No need to cower in terror while waiting for some Gama rays on it's way to fry you


Oh p*sh. Spoilsport. I was getting all exited about being fried and was even considering going large. Not even just a teensy weensy bit of terror, pretty please?

Tell me however. I am getting more and more perplexed by what seems to be a bit of a conundrum. A black hole sooks everything in and is so strong even light cannot escape. Yet it belches? How so?


What about Hawking radiation?


Here:

Hawking Radiation:

Hawking radiation is black body radiation that is predicted to be emitted by black holes,due to quantum effects near the event horizon. It is named after the physicist Stephen Hawking, who provided a theoretical argument for its existence in 1974,[1] and sometimes also after Jacob Bekenstein, who predicted that black holes should have a finite, non-zero temperature and entropy.[


bold by me.

What about Hawking radiation?

Not confirmed to exist.


Yet.


Yup.


One question I do have is about this Hawking radiation theory?

Is it considered way out there or a possibility?

The only question I have so far regarding this thread.

It has not been shot down. It's not "way out there".

No, it's not way out there.

If we can create micro black holes, we could measure their evaporation. And thus prove the theory correct.

Well the interesting thing is that if this just happened then there is no worry due to the great distance traveled. However it also proves that this may have happened at any time in the past and those particles can therefore be traveling through space and are about to reach us at any time. :O

Wouldn't it take a long long time to reach us?



I think it's like 26000 years, so nothing to worry about really, because I reckon it will take about 13.5 million years for any charged particles to reach us.
edit on 19-12-2012 by DAZ21 because: (no reason given)


If we are seeing it now, it more than likely happened 26,000 years ago!!

Remember we are not looking at events in today's timeline......It takes time for the light to reach us!

Yes but we are not talking about light, so we are not talking about light speed.

Anything else en route as the aftermath, will travel sub light speed.
