Stretched Horizon for Non-Supersymmetric Black Holes

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2010-12-13 v1

Abstract

We review the idea of stretched horizon for extremal black holes in supersymmetric string theories, and we compute it for non-supersymmetric black holes in four dimensions. Only for small masses of the order of the Veneziano wavelength is the stretched horizon bigger than the event horizon.
