Why is the black hole entropy (almost) linear in the horizon area?

Gilad Gour, Avraham E. Mayo

We show that essentially pure classical thermodynamics is sufficient to determine Bekenstein's formula for the black hole's entropy, $S = η A$ . We base our reasoning on the minimal as…

Can one increase the luminosity of a Schwarzschild black hole?

Avraham E. Mayo

We illustrate how Hawking's radiance from a Schwarzschild black hole is modified by the electrostatic self-interaction of the emitted charged particles. A W.K.B approximation shows…
