Abstract

The statistical mechanical calculation of the thermodynamical properties of nonrotating isolated horizons are studied in the loop quantum gravity framework. By employing the Hawking temperature and horizon mass of isolated horizons as physical inputs, the microcanonical ensemble associated with the system are well established. As a result, the black hole entropy and other thermodynamical quantities can be computed and are consistent with well-known Hawking's semiclassical analysis. Moreover, the value of the Immirzi parameter of loop quantum gravity for the higher-dimensional case and four-dimensional U(1) case are also obtained.
