Stephen Hawking solved the question of mysterious black holes?

Stephen Hawking may have found a solution to one of the most complicated questions of physics - the “information paradox”.

Einstein’s theory of general relativity insists that all information about the physical properties of a material that has flown into a black hole will be destroyed, but the postulates of quantum mechanics say that it is eternal. This is the familiar paradox.

Hawking, working with Malcolm Perry at the University of Cambridge, and a staff member at Harvard University Andrew Stromberg, came up with a very real solution: all the quantum-mechanical information about the falling particles is not relevant inside the black hole.

Stephen Hawking during a conversation on August 25 at the Hawking radiation conference that takes place at the Royal Swedish Institute of Technology, Stockholm, stated that most likely all the information that flies into black hole is not stored inside it, but on event horizon.

Information is stored as a two-dimensional hologram on the border. Its scientific name is "super translation". But you cannot use it to backup your hard drive. "Information about the incoming particle is returned, but its form is already useless and chaotic," said Hawking. "The practical use of such information is lost forever."

In addition, during a lecture on Monday evening in Stockholm, Hawking discussed black holes, the gravitational pull of which is so huge that even streams of light could not escape after the passage of the event horizon.

"It is likely that black holes can be real passages to other dimensions," he said.

"The hole should be huge, and if we add to this rotation around the axis, it can become a passage to another Universe. You can’t go back then," said Hawking at a lecture at the Royal Institute of Technology. "Although I am interested in space flights, I do not intend to try."
