    He seems to perfectly blend the mind-boggling complexity of his subject matter, with an ease and flow of delivery that makes it come across as comprehensively understandable at an engaging and relatable level.

      Think of it as an apology from the Royals of England to your and any other country who had to endure their reign earlier in history. Also, you have the internet, the most powerful tool in history for learning, if you want it to be. Good to see that you have an interest in the basic fundamentals of everything, it's an extremely good character trait in my eyes. Schooling does count for something, but the basic human trait of curiosity is so much more important.

      WTF at times it was a utterly incomprehensible USELESS explanation & nobody knew WTF he was talking about eg:
      47:47 _"In a black hole, the 2-dimensional event horizon really does contain all the information you need, to talk about what's happening inside, according to the holographic principle. But it should be true even in this room, or the galaxy or the universe. & if that is true, locality is being dramatically violated, because there is a lot less that can possibly happen in this room than you thought could. You thought that something could be happening here & something could be happening there & different things could be happening at every point. But the holographic principle says: No, that's not true. 1 of the arguments for it, is if you imagine all of the different possible things that could happen most of them would have a lot of energy & would collapse to make a black hole. So there is an upper limit on the number of things that could happen in this room, & the size of the upper limit is proportional to the area of the walls around this room. So there is this hypothesis that all of physics really lives in a world that is 1 dimension lower than the world we actually see. & again, we are trying to make sense of this idea. We are making progress, but we are not completely there yet."_
      _"The other idea that has come out of Black holes and argues against locality is called Black hole complementarity. Remember I said that, from the point of view of Bob from far away, he sees radiation coming out of the Black hole, and he says: well if I trace it backwards, it must have been very high energy radiation when it left the event horizon. Whereas Alice, in the conventional way of thinking about things, passes through the event horizon & sees nothing there, just empty space. So they had incompatible ways of describing the same situation. Bob thinks the event horizon is bubbling with high-energy radiation; Alice says there's nothing there. Black hole complementarity says: they are both correct. Black hole complementarity says they are different-sounding ways of giving equivalent descriptions of the same fundamental underlying reality, & that 2 things that are seen by 2 observers can look very very different, as long as the observers can never get together to compare notes. So what happens is, if you give Bob enough time to collect the Hawking radiation, & figure out what he thinks the horizon looks like, & you give Alice enough time to fall into the horizon. If Bob then says: alright, I've got some data; I know what's coming out of the Black hole. I am going to fly into the Black hole & tell Alice what I saw. It is too late. She has been spaghettified & crushed into the singularity. So these 2 observers see a very different thing happening in the world, but hey can never talk about it. Only we - God-like physicists, looking at the whole thing from afar, can give the bird's eye view on everything that is going on. That is the principle of Black hole complementarity. It's borrowed from the early days of quantum mechanics when Niels Bohr pointed out that you are allowed to measure position, OR you are allowed to measure velocity. You are not allowed to measure both at the same time. That was quantum complementarity; this is Black hole complementarity. So again, it's a violation of locality in some sense. It says that the right way to describe the world isn't what's happening here, & what's happening there, & what's happening there, and what's happening there, separately. What's happening right there can depend in a very dramatic way on who's looking at it & from what perspective. So somehow, all the information about what's going on in the world is not simply located in individual points in space. It's encoded in some cryptic way that we don't yet understand, & that's what we are trying to get at, by doing these thought experiments. The problem is, these 2 types of non-locality, don't seem to be enough to solve the firewall puzzle."_

    I could listen to you all day, Sean. Thank you for all your talks. I get them off youtube. I watch many academic lectures in physics to better grasp these concepts of the nature of black holes & the reality of space-time. I only have a BA in music, but I do understand acoustic physics. So, I do have some foundation; just not a very strong one. I can't help but be excited about this stuff. It's what I do for entertainment, instead of TV & that nonsense.

