Hawking radiation
In Binary Pulse Theory: Horizon Pulse Split
BPT explains itIn standard physics
Thermal radiation a black hole gives off because of quantum effects near its horizon, so it slowly evaporates.
In Binary Pulse Theory
The pair picture of Hawking radiation is read as one pulse Tempo cut into its two Rhythms at the horizon. Each escaping half carries away at least the Landauer cost of one bit at the well's temperature.
The BPT terms behind it
The Horizon Pulse Split is a whole pulse cut in half at a Null Well's horizon: the ascending half, +1ᵇ written, escapes as the well's glow, and the descending half, −1ᵇ returned, falls in. A Null Well is what contemporary physics calls a black hole.
Horizon Bit Energy is the least energy one escaping half carries away from a Null Well: the Landauer cost k_B·T·ln 2 at the well's Hawking temperature. A Null Well is what contemporary physics calls a black hole.
The Charged Pair Threshold is the temperature a Null Well must reach before it can split charged pulses: its glow must pay for an electron, k_B · T_H ≥ mₑ𝒞→², about 6 × 10⁹ K in our universe, reached only by wells lighter than about 2 × 10¹³ kg.
