Black holes at accelerators

Abstract

This is my contribution to the proceedings of Stephen Hawking's 60th birthday celebration. If the ideas of TeV scale gravity are correct, then black holes should be produced at accelerators that probe the TeV scale, and their decays should evidence one of Stephen's greatest discoveries, the phenomenon of black hole radiance.