    First, I would like to say that having these kinds of lectures available on the internet is something that fills me with such a sense of pride in the human race that is refreshing. Thank you so much for this gift.
    Second, I would like to point out a small correction. In the talk, Sean Carrol states the unfortunate link between the term "firewall" in this context and in computer science. Well, actually, the analogy is EXACTLY what happens in a computer firewall, except with a twist. The way a firewall works is it's a "membrane" any information wanting to pass from one network to another as to go through.
    The default behavior is that any information is stopped. How is information stopped? It is "destroyed". This is the membrane acting "as nature intended". Destroying information is something we do all the time in computer science. How do we do it? We make heat. That's one of the reasons why your computer gets warm.
    The twist is the trick to computer science. We get to cheat and decide what information is allowed to pass, basically by deciding to look at it instead of dissipating it. That's what makes it a very useful thing to protect "my precious universe" from the big bad things on the other side of the firewall.

      Not to be pedantic, but... Actually the packets that DO get through generate more heat than the rejected packets. All packets are equal before inspection. Dropped packets simply cease to be, but allowed packets have to be reassembled and forwarded to their destination, which requires more energy to transmit on down the line as either electricity or light.

So the particles falling in have negative energy. I don't think enough time was spent on this oddity.Does that mean the firewall is comprised of negative energy? And how do particles with negative energy behave? And what happens when they interact with particles with positive energy? And can particles have negative energy inside a black hole but not outside?

    46:38 is it not the case that volume and outside surface area would necessarily increase proportionally? Not sure I understand why the distinction about increasing entropy being dependent on the (2D) area of the event horizon as opposed to the volume of its interior is so important. Could anyone clarify?

    So, the first audience question is exactly what I wondered since ever, and I have the feeling Sam's answer is not addressing the problem. He says that Bob cannot see Alice anymore at some point and therefore Bob cannot exclude that Alice has not passed the horizon. But, we do not need visual evidence to know this. The equations of GR tell us that time dilation becomes infinite from the perspective of an outside observer, and so we can conclude that Alice never passes the horizon (from Bob's point of view). In fact, Bob can conclude (by calculation) that the BH must evaporate before Alice falls through the horizon. And this is the point that he does not address.
    He always shift to "but Alice sees ..." and "Alice' point of view is relevant". But this is completely irrelevant to the question. The question is what an outside observer must conclude about the fate of Alice.

    • @aerialexplorer772
      @aerialexplorer772 3 роки тому +1

      I'm no expert, but maybe the answer has to do with the uncertainty surrounding quantum mechanics. That the amount of time it takes for the black hole to evaporate can be calculated, but this is only an average, and it could be much quicker or much slower depending on the roll of the dice. Crucially that there is an infinitesimal probability that it will take an infinite amount of time to evaporate. Therefore you can never say categorically that the black hole has evaporated before Alice has fallen in.
      Secondly that the photons reflected from Alice as she falls in will rapidly become very dim and infrequent - and perhaps these become merged with those emitted by the hawking radiation? Maybe if you shine more light on Alice as she falls in, this will allow you to see her better, but this also adds mass to the black hole, delaying the time of occurrence of evaporation.

    Could the near infinite mass inside the event horizon disrupt particle interactions with the Higgs field, making them massless and allowing them to escape as Hawking radiation?
    Once outside the event horizon they start interacting to regain mass, giving the impression the black hole is losing mass, and the mass acquired by the black hole is compression of the Higgs field?
    Arttu Rajantie, a theoretical physicist at Imperial College London, revealed that when space-time is greatly curved, the Higgs boson increases in mass.
    Could black holes be made up of Higgs boson's and everything else escapes as Hawking radiation?

  • @mauricio14junior
    @mauricio14junior 10 років тому +5

    Well, I'm not actually a physicist, only an enthusiast. Maybe that's the reason I haven't quite understood the contradiction between the Hawking's radiation principle with the integrity of information.
    I mean, why is there a contradiction? Why information was considered lost by Hawking if the same information that falls into the black hole would eventually evaporated out from it as radiation?

