The random disorder of subatomic particles – their entropy – might be the key to solving a long-standing puzzle about how black holes lose information. This proposal could help unite gravity and quantum mechanics.
“Quantum gravity nowadays is really far beyond our limits,” says at the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics in Golm, Germany. “But I think black holes are a good arena to test it.”
Black holes are both a blessing and a curse to researchers because their huge…
