Description

During the last decade the physics of black holes has been revolutionized by developments that grew out of Jacob Bekenstein s realization that black holes have entropy. Stephen Hawking raised profound issues concerning the lack of information in black hole evaporation and the consistency of quantum mechanics in a world with gravity. For two decades these questions at a loss for words theoretical physicists and in the end led to a revolution in the way we take into consideration space, time, matter and information. This revolution has culminated in a remarkable principle referred to as The Holographic Principle , which is now a huge center of attention of attention in gravitational research, quantum field theory and elementary particle physics. Leonard Susskind, some of the co-inventors of the Holographic Principle in addition to some of the founders of String theory, develops and explains these concepts.
