Talk:Black hole/Archive 4

The gravitational field is so strong that the escape velocity past its event horizon exceeds the speed of light. This implies that nothing, not even light, inside the event horizon can escape its gravity. It is, however, theorized that wormholes can let one exit a black hole. In 1784, John Michell realized that gravity could attract light and form "dark stars". Michell ideas were published by Pierre Simon Laplace in first editions of an astronomy guide. In 1795, Laplace defined the requirements for a black hole. Einstein's general theory of relativity describes gravity as a curvature of spacetime caused by the presence of matter. If the curvature is fairly weak, Newton's laws of gravity can explain most of what is observed. For example, the regular motions of the planets. Very massive or dense objects generate much stronger gravity. The most compact objects imaginable are predicted by General Relativity to have such strong gravity that nothing, not even light, can escape their grip. The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is a telescope in orbit around the Earth. Its position outside the Earth‘s atmosphere allows it to take sharp optical images of very faint objects, and since its launch in 1990, it has become one of the most important telescopes in the history of astronomy. It has been responsible for many ground-breaking observations and has helped astronomers achieve a better understanding of many fundamental problems in astrophysics. Hubble's Ultra Deep Field is the deepest (most sensitive) astronomical optical image ever taken. The Chandra X-ray Observatory is part of NASA’s fleet of “Great Observatories” along with the Hubble Space Telescope, the Spitzer Space Telescope Telescope and the now deorbited Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. Chandra allows scientists from around the world to obtain unprecedented X-ray images of exotic environments to help understand the structure and evolution of the universe. Already surpassing its ﬁve-year life, NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory is rewriting textbooks and helping advance technology.

1064:, which shows a black hole against a star field background. While I initially had some of the same concerns you did, after looking at it carefully it seems the picture is correct. What's happening is two things. First, intuition ends up giving the wrong answer for what gravitational lensing looks like. Consider a light path drawn from us that passes out into space far from the hole. It isn't deflected significantly, and what we see on that path is the same as what we'd see if the hole wasn't there. As we move the path towards the hole, though, the hole bends the path. A change in our viewing angle by some amount X results in an outbound ray that's deflected by more than X. This means that in a relatively small region of our view, we see more of the background than we'd expect to -- in other words, the background is compressed radially, which is exactly what's shown in the picture. 680:

first order it acts like only the matter beneath it, not above it, exists). If it was created in a lab on Earth's surface, it would follow a not-really-elliptical path that had it matched with Earth's rotation at its highest point. If it impacted from space, it would pass through Earth, be deflected a bit, and go right back out into space again (capture would actually be pretty difficult in this case). If it orbits inside Earth for a while, it'll eventually absorb enough mass (over seconds-to-billions-of-years) to have slowed down relative to Earth, and orbit inside it until the final collapse. Regarding neutron stars, they would indeed collapse extremely quickly, as they are extremely dense (the hole would encounter a lot of matter that it could absorb very quickly, and the final collapse would proceed at accelerations of hundreds of thousands to millions of gravities). --

900:

parameters of distance(time is still relative and unimportant) so that triangulations can be determined allowing a realistic picture of where we live. in time and repetition more and more of our universal world will become visible, telling us how big our space is. black holes are fun because they might be the keylock pieces to our space if they are massable eventhough the notion of superdense mass, mounting, and maybe stationary in our collective movement, is something. so... a better, truer? understanding of the relation, the relativity of our space as we get to know it might allow some visions of the shape of those areas of black hole meaning traceable wormholes- that last was a bit far however, the blackhole mass could be the structure of a tube if multiple outlets could be found. maybe superdense singularities exist

1910:, and somewhere between 2/3 and 4/5 of all bad edits are made by anons. Such studies directly challenge the claim that overall anon edits are a good thing. I haven't seen any attempt to study directly the claim that substantially fewer individuals would become Wikipedians if anon edits were disallowed, but I doubt this is true. Even if it were true, as some claim, that anon edits were neccessary until WP "took off", I strongly suspect that WP editing is now known to a "critical mass" of the global pool of potential editors to easy/fun, that with their friends and friends of friends "spreading the word", it is unlikely that disallowing anon edits would cut off the influx of "new blood". --- 627:. He wrote another, later story called "The Borderland of Sol" that featured a micro black hole under other conditions. A small black hole would actually probably eat the sun more quickly than it would eat Earth, as the sun's core is much denser. The early stages of absorption are the ones that most affect the total time, and the denser the hole's environment, the more interactions per second, and the more quickly it grows. As for time frame, this is extremely sensitive to the size of the hole. It would span all the way from "happens in milliseconds" to "takes time comparable to the age of the universe". The long-term limit depends on the lower bound to the mass of the hole, as limited by 235:

intervals averaging once per N seconds. However, if I set all of the coins initially to heads (a state with low entropy), I observe the system as a whole to evolve in a time-dependent manner (going forwards in time, the entropy increases, and I get a system with a mixture of heads and tails). Running the film backwards shows the opposite (the mixture sorts itself out into an all-heads configuration). Only when entropy is near its maximum does the arrow of time disappear (when the coins are a roughly even mixture of heads and tails, running the film in either direction shows it random-walking around this region of state space). This is discussed a bit at

