Comment on Self-Consistent Model of Black Hole Formation and Evaporation

High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-09-30 v2

Abstract

In an earlier work, Kawai et al proposed a model of black-hole formation and evaporation, in which the geometry of a collapsing shell of null dust is studied, including consistently the back reaction of its Hawking radiation. In this note, we illuminate the implications of their work, focusing on the resolution of the information loss paradox and the problem of the firewall.
