Black Holes and the Event Horizon !
What kind of information can one extract from Stephen Hawkins new discovery. I was inspired after reading this article. This short excerpt of the text will lead into my text.
The General Theory of Relativity predicts that the physical information about the material that fell into the black hole would be destroyed. The laws of quantum mechanics, however tell us that shouldn't be the case as information is eternal. Stephen Hawking, in collaboration with Malcolm Perry of the University of Cambridge in England and Andrew Stromberg of Harvard University has come up with a plausible explanation. "The quantum-mechanical information about infalling particles doesn't actually make it inside the black hole." The information remains at the event horizon. Hawking reasons, however that although information is stored at the boundary in two-dimensional holograms, this information is considerably scrambled and lost because of the chaotic and ambiguous way the information was stored.

I'd like to start with the question what do Hawking and his Colleags mean when they say the information is stored at the boundary in 2-Dimensional hologram? This is confusing. A Hologram is always 3-Dimensional. A 2-Dimensional Matrix is always 2-Dimensional. Are they trying to say that 3-Dimensional space doesn’t exist on the surface of the Event-Horizon, but it must, because it is apart of our Universe. Beyond the Event Horizon, in the Black Hole there maybe not be a classical 4-Dimensional Space-Time.
The funny things about Black Holes (BH) is that they can grow in size (Change in Diameter), and if they loose Energy by evaporation or by some other way, they shrink in their Diameter. I suspect the Physicist are talking about the Event Horizon. Stars circling a BH like the ones at the center of our Galaxy have different orbits and do not just circle in the plain of the BH. This suggest Gravity is acting in 3-D all around the BH and not just in 2-D. If space were to be bent in such a way as to have a flat Event Horizon then we would be speaking of a Plain as the basis of our discussion.
My next point is the Planck Length . This seems to be the smallest length possible which is described in Physics. It's value 1.616 X 10 to the -35 meters. It is the base unit for Planck Units which incorporate 5 physical constants which represent our knowledge of space, time and matter. To give you an impression how small this unit is, imagine this. The Nucleus of Atoms consist of different number of Protons and Neutrons depending on the Atom which then again has Electrons orbiting its core. Each Proton and Neutron again is made up of 3 Quarks which are only stable in pairs or triplets like in the Nucleus Particles of the Atom. Here it is now, the size of the Quark to the Planck Length is proportional to the size of the observable Universe to the Quark size. This Planck Length is just unimaginably small. There seems to be lots of room between these scales for things to happen which are not jet observable. String Theory tries to occupy this space with some interesting approaches.
So lets try to put this into perspective with what Stephen Hawking and his collaborators Malcolm Perry and Andrew Stromberg are saying. They were discussing that information being stored on the 2-Dimensional Hologram of the Event Horizon never enters the BH. The smallest hologram must be on this Planck scale expressed as a 2-D Matrix. Now this Matrix can not be a flat circle if I am right, it hast to be a sphere in order to explain the centric gravitational pull on stars orbiting the Black Hole like in our Galactic center. If the 2-Dimensional hologram were a flat disk, then the Gravitational pull is equal in all directions along the plain but not above or below it. The Star orbits would be much more complicated then when e.g. orbiting from north to south or vise-verse. With the disk model you only have a very small degree of stable orbits along the plain.
Lets take this thought a bit farther. Hawking also says, the Black Hole is what is beyond the Event Horizon, standard thinking. It definitely is the barrier between our space-time, field-particle world and the BH, because information is not lost but possible just differently stored on the Event Horizon. This implies the surface area increases as the Black Hole sucks in more mass. It also implies that the surface area to sphere volume is proportionate to one another obviously. Those with mathematical knowledge know how to write this down.
The next mental step is to find out if the mass of the whole Black Hole equals the mass of the 2-Dimensional Planck Unit Hologram of the matrix sphere, here the Event Horizon surrounding the Black Hole, or is it less, which I would tip on. Why, I suspect that the BH below the Event Horizon from which no one knows anything about, also has a mass. The Black Hole must have a mass and the Event Horizon has also its mass. The mass of the Event Horizon equals the mass of the Stars and Mater it sucks in. The mass of the Event Horizon can not fall into the Black Hole except in theoretical diagrams, the matter stays put on the surface of the Event Horizon Hawking says. Therefore the combined mass of both bodies is equal to the gravitational pull on object which orbit the system. Physicists know, how much vacuum energy per Planck unit exist. If one could measure the exact diameter of the Black Hole which is also equal to the Event Horizon one could calculate the exact relationship between the two systems. Maybe the recently observed mergers of the two Black Holes last September 2015 can help us out with this problem. I do not know if Astronomers can measure the diameter of a BH from the Acoustic signals we were recording hear on Earth, but it would be nice if one could.

