's reluctant...
