Black Hole. Black Holes and Baby Universes

All about Professor Stephen William Hawking

Hawking took a zero-gravity flight in a reduced-gravity aircraft, 2007

Professor Stephen William Hawking was born on 8th January 1942 (exactly 300 years after the death of Galileo) in Oxford, England. His parents' house was in north London but during the Second World War Oxford was considered a safer place to have babies. When he was eight his family moved to St. Albans, a town about 20 miles north of London. At the age of eleven, Stephen went to St. Albans School and then on to University College, Oxford (1952); his father's old college. Stephen wanted to study mathematics although his father would have preferred medicine. Mathematics was not available at University College, so he pursued physics instead. After three years and not very much work, he was awarded a first class honors degree in natural science.

In October 1962, Stephen arrived at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (DAMTP) at the University of Cambridge to do research in cosmology, there being no-one working in that area in Oxford at the time. His supervisor was Dennis Sciama, although he had hoped to get Fred Hoyle who was working in Cambridge. After gaining his PhD (1965) with his thesis titled 'Properties of Expanding Universes', he became, first, a research fellow (1965) then Fellow for Distinction in Science (1969) at Gonville & Caius College. In 1966 he won the Adams Prize for his essay 'Singularities and the Geometry of Space-time'. Stephen moved to the Institute of Astronomy (1968), later moving back to DAMTP (1973), employed as a research assistant, and published his first academic book, The Large Scale Structure of Space-Time, with George Ellis. During the next few years, Stephen was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (1974) and Sherman Fairchild Distinguished Scholar at the California Institute of Technology (1974). He became a Reader in Gravitational Physics at DAMTP (1975), progressing to Professor of Gravitational Physics (1977). He then held the position of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics (1979-2009). The chair was founded in 1663 with money left in the will of the Reverend Henry Lucas who had been the Member of Parliament for the University. It was first held by Isaac Barrow and then in 1669 by Isaac Newton. Stephen is currently the Dennis Stanton Avery and Sally Tsui Wong-Avery Director of Research at DAMTP.

Professor Stephen Hawking has worked on the basic laws which govern the universe. With Roger Penrose he showed that Einstein's general theory of relativity implied space and time would have a beginning in the Big Bang and an end in black holes (1970). These results indicated that it was necessary to unify general relativity with quantum theory, the other great scientific development of the first half of the 20th century. One consequence of such a unification that he discovered was that black holes should not be completely black, but rather should emit 'Hawking' radiation and eventually evaporate and disappear (1974). Another conjecture is that the universe has no edge or boundary in imaginary time. This would imply that the way the universe began was completely determined by the laws of science. Recently Stephen has been working with colleagues on a possible resolution to the black hole information paradox, where debate centres around the conservation of information.

His many publications include The Large Scale Structure of Spacetime with G F R Ellis, General Relativity: An Einstein Centenary Survey, with W Israel, and 300 Years of Gravitation, with W Israel. Among the popular books Stephen Hawking has published are his best seller A Brief History of Time, Black Holes and Baby Universes and Other Essays, The Universe in a Nutshell, The Grand Design and My Brief History.

Professor Stephen Hawking has thirteen honorary degrees. He was awarded CBE (1982), Companion of Honour (1989) and the Presidential Medal of Freedom (2009). He is the recipient of many awards, medals and prizes, most notably the Fundamental Physics prize (2013), Copley Medal (2006) and the Wolf Foundation prize (1988). He is a Fellow of the Royal Society and a member of the US National Academy of Sciences and the Pontifical Academy of Sciences.

In 1963 Stephen was diagnosed with ALS, a form of Motor Neurone Disease, shortly after his 21st birthday. In spite of being wheelchair-bound and dependent on a computerised voice system for communication Stephen continues to combine family life (he has three children and three grandchildren) with his research into theoretical physics, in addition to an extensive programme of travel and public lectures.

Included below are a selection of Professor Hawking's public lectures.