If this were to be true, that we are confronted with combined masses, then the mass which might be actually in the Black Hole, is mass ( or energy, E = mc squared ) without space-time confinement, nor has it field-particle elements, it must be very cold and at the same time it is not a part of the Universe that we describe in Physics. But this Energy is still confined below the Event Horizon plain. It also contributes to the gravitational pull, Gravity transcends everything. This line of thinking brings me to the next Point. I will start off like this, what should we possibly call this stuff? Maybeeeee … Dark Energy. Sounds familiar.
Dark Energy has negative pressure but also keeps its gravitational property, no mass no pressure. This is what makes it possible that the Event Horizon can form a perfect sphere, otherwise it would become in stable, the Event Horizon. If there is pressure, there must be some thing there, therefore also gravitation. If the spheres from Black Holes looked instead like some kind of potatoes or like the comet which the Europeans landed a satellite on not to long ago, then the orbitals of objects around the B.H. would show different paths which are not bin observed in reality. Unsymmetrical Event Horizon would probably some how dissipate. I haven't given much thought to this problem jet. Something else might also happen.
Anyway, can we if the above thoughts are applied say something about the geometry of the Universe and maybe draw some kind of conclusion about the properties of Dark Energy. Lets try it.
In a steady state vacuum, particles spontaneously come into existence and dissipate back into the vacuum again. Some of these particles are quarks which repulse from one another because of the same charge they carry. Quarks can't be stable alone they evaporate again. Flex-tubes are structures that bind quarks together and that is how quarks overcome the same charge repulsion. Physicists have calculated that there is a force equal to 18 tons pulling between the quarks and bind them together. Some Physicists also talk about Gluons that bind quarks together which I will come to in a momment. These flex-tubes have, like the word suggest a tube like geometry. They have a certain depth and not more, width and a maximum length. If stretched out more they then sap apart and the open ends bind to another quark. The most stable form seems to be triangular. Three quarks, either two up quarks and one down quark or the opposite bind with three flex-tubes and create a proton or neutron. The picture looks some what different with Gluons. There seems to be very many of them like some kind of cloud binding the quarks together. I like the flex-tube picture better and here is why. Can it be that these flex-tubes are like micro-rips in the space-time continuum. These rips occur just in short range distances, corresponding to the distance between two quarks and when stretched more, divide and bind to other near by quarks.

Next. These flex-tubes seem to have a lot in common with the Black Holes beyond the Event Horizon. Very high energy density, equal to large mass corresponding to a vigorous binding force. The BH binds the 2-D hologram matrix to it, just like flex-tubs bind the quarks together. Lets try and spin this idea farther. If the Higgs field permeates throughout the Universe as suggested, but we find areas within our Universe that are distinguished from it like in Black Holes or flex-tubes, which seem like rips in the Higgs field, then matter cannot exist there because the 3-Dimensional Higgs field is not present.
We might have an answer why the Universe is expanding faster the last 4 ½ to 5 Billion years then before this time. If, and this is a Big IF, the 3-Dimensional Higgs Field Matrix has boundaries, which seems to be implied here, then outside of this Higgs field boundary there might be this substance that we have bin speculating about. If this were so, it must have a specific large volume surrounding our Higgs filled Universe that is pulling the Universe toward it, from our perspective pushing the Universe outward. It might be mathematically possible to calculate how the proportions must be so that we can observe this sudden acceleration that are being measured.
One last thought to this subject. If the volume of this space-timeless substance is infinite, would it instantly rip our Universe apart. If so and we are still hear observing the Universe, we might of answered the question that the Universe is not infinite but extremely large. One might even suggest it works like a type of recycling process which takes place over large periods of time. We call it Entropy. Entropy swings between 1 and zero and closes the circle of beginning and end.
Taking the chance that I'm completely wrong, I hope you could still enjoy the excursion of my thoughts. Physics is not my learned trade, just for full disclosure. I enjoy this field of Physics very much though.
Reality is no one has any clue about Black Holes. Simply we are morons to think we can even fathom the energies coursing around a Black Hole. The first cave man was impressed by fire I would think but he would not have any inkling of exactly what was occurring as he watched the flames.
Black Holes have been around for something like 50 years and while Astronomers have greatly increased their knowledge base I find it highly unlikely quantum mathematics or whatever a cosmologist decides to use to quantify a black hole is simply unproveable for the next few millennium at least . . .
And, I simply love Black Holes I find them immensely fascinating and I am very very happy there are none nearby. They are certainly never going to be on my travel itinerary ! ! !
You are right, it is a fascinating subject what happens between the Event Horizon and the Black Hole. Thanks for your comment.
That's not Steven Hawking's theory. The theory tgat the information remains on the event horizon was developed by professor Yaakov Bekenstein.
Thank you for updating me on that fact. I didn't know.
Do you really understand what you are talking about? Your speech looks very confused (and sometimes wrong) to me...
