Violation of the second law on spacelike slices inside black holes
نویسنده
چکیده
We show that the entropy created by Ohmic dissipation inside an accreting charged black hole may exceed the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy by a large factor. The second law of thermodynamics does not hold on spacelike slices inside these model black holes, even when the slices avoid Planck scale densities and curvatures. This result is distinct from, but consistent with, the fact that there is no entropy bound for spacelike surfaces. Lightlike slices do obey an entropy bound, and in the model black holes, lightlike slices also obey the second law.

Internal structure of non - Abelian black holes and nature of singularity 1
Recent results concerning the internal structure of static sphericallysymmetric non-Abelian black holes in the Einstein–Yang–Mills (EYM) theory and its generalizations including scalar fields are reviewed and discussed with an emphasis on the problem of a generic singularity in black holes. It is argued that in the theories admitting a violation of the naive no-hair conjecture the structure of ...
متن کاملLocality inside black holes violates the second law of thermodynamics
We show that the entropy created by Ohmic dissipation inside an accreting charged black hole may exceed the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy by a large factor. Since only the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy is released during evaporation, the black hole appears to destroy entropy. To avoid this startling result, the interior of the black hole must contain a proliferation of complementary causal patches — ...
متن کاملBlack hole versus cosmological horizon entropy
The generalized second law of thermodynamics states that entropy always increases when all event horizons are attributed with an entropy proportional to their area. We test the generalized second law by investigating the change in entropy when dust, radiation and black holes cross a cosmological event horizon. We generalize for flat, open and closed Friedmann–Robertson–Walker universes by using...
متن کاملBlack Holes and the Third Law of Thermodynamics
We discuss here in the framework of black hole thermodynamics some aspects relative to the third law in the case of black holes of the Kerr-Newman family. By means of thermodynamic arguments we show that a discontinuity in the thermodynamic manifold between extremal black holes and non-extremal ones should occur. In particular, arguments which strengthen the idea that the Bekenstein-Hawking law...
متن کاملSome remarks on black hole temperature and the second law of thermodynamics
I present a formulation of the second law of thermodynamics in the presence of black holes which makes use of the efficiency of an ideal machine extracting heat cyclically from a black hole. The Carnot coefficient is found and it is shown to be a simple function of the mass. Black holes are known to radiate energy thermally with a temperature given by a simple function of the mass of the black ...
