Primordial black holes (PBHs), which are thought to have formed right after the Big Bang, may be heating up and exploding ...

Black hole quantum effects are usually thought to be too small to have any observable signatures. This is indeed the case for ...

For half a century, astrophysicists have been trying to solve the Black Hole Information Paradox—first explained by Stephen ...

OK, that was a little click-baity, but then again, so was the announcement this week that a scientist had confirmed Hawking radiation with a lab-grown black hole. It sure got our attention ...

After decades of study, scientists sound genuinely optimistic about the possibility of detecting primordial black holes, which might explain dark matter.

a concept known as Hawking radiation. Information from the black hole might be able to escape via this route, but it might be in a chaotic, useless form.

As black holes slowly vanish through Hawking radiation, their information may be preserved in subtle space-time ripples, a new theory suggests. Nothing is supposed to escape a black hole's event ...

And scientists have yet to find evidence for this; black holes do not seem to release thermal radiation, meaning that Hawking radiation may not be detectable. Some scientists are trying to get a ...

The Hawking temperature of a black hole is typically well below the cosmic background radiation, so it is unlikely to ever be observed. However, Ulf Leonhardt and colleagues at the University of ...
