| Black hole 'quantum hair' might solve a decades-old scientific paradox Black holes have long been problematic for physicists — the general theory of relativity suggests information never comes out of them, but quantum mechanics wouldn't allow that to happen. There might finally be an explanation that satisfies both camps, however. Researchers speaking to BBC News claim to have resolved the paradox with a theorem that black holes have "quantum hair," or imprints in their gravitational fields left by components of the stars that formed them. This lets the information that went in also come out without violating either relativity or quantum mechanics. https://www.engadget.com/black-hole-...0.html?src=rss |
