Could a Black Hole Split in Two? The Physics of an Impossible Event
Show notes
Could a black hole ever split in two? New theoretical research suggests that rapidly spinning black holes may have a surprising loophole in the laws of thermodynamics.
The calculations reveal an extraordinary possibility involving extreme rotation, unusual event horizon shapes, and the limits of our understanding of gravity. But could this strange mathematical scenario ever happen in the real universe?
