Black hole thermodynamics
In
physics
,
black hole thermodynamics
is the area of study that seeks to reconcile the
laws of thermodynamics
with the existence of
black hole
event horizons
. As the study of the
statistical mechanics
of
black body radiation
led to the advent of the theory of
quantum mechanics
, the effort to understand the statistical mechanics of black holes has had a deep impact upon the understanding of
quantum gravity
, leading to the formulation of the
holographic principle
.
