Hawking believes that solved the information paradox of black holes

Speaking on Tuesday at a lecture at the Royal Institute of technology (Stockholm, Sweden), Stephen Hawking has announced that it may have found the solution to the information paradox the question of the inconsistency of quantum mechanics and models of the theory of General relativity, which had been troubling physicists for more than four decades.




The information paradox, who knows, associated with black holes. In General, according to this paradox, it is unclear what happens to the physical information of objects in it (black holes) fall. Model of the quantum mechanics insist that the information remains in this case unchanged. A special model of the General theory of relativity, in turn, claims that the information is actually completely destroyed under the influence of strong gravity of black holes.

Hawking has developed a third view, according to which information actually falls inside the black hole.

"I guess that information is and is not inside a black hole, as many think. It contains on the borders of black holes, i.e. the event horizon," says Hawking.Hawking believes that the information about the particles pulled into a black hole, remains on the surface of its event horizon in the form of holograms (two-dimensional images of three-dimensional objects).

"The idea is to superperiod (supertranslations) falling particles in a holographic essence", — said Hawking with the audience."These holograms store information that otherwise has been lost".Moreover, the information can "escape" from the gravitational attraction of black holes due to the so-called Hawking radiation. According to this concept the photons can sometimes be emitted from black holes due to random quantum fluctuations. These photons contain information about the event horizon, however, the benefits of this is no will.

"The information trapped in a black hole the particles are returned, however, in a chaotic and useless form. This solves the information paradox. From the point of view of usefulness in the practical use of this information is truly lost".Even if the information was not destroyed in the parallel Universe (which, according to Hawking, is indeed possible), attempt to consider it will seem like trying to read a damaged hard drive. In other words, the information is saved, but it becomes unusable.




Hawking's lecture on Tuesday was only a seed. Malcolm Perry, Professor of Cambridge Department of applied mathematics and theoretical physics, who worked with Hawking, is going to provide the details of the new theory. In addition, both experts are going next month to publish an article, fully and in detail describe the theory. published