    • @mauricio14junior
      @mauricio14junior 10 років тому +3

      Oners82 Well. Since I've posted this comment/question I've been studying and reading about these black holes paradoxes. I realized that actually the black hole evaporates not because it irradiates the matter that falls into ir, but because there is anti particles created from the virtual particles separation that happens at the event horizon. So what comes out of it actually comes out of the event horizon and not from inside. If I am right, that answer my question. So in fact, what is coming out of the black hole is not actually coming from inside. It's just the positive particle from the virtual particle that was created at the event horizon. Actually no information is coming out it, and that information that falls into like dust, meteors, etc., is being neutralized by antimatter created at the event horizon. So in fact, by this point of view information would really be lost.

    • @mauricio14junior
      @mauricio14junior 10 років тому

      Oners82 If the pair production is the process by which they evaporate, technically the information that comes out is not coming from the black hole. So how can he evaporate if not by the annihilation of matter inside it? I mean, the radiation that is coming out comes from the event horizon, not from inside, right?

    • @mauricio14junior
      @mauricio14junior 10 років тому

      Oners82 Or does the meteor that falls into the black hole is radiated out?

    • @mauricio14junior
      @mauricio14junior 10 років тому

      Oners82 I suppose there are two events regarding information falling into the black hole. First is the negative pair particles created at the event horizon which negative ones fall into. Second one is about the matter that comes from the space such as meteors, dust, stars and so on. These seems to me quite different events. If you consider the quantum entanglement principle to be preserved and use black hole complementarity to solve it, that would be OK with particles that are entangled. But a meteor is not entangled, is it?

    • @mauricio14junior
      @mauricio14junior 10 років тому

      Oners82
      Well, I understood. Actually I kinda understood the whole point of my question (which was my idea that information would be lost through the contact with negative particles into the BH) on your first answer when you said that when positive and negative matter collide they release energy, so it enlightened my mind on how my thoughts about the hole process was wrong. Thanks for your consideration. I really am. Sorry for my dumbness :-)
      I'm sorry. I haven't made my self clear. This would be a second question.
      Actually this comparison I've made before, which may seem really stupid, in my mind has some sort of a sense. I've made this comparison because along Sean's lecture he talked about how it would feels like for someone to fall into a black hole. First he says that according to no drama principle (classical thought), a person would feel nothing at the no return point (event horizon). After this, he speaks about the Firewall concept, that Alice would be shred to pieces right at the event horizon. After that he proposes complementarity principle as a solution to this deadlock. Basically, the whole point of my comparison is that, his subject is considering entangled particles that would never talk to each other in such event. But what if we are talking about a non entangled particle falling. Would complementarity apply to that scenario? I mean, there wouldn't be a particle to "not talk to". Wouldn't it mess complementarity? It seems to me that complementarity, when it concerns whether a particle is shred to pieces or if it would feels nothing at the event horizon, only solves the cases with entangled particles.

    P.P.S. At 1:03:00 he is talking about the gravitational redshift of light/radio signal from Alice to Bob. But that's not at all important in this context. What is important is what HAPPENS from a certain observer's point of view. And that can always be deconvolved from light (or radio etc.) signals sent out from both parties (Bob & Alice).
    And on that matter, I'd be delighted to hear the opinion of these experts here.

    Frankly, I don't understand the statement at 35:18. (And ok, that might be only my problem.) Two entangled particles that are either "red" or "blue" when observed, represent exactly 1 bit of information, not 2 bits. That 1 bit is preserved in Bob. Alice is not needed outside the event horizon to carry that information, she is redundant. (Sorry, Alice.) So why would we need Carrie? Does Bob somehow "know" that he once was entangled with a particle that is now lost? Is being entangled a measurable property of one particle? I thought it's not. I'm sure there's a reason and the talk is correct. I just don't feel it is explained here--and it seems crucial for understanding.

  • @EzioAuditoreofmedici
    @EzioAuditoreofmedici 10 років тому

    I don't understand how information is lost in the black hole in terms of virtual particles. If the particle that goes in is entangled with the particle that escapes, don't the properties of the escaping particle that are measured give us the exact information of the particle that doesn't escape(as the entanglement causes those properties to be opposite to the ones measured). Plus surely if they come from empty space, isn't the 'total' information content 0? And for objects falling in, how would that information become encoded in the virtual particles( hawking radiation)?
    Thanks for the clarification!

