Abstract
Abstract ‘Entropy and thermodynamics of black holes’ considers how the laws of thermodynamics and entropy can be applied to black holes. It discusses the work of Roger Penrose, James Bardeen, Brandon Carter, and Stephen Hawking, which, using quantum mechanics and quantum field theory, has enabled these scientists to propose likely behaviour in and around black holes. The concepts of black hole evaporation and Hawking radiation are explained to show how black holes lose mass and eventually disappear. It concludes with the black hole information paradox: can the information stored in the matter that fell into the black hole ever be recovered?
