Stephen Hawking's black hole laws just got a major upgrade

Physicists have proposed an updated approach to black hole thermodynamics that accounts for black holes that are changing over time rather than remaining in equilibrium. This new method provides a more accurate way to measure entropy as black holes form, merge, and evaporate.
Scientists have proposed a new way to describe black holes that could overcome a major limitation in one of Stephen Hawking's most influential ideas. The research introduces an updated approach to black hole thermodynamics that works even when black holes are changing over time, potentially offering new insights into how they form, merge, and slowly evaporate.
