Black Holes
A review of the theory and history of black holes. |
Black Holes
We review the observational evidence for black holes, and briefly discuss some of their properties. We also describe some recent developments involving cosmic censorship and the statistical origin of black hole entropy |
Black Holes and Beyond
A brief description of Black Holes for the layman |
Black Holes and Mysteries of the Cosmos
Everything you wanted to know about Black Holes and Mysteries of the Cosmos, but were afraid to ask! |
Black Holes and Naked Singularities
This article gives an elementary review of gravitational collapse and the cosmic censorship hypothesis. Known models of collapse resulting in the formation of black holes and naked singularities are summarized. |
Black Holes made Simple
An overview of modern research in black holes without the use of mathematical equations. |
Cambridge Relativity - Black Holes
An overview of black holes and information on current research from Cambridge |
Do Black Holes Exist ?
Science popularization article on black holes. |
Do Black Holes Exist in our Universe?
Theory of black hole formation, observational effects and black hole candidates. Articles on 9 sub-topics. Part of the curriculum of the astronomy students of the Rijksuniversteit Groningen, Netherlands. |
FAQ to SCI.PHYSICS on Black Holes
An FAQ list by Matt McIrvin containing basic questions and answers related to black holes. |
General Relativity and Black Holes
A set of notes on aspects of black holes. |
Geometry Around Black Holes
An exhibition on relativistic computer dynamics used to present the theory of black holes. |
Gravitational Redshift
An overview of the effects on light in the presence of a black hole. |
Hawking Radiation
Classically, black holes are black. Quantum mechanically, black holes radiate, with a radiation known as Hawking radiation, after the British physicist Stephen Hawking who first proposed it. |
Higher Dimensional Chern-Simons Theories and Topological Black Holes
It has been recently pointed out that black holes of constant curvature with a "chronological singularity" can be constructed in any spacetime dimension. In this paper, a brief summary of these new black holes is given. |
Introduction to Black Hole Microscopy
The aim of these notes is both to review the standard understanding of the Hawking effect. The fundamentals of the Unruh effect are reviewed, and then the Hawking effect is explained as a ``gravitational Unruh effect". |
Modern Research by Eduard Westra
Research done about low mass black holes. On the level of 2nd year astronomy students. |
Quantum Geometry and Black Holes
Non-perturbative quantum general relativity provides a possible framework to analyze issues related to black hole thermodynamics from a fundamental perspective. |
Schwarzschild Geometry
The Schwarzschild geometry describes the spacetime geometry of empty space surrounding any spherical mass. |
Stringy Black Holes
A set of lecture notes with a very good section on black holes, as well as current work in string theory. |
