Stephen Hawking’s Legacy | Confirmation of the Black Hole Area Theorem Through Gravitational Wave Astronomy
Stephen Hawking’s scientific legacy is deeply rooted in the fundamental understanding of gravity, black holes, and the underlying connections between quantum theory and general relativity. Among his most profound contributions is the formulation of the Black Hole Area Theorem in 1971, which has now been empirically confirmed through gravitational wave observations by the international LIGO–Virgo–KAGRA (LVK) network. This breakthrough not[…]
