The discoverer of the first exoplanet speaks to EL PAÍS about the next big breakthrough he hopes to see: the first planet with life outside the solar system
Well, I have worked with Kerr and Schwarzschild black holes in the past but only for looking at stable orbits around them and not accounting for evaporation.
Yeah, I know that it takes a few billion years for a black hole to evaporate or to a dwarf to finally die. So what? It’s simple thermodynamics, you don’t even need to know how any celestial body behaves at all, the universe dies for the same reason your coffee cools down.