1944:

motivated sufficiently to do this, probably wouldn't put in the effort to make useful contributions either. Also, as CH points out, you have to weigh any good edits that you assume you wouldn't get with anons banned against good edits that you lose from regular editors because we're too busy mopping up dreck to make them. That's one of the reasons I haven't contributed to this article in a while (some of the valid additions need vetting, but I'm not going to crawl through the history to find them all). In short, I find this argument for anonymous edits providing a net gain to this article to be unconvincing. --

1016:, but even there you are confused: of course time does not "slow to standstill" anywhere in any spacetime; rather, radio signals from a static test particle suspended (say on a long and very strong but neglible mass string) just outside the event horizon will be extremely redshifted when received by static observers far from the hole; this does not imply that time has "slowed" for the suspended particle, just that outgoing null geodesics diverge due to the spacetime curvature outside the hole (or indeed any massive object), 568:

a change in flow patterns if the shell was somewhere in or under the mantle. How long it would take for the heat within the crust and mantle to dissipate (and stop volcanic activity) depends on where the shell is built. Either way, it would be very obvious very quickly that the shell was present (no more seismic waves passing through the core, or mantle, or what-have-you). A shell like this would be many orders of magnitude stronger than any presently-known material, including nanotubes.

574:

the rest of the planet (while inside Earth's roughly spherical shell, it wouldn't feel much gravity from Earth's mass, but outside it would. The bits of crust would all be in orbit around each other and the hole, and the end result would probably be a hole with most of Earth's mass surrounded by a debris ring. How long it would take the hole to drift off-centre depends on a number of parameters and assumptions, so I'm not even going to try to hand-wave it for now.

207:

black hole from information that had never entered the black hole (i.e. motions imparted on other objects by forces from that object (gravity, electromagnetism, collisions, etc.)? The object itself would be irretrevable, but wouldn't the legacy it left with the rest of the universe be plain to see? My second question is as to why the assumption is made that the Laws of Physics are the same in either direction. Doesn't the 2nd law of thermodynamics violate this?

631:. The smallest hole of interest would still have to have a lifetime of billions of years. Anything smaller would be shining brightly enough to interfere with matter around it and muck up calculations further. The important thing is that a black hole's interaction cross-section, and so the rate at which its mass increases, goes up as the square of its mass (or faster, once you take "gravitational focusing" of trajectories into account). This gives 278:. It seemed odd that information would be destroyed in this manner, as information appears to be conserved in most other processes that we know about (it's intimately tied to entropy and thermodynamics in ways that I'm sketchy about). The short version is that the entropy of a system can be thought of as being its information content. This made black hole evaporation via Hawking radiation seem to be a violation of the laws of thermodynamics. -- 31: 1028:: half true; in general, gtr fails to model what happens to matter which encounters a curvature singularity, but not all singularities which (according to gtr) might be found deep inside black holes are "crushing"; the ones inside the simplest gtr models of black holes are, but the Poisson-Israel model includes the possibility that a particle falling into the interior will encounter a Cauchy horizon rather than a crushing singularity. 1056:

appearing... sort of the opposite to how it appears in that picture - in the picture it looks like light is being bent away from the black hole instead of toward it, and the images are pushed outwards, if you will, instead of sucked inward. Does anyone understand what I'm saying, and can anyone confirm or deny this picture's accuracy? Thanks. - 61.9.204.168, 22nd April, 2006 (Big Pond, Telstra TPP, Australia)

1070:

picture isn't). The pink ring in the image is the angle from the hole at which light paths from us are focused on a single point in the background (i.e., are deflected enough to make them perpendicular to the page, heading into the page). Inside the ring, paths are warped even more, giving a reversed image of the entire starfield, including parts that don't show in the periphery of the picture.

636:

eating. As a rule of thumb, you can assume that the final collapse of stars, planets, and so forth happens at the speed at which their surface material would freely fall into a point object with the star or planet's mass. While the material is still far from the hole, this won't be blindingly fast (one gravity for Earth, hundreds to thousands for a middle-sized star). --

1775:, if memory serves), an article has to be very frequently vandalized for it to be applied (20/day wasn't enough last time). In my opinion the most productive approach to solving the vandalism problem would be to push for a "vandalism edit count vs. non-vandalism edit count" criterion to be included in the semiprotection page making it easier to get it granted. -- 215:

scenarios where this applies too, but would have to doublecheck with the lurking physicists to be sure. You can easily construct scenarios where the information is stored in a classical manner, but can't be observed or inferred due to the fact that the particles carrying information are exchanged as discrete quanta, but this is a different type of situation.

