Scientist Claims Feathered Black Hole Explains Hawking's Paradox

Scientists say they have solved one of the greatest paradoxes in science, first identified by Prof. Stephen Hawking. He emphasized that black holes behave in ways that contradict two fundamental theories.

A black hole is a lifeless star that has collapsed and has such strong gravity that not even light can escape. New study lawsuits to have solved the paradox by showing black holes have a property they call "quantum hair." "Problem solved!" 

At the heart of the paradox is a problem that threatens to undermine two of the most influential theories in physics. Einstein's theory of general relativity says that information about what goes into a black hole can't get out, but quantum mechanics says it can't. On the other hand, Prof Kalmet and his colleagues say they have shown that stellar constituents leave traces in the black hole's gravitational field.

Scientists have dubbed the footprints "quantum hairs" because their theory replaces an earlier idea called the "hairless theorem" developed in the 1960s by Professor John Archibald Wheeler of Princeton University in New Jersey. Prof. Wheeler coined the name because it provides a mathematical description of a black hole: an entity with mass, rotation, and charge, but otherwise no other physical properties, naked if you will.

Theorem "yes to hair" Prof. Kalmet, published in the journal Physical Review Letters, was revolutionary. He claims to have solved Hawking's paradox, which has deeply troubled physicists since his discovery in the 1970s. The contradictions have raised the possibility that quantum mechanics or general relativity is wrong, presenting a daunting prospect for theoretical physicists because they are the twin pillars on which much of our understanding of the universe is based.
