... . However, this result shows that the temperature of a a temperature TH = 2π black hole is inversely proportional to its mass, having thus a negative specific heat. Therefore when a black hole radiates it loses its mass, it evaporates and eventually disappears, and this fact will lead us to the infor ...
Collapse of Probability Distributions in Relativistic Spacetime
... occurs along an equal-time hypersurface, say, t 0 , in whatever reference frame is being used. However, such a naïve instantaneous collapse process is inconsistent with relativity, because the equal-time hypersurfaces of different inertial reference frames are different. The attempts at implementa ...

The rigid body may be considered (we have seen this propriety in the first part of this mechanics) as a non deformable and continuous system o ...

Momentum is a physics term; it refers to the quantity of motion that an object has. A sports team which is on the move has the momentum. If an ob ...
