Black hole thermodynamics with generalized uncertainty principle
Abstract
In the standard viewpoint, the temperature of a stationary black hole is proportional to its surface gravity, . This is a semiclassical result and the quantum gravity effects are not taken into consideration. This Letter explores a unified expression for the black hole temperature in the sense of a generalized uncertainty principle(GUP). Our discussion involves a heuristic analysis of a particle which is absorbed by the black hole. Besides a class of static and spherically symmetric black holes, an axially symmetric Kerr-Newman black hole is considered. Different from the existing literature, we suggest that the black hole's irreducible mass represent the characteristic size in the absorption process. The information capacity of a remnant is also discussed by Bousso's D-bound in de Sitter spacetime.