2044:

claim? Which is, as I understand it, that disallowing anon edits would discourage such a large number of anon contributors from continuing to make good edits that their loss would outweigh the benefit gained by eliminating at one stroke the biggest source of bad edits which need to be carefully reverted by the so-called Army of Eyes.---

2135:, black holes are described by only three independent properties: mass, electric charge, and angular momentum. It turns out that it does make sense to assign a "temperature" to a black hole, but that temperature is inversely proportional to its mass, and for normal-sized black holes it's very cold, a tiny fraction of a 2020:

argument is totally academic; the probability that this article will be semi-protected is just about zero. Semi-protection is (by policy) for articles which are unreadable because they're constantly vandalized, not for articles whose regular editors are inconvenienced by having to revert vandalism. --

1929:

about physics make valuable edits, and that profs or other high-level experts who don't want to get accounts aren't going to do it just because we disable anonymous editing. I also note that even if there are ten bad anonymous edits for one good anonymous edit, the ten bad edits will be reverted and

1248:

As for your question, I think the same thing that happens when any other objects get near each other... They will orbit each other, and one may fall into the other, adding its mass to it. Black holes aren't really all that special, it's just that they're very compact... Basically, they do the same

987:

theory is capable of accurately modeling black hole interiors, and indeed most physicists expect that general relativity should be perfectly capable of modeling the region not to far inside the horizon (a fringe minority dispute this, as do many cranks); however, it is widely expected that gtr should

725:

IIRC, it means that it is no longer pulling in large amounts of matter and spewing it out in jets. I've paid more attention to Linguistics than Astronomy over the past couple years though, and my beloved old Astronomy textbook is in pieces. "No longer active" doesn't say so much about the hole itself

635:

growth, meaning that almost all of the hole's devouring happens at the very end of the time it takes to eat something. The approximation breaks down when the hole is big enough that a) bulk material can simply fall into it, and b) its mass becomes comparable to or greater than that of the object it's

509:

CH notes an important point. A more accurate way of describing things would be to say that in the collapse of a star sufficiently massive, the compacted core of neutron-degenerate matter that forms during collapse quickly becomes heavier than the TOV limit, at which point it collapses, and all of the

1966:. I have no idea if this anon would get an account if that page were sprotected, or what his reasons might be for not registering. He has not responded to several requests on his talk page that he do so. Certainly I will admit that such anonymous editors are the exception, rather than the rule. - 1884:

edit a page, and then becomes a contributor, then it was worth it to Knowledge. There are hundreds of people whose sole contribution to the site is reverting anonymous vandalism, and it is (in their opnion, and mine) worth that effort to keep our contributor base growing. That's why semi-protection

1756:

On balance, I think this is more evidence that anon edits should be banned, since the harm they do tends to outweight the good some anons do. One thing which becomes clear when you start to look into this is that it only takes a small number of repeat offenders to really mess things up for users of

567:

If a rigid shell was built under the Earth's crust, and everything inside replaced with a hole of equal mass, we'd notice immediately from the way seismic waves propagated. We'd notice within months that continental drift had stopped (if the shell was right under the crust), or longer that there was

1075:

Lastly, paths that pass close enough to the hole are warped in a way that sends them into the horizon. This makes the hole's horizon appear larger than we would measure it to be by feeding a cable with measuring devices down towards it. A black hole of 10 solar masses would have a diameter of about

1069:

The second thing that's happening is that the simulated picture is from a viewpoint very close to the hole. As light paths get very close to the hole, they aren't just deflected, but can wrap around the hole and be sent back to us (or wrap around farther if the hole is spinning, but the hole in the

944:

In the spirit of Knowledge, I suppose we should not discourage new editors, but at the same time, it seems fair to ask that newbies avoid creating an account and posting their debut WP edit while (apparently) in a state of extreme intoxication. Since I'm picturing Rob as a underaged drinker, one

573:

Even if a shell was built, you'd need active station-keeping mechanisms to hold the hole in place. Otherwise any small perturbation off-centre would wind up being amplified, and the hole would drift ever more quickly off towards the crust. When it got close, it would probably eventually eat most of

315:

A black hole is the escape speed that would have to be met to escape from the pull of gravity exerted upon an object. The existence of black holes in the universe is well supported by astronomical observation, particularly from studying X-ray emission from X-ray binaries and active galactic nuclei.