    3)Bob is then entangled with Carrie that used to be entangled with Dave that was also sucked into black hole
    WAIT WHAT?!
    If Dave is in b hole => Dave is -energy => Carrie is +energy
    SO HOW CAN YOU PRESUME THAT BOB COULD BE ENTANGLED WITH CARRIE IF THEY'RE BOTH +ENERGY?

    In many discussions about black holes, there seems to be an assumption that the event horizon is a clear boarder that being the same to all observers. However this seems to be self contracting since by definition the "maximum" event horizon is the border where inside it light can't escape to infinity. However if you are closer to that horizon (but not entering it), the light inside that border can still reach you since you are not infinitely far away. However there should still be another horizon relative to your position so the light inside it can't reach you. This horizon should be inside the "maximum" horizon, and the Hawking radiation temperature should be higher than what was observed from infinity. Therefore, if getting closer and closer to the black hole the temperature should become hotter and hotter but you will never be able to "touch" the horizon until it becomes so hot that it destroys you.
    Is there anything wrong in the above thought experiment?

    I don't understand how you can have entangled particles where one particle can have positive energy and the other entangled particle has negative energy. How can a particle have negative energy? How can anything have less than zero energy? Sean said if you initially have two virtual particles just outside the event horizon that they are "ripped apart" as they reach the event horizon. In the process they are transformed into two real particles, one having positive energy (Hawking radiation) ejected outward from the event horizon and one having negative energy falling into the black hole and into the singularity. I understand the concept of conservation of energy from thermodynamics. Is it the case that the inward falling particle has a negative energy relative to the outward ejected particle's energy or that it has a negative energy relative to absolute 0 K or relative to the energy level of the surrounding vacuum space? If anyone could help me understand this it would be greatly appreciated.

      @alwaysdisputin9930 3 роки тому

      No it isn't. A lot of this video is incomprehensible. DrPhysicsA did the best video on BH.
      E.g. Carroll said this gooblegook:
      47:47 _"In a black hole, the 2-dimensional event horizon really does contain all the information you need, to talk about what's happening inside, according to the holographic principle. But it should be true even in this room, or the galaxy or the universe. & if that is true, locality is being dramatically violated, because there is a lot less that can possibly happen in this room than you thought could. You thought that something could be happening here & something could be happening there & different things could be happening at every point. But the holographic principle says: No, that's not true. 1 of the arguments for it, is if you imagine all of the different possible things that could happen most of them would have a lot of energy & would collapse to make a black hole. So there is an upper limit on the number of things that could happen in this room, & the size of the upper limit is proportional to the area of the walls around this room. So there is this hypothesis that all of physics really lives in a world that is 1 dimension lower than the world we actually see. & again, we are trying to make sense of this idea. We are making progress, but we are not completely there yet."_
      _"The other idea that has come out of Black holes and argues against locality is called Black hole complementarity. Remember I said that, from the point of view of Bob from far away, he sees radiation coming out of the Black hole, and he says: well if I trace it backwards, it must have been very high energy radiation when it left the event horizon. Whereas Alice, in the conventional way of thinking about things, passes through the event horizon & sees nothing there, just empty space. So they had incompatible ways of describing the same situation. Bob thinks the event horizon is bubbling with high-energy radiation; Alice says there's nothing there. Black hole complementarity says: they are both correct. Black hole complementarity says they are different-sounding ways of giving equivalent descriptions of the same fundamental underlying reality, & that 2 things that are seen by 2 observers can look very very different, as long as the observers can never get together to compare notes. So what happens is, if you give Bob enough time to collect the Hawking radiation, & figure out what he thinks the horizon looks like, & you give Alice enough time to fall into the horizon. If Bob then says: alright, I've got some data; I know what's coming out of the Black hole. I am going to fly into the Black hole & tell Alice what I saw. It is too late. She has been spaghettified & crushed into the singularity. So these 2 observers see a very different thing happening in the world, but hey can never talk about it. Only we - God-like physicists, looking at the whole thing from afar, can give the bird's eye view on everything that is going on. That is the principle of Black hole complementarity. It's borrowed from the early days of quantum mechanics when Niels Bohr pointed out that you are allowed to measure position, OR you are allowed to measure velocity. You are not allowed to measure both at the same time. That was quantum complementarity; this is Black hole complementarity. So again, it's a violation of locality in some sense. It says that the right way to describe the world isn't what's happening here, & what's happening there, & what's happening there, and what's happening there, separately. What's happening right there can depend in a very dramatic way on who's looking at it & from what perspective. So somehow, all the information about what's going on in the world is not simply located in individual points in space. It's encoded in some cryptic way that we don't yet understand, & that's what we are trying to get at, by doing these thought experiments. The problem is, these 2 types of non-locality, don't seem to be enough to solve the firewall puzzle."_

