چکیده
We analyze the statistical mechanics of a gas of neutral and charged black holes. The microcanonical ensemble is the only possible approach to this system, and the equilibrium configuration is the one for which most of the energy is carried by a single black hole. Schwarzschild black holes are found to obey the statistical bootstrap condition. In all cases, the microcanonical temperature is identical to the Hawking temperature of the most massive black hole in the gas. U(1) charges in general break the bootstrap property. The problems of black hole decay and of quantum coherence are also addressed.

Non-local (α ′) corrections to Schwarzschild black holes are shown to invalidate the thermodynamical interpretation of black holes. In particular, the canonical and Bekenstein-Hawking temperatures are not equal. The particle number density of fields quantized in the (α ′ modified) black hole background is no longer thermal. In the non-perturbative region α ′ → ∞ (or M → 0), an analytic continua...

We argue that black p-branes will occur in the collision of D0-branes at Planckian energies. This extents the Amati, Ciafaloni and Veneziano and 't Hooft conjecture that black holes occur in the collision of two light particles at Planckian energies. We discuss a possible scenario for such a process by using colliding plane gravitational waves. D-branes in the presence of black holes are discus...

The microcanonical treatment of black holes as opposed to the canonical formulation is reviewed and some major differences are displayed. In particular the decay rates are compared in the two different pictures.

If TeV-scale gravity describes nature, black holes will be produced in particle accelerators, perhaps even with impressive rates at the Large Hadron Collider. Their decays, largely via the Hawking process, will be spectacular. Black holes also would be produced in cosmic ray collisions with our atmosphere, and their showers may be observable. Such a scenario means the end of our quest to unders...
