Black Hole Wars, Episode 2: Susskind Strikes Back

Welcome to Black Hole Wars, part of the 2021 Cambridge Festival!
This series brings together world experts in black hole astrophysics to explore one very important topic -- the information paradox. If black holes really destroy everything that falls in, then they will also destroy information -- which, unfortunately, violates one of the most important principles in modern physics. The quest to finally understand black holes will take us beyond the laws of physics as we know them.
This second episode dives deeper into the meaning of entropy, and discusses whether holograms might hold the key to the black hole information paradox.
Starring Dr. Amr Ahmadain, Goncalo Regado, and Roger Belsunce.
For physics students looking for a more detailed and technical discussion, we recommend Prof. Suvrat Raju’s course on the Black Hole Information paradox: www.suvratraju....
