Abstract

Black holes are fascinating spacetime configurations predicted by general relativity. When quantum mechanics is taken into account, blackholes are found to emit thermal radiation, called "Hawking radiation". Recently an interesting area formula for the quantum entropy of blackholes was derived. This also leads to a surprising new way to compute the  entropy of Hawking radiation. This result indicates that the blackhole formation and evaporation is consistent with standard quantum mechanical laws.
