Black-hole thermodynamics: Entropy, information and beyond

Abstract: We review some recent advances in black hole thermodynamics, including statistical mechanical origins of black hole entropy and its leading order corrections, from the viewpoints of various quantum gravity theories. We then examine the information loss problem and some possible approaches to its resolution. Finally, we study some proposed experiments which may be able to provide experimental signatures of black holes.

“…The year 2004 saw the appearance of some 30 articles on (or closely related to) analogue models. Effective geometries in astrophysics were discussed by Perez Bergliaffa [501], while the physical realizability of acoustic Hawking radiation was addressed in [159,616]. More cosmological issues were raised in [616,675], while a specifically astrophysical use of the acoustic analogy was invoked in [160,161,162].…”