    I would be very grateful if someone could help me understand the following assertion:
    34:02 "Indeed any particle that escapes to infinity has a positive amount of energy, and therefore, as far as the outside observer is concerned, the infalling particle has a negative amount of energy".
    Why is that? Why couldn't the opposite randomly happen as well? I mean, the particle with positive energy falls in, and the other one escapes.

      spiras73 I had this question forever too. Shouldn’t equal amounts of particles and antiparticles fall in, canceling each other out. The answer is that the whole particle/antiparticle picture is a simplified way of stating the math. Bottom line: both particles are made “real” by the BH’s gravitational field and so, the BH must lose mass as a consequence

      According to today's video of S. Hossenfelder there is an issue with negative mass and negative energy - they very likely do not exist...
      The closest-to-reality-explanation I have ever heard was on a World Science Festival video and had to do with the different gravitational potential of the two virtual particles, but I did not get it at all, sorry.

    Firewall comes from the barrier between adjacent buildings through which utilities are allowed to move and not fire. It was later borrowed by information technologists.

    Let me be clear when i defined Information as opposed to nearly pure energy... Im talking about a specific necessary restructuring of energy (just as matter can be a state of energy) for a requisite stable structure dependent on the space time topology, at a inner event horizon (were gravity is equal to the velocity of light) Ask this does a black hole preserve the law of conservation of momentum and then what does this mean in the case of the surface at the event horizon of such a object. To say were does spin go when transforming from a 3d space onto a 2d surface.
    Ironically at 52:20 they are simply speaking of relativity on the quantum scale. I don't see how they can not see this. Too boot a 2 dimensional surface that expands as information is added can also be directly considered from some hard to imagine point of view but no less valid as a one dimensional space. Which is also no less a way to describe a expanding filament of information. Which while less applicable then a two dimensional space in the context given of being within space time. It should be considered as the velocity of both mass and light falling in approaches c and thus even vibrational inertia becomes one dimensional as dilation maximizes. As you know a forward velocity can be described in terms of distance over time which in this case becomes constant and the motion is in the direction only of what is relatively forward or backwards in relation to a extreme curvature of space time which is almost surely circular. So that most everything spoken of depends on the topology of that curvature and from that what the properties such curvature would necessarily imply which could make a scenario valid or invalid. Consider were the center of gravity of such a structure described as this 2 dimensional surface originates from for a inward falling particle... In such a scenario the entire surface structure has most likely a gravity well moving at the speed of light at that surface and locality would be warped into essentially a line across the surface that wrapped around it as it spins in that case 3 dimensional locality also becomes 2 dimensional. Which is a much wilder thought then just the energy barrier around it as you are flattened into it and widened around it. Again this is just one logical structure from a specific space time topology at a information or uniformed energy state.

    I've worked for one or two companies over the decades that, looking back, was just like jumping into a black hole. They pretty much ripped me to shreds in no time flat - toxic environments that is. Only it had a reverse effect in that it aged me, unlike a real black hole.