234:

To show how this works, consider a situation where you had several coins on a table, and flipped a random coin to a random state once a second. The behavior of any given coin is the same whether you look at things forward or backward in time: the coin's state changes to a random new state at random

206:

Couldn't information on what had gone into a black hole be derived from the rest of the universe. I.e., until an object crosses the event horizon, it will be interacting with the rest of the universe? So assuming you knew enough about the rest of the universe, couldn't you deduce what had entered a

2171:

Hmm, thanks for the Info. What I meant when I sayed that It would be superheated was that Given what I proposed the photons would have been transformed to Heat whist being trapped by the mass of the black hole, and since nothing can escape it's gravitational force, then there would'v been lot's of

2054:

I suppose you're mostly correct about the value of anon contributors, though I think it would be completely impossible to change policy on this. There is an enormous amount of inertia to radical change in policy, and I expect the policy will require a large stimulus to change, say a big lawsuit.

1996:

anons seem to be doing good work (I agree). I have also pointed out from time to time good anon edits. In fact, this is so rare that when I see them I often take the time to add an "attaboy" in a anon talk page. I have probably spotted 5 good anon edits in random articles during my time at WP.

1920:

I do not dispute for a minute that most anon edits are bad, or that most bad edits are by anons—this makes sense since users who decide they like editing and want to do so seriously will tend to get accounts, but it doesn't disprove my point in any way. Obviously there's no way to prove I'm right

561:

If the black hole was just put there, they'd notice when the planet disappeared from under them. How long this takes depends on how massive the hole is. I'd have to handwave interaction cross-section numbers to see how long it would take a hole with a radius smaller than an atom to eat the planet.

548:

How long before the inhabitants of the planet/observation base notice that "summat odd" was happening to the planet, and what would they observe? Transmission of seismographic waves/earthquake activity across the diameter of the planet would be affected (as minding the gap) - but when? And at what

2065:

How could I forget? I continue to insist that continuing to allow anon edits will be the downfall of the Knowledge, and I find it not unlikely that this will come due to the site being raided or the servers confiscated due to gross misuse by anon editors. I'd much rather see the policy changed

679:

The micro-hole would pass through Earth as if it wasn't there, as it is vastly more massive than the amount of matter in the channel it's carving. It would behave as if in orbit around Earth's centre of mass, though the amount of matter influencing it varies (as Earth is roughly spherical, to the

We're going to need to cite alternate references, many of the ones in this article are permanently gone. As and when I find them, I'll edit them in, but that's relying on my memory. We also have two References sections. Or did have. I'm renaming the former to "Citations", since that's what it is.

As for the apparent conflict between thermodynamics and time symmetry, it turns out that this isn't actually a conflict. The second law of thermodynamics describes the behavior of systems of particles - the way the average statistics of the system will evolve over time. The laws of physics govern

I still don't think that most of the good edits would be lost by banning anon edits from this article. Anyone who's motivated enough to put in a significant amount of time improving an article will be motivated enough to take the 30 seconds to register a login and password. The people who aren't

1840:

Any anon who is sincere about contributing to Knowledge would be willing to get an account under which to edit. It doesn't even require an email address nowadays. Thus, even supposing substantial useful edits from anonymous contributors, I don't see how blocking anons would stop those users from

214:

From a quantum mechanical point of view, it's fairly easy to end up with information contained in the object that can't be derived from its history or inferred from its effect on the rest of the universe until the object is explicitly probed for it. I'm pretty sure that you can conduct classical

1118:. In this theory, we take account of the fact that very near the horizon, null geodesics coming in from "infinity" can wrap around arbitrarily often before escaping again to "infinity". (Some null geodesics, of course, plunge into the hole, but many of those which graze the limb of the sphere 2019:

The dark disk is not the event horizon. Roughly speaking, it can can be thought of as the image of the 1055:

The manipulated picture that supposedly represents the appearance of a black hole... seems to me perhaps to be incorrect? Maybe I'm just stupid, but I couldn't find discussion on this picture in the discussion page, so I'm raising it here. It's just that I intuitively imagine a black hole as

I generally agree that it probably deserves its own article since it appears so often in science fiction, etc. I think what you did will work as a good start and nicely blends nominal theory with the reality of its use in fiction. At this point, I'm apt to let it stand and gather.

is potentially misleading (no Newtonian limit puns, please!) since a black hole won't tug any harder than any other object with the same mass, it is just more compact, which means you can get close enough to experience (in a stellar mass hole) some rather large tidal forces.

Of the twenty possibly distinct anons, six made useful edits and the other fourteen were vandals, often apparently sitting in a junior high school computer lab. One of these was an anon who was clearly trying to push a dissident point of view in violation of

My gut feeling, actually, is that "quantum singularity" is a common enough term in fiction that it deserves its own article. I cleaned up the article and added an intro that relates the term to real physics as far as is warranted, and moved it to

My understanding is that photons were the most common thing produced, but that all particle/antiparticle pairs with masses that are lower than the energy corresponding to the hole's temperature are produced.