Into a Black Hole 2008

Is it possible to fall in a black hole, and come out in another universe? Can you escape from a black hole once you fall inside? In this lecture I talk about some of the things I've found out about black holes.

The Origin of the Universe 2005

Why are we here? Where did we come from? The answer generally given was that humans were of comparatively recent origin, because it must have been obvious, even at early times, that the human race was improving in knowledge and technology. So it can't have been around that long, or it would have progressed even more.

Godel and the End of Physics 2002

In this talk, I want to ask how far can we go in our search for understanding and knowledge. Will we ever find a complete form of the laws of nature? By a complete form, I mean a set of rules that in principle at least enable us to predict the future to an arbitrary accuracy, knowing the state of the universe at one time. A qualitative understanding of the laws has been the aim of philosophers and scientists, from Aristotle onwards.

Space and Time Warps 1999

In science fiction, space and time warps are a commonplace. They are used for rapid journeys around the galaxy, or for travel through time. But today's science fiction, is often tomorrow's science fact. So what are the chances for space and time warps.

Does God Play Dice 1999

This lecture is about whether we can predict the future, or whether it is arbitrary and random. In ancient times, the world must have seemed pretty arbitrary. Disasters such as floods or diseases must have seemed to happen without warning or apparent reason. Primitive people attributed such natural phenomena, to a pantheon of gods and goddesses, who behaved in a capricious and whimsical way. There was no way to predict what they would do, and the only hope was to win favor by gifts or actions.

The Beginning of Time 1996

In this lecture, I would like to discuss whether time itself has a beginning, and whether it will have an end. All the evidence seems to indicate, that the universe has not existed forever, but that it had a beginning, about 15 billion years ago. This is probably the most remarkable discovery of modern cosmology. Yet it is now taken for granted. We are not yet certain whether the universe will have an end.

Life in the Universe 1996

In this talk, I would like to speculate a little, on the development of life in the universe, and in particular, the development of intelligent life. I shall take this to include the human race, even though much of its behavior throughout history, has been pretty stupid, and not calculated to aid the survival of the species.

Books

Professor Hawking has published many books tackling the fundamental questions about the universe and our existence. Stephen has also published many scientific papers and lecture notes.

My Brief History

My Brief History recounts Stephen Hawking’s improbable journey, from his post-war London boyhood to his years of international acclaim and celebrity. Illustrated with rarely seen photographs, this concise, witty and candid account introduces readers to the inquisitive schoolboy whose classmates nicknamed him ‘Einstein’; the jokester who once placed a bet with a colleague over the existence of a black hole; and the young husband and father striving to gain a foothold in the world of academia. Read more, or you can order your copy at amazon.com

The Grand Design

When and how did the universe begin? Why are we here? What is the nature of reality? Is the apparent ‘grand design’ of our universe evidence for a benevolent creator who set things in motion? Or does science offer another explanation? In The Grand Design, the most recent scientific thinking about the mysteries of the universe is presented in language marked by both brilliance and simplicity. Read more, or you can order your copy at amazon.com.

A Brief History of Time

Was there a beginning of time? Could time run backwards? Is the universe infinite or does it have boundaries? These are just some of the questions considered in an internationally acclaimed masterpiece by one of the world's greatest thinkers. It begins by reviewing the great theories of the cosmos from Newton to Einstein, before delving into the secrets which still lie at the heart of space and time, from the Big Bang to black holes, via spiral galaxies and strong theory.

George and the Blue Moon

“It is said that fact is sometimes stranger than fiction, and nowhere is that more true than in the case of black holes. Black holes are stranger than anything dreamed up by science fiction writers.”

In 2016 Professor Stephen Hawking delivered the BBC Reith Lectures on a subject that has fascinated him for decades – black holes. In these flagship lectures the legendary physicist argues that if we could only understand black holes and how they challenge the very nature of space and time, we could unlock the secrets of the universe.

In my latest book for children, "George and the Blue Moon", George and Annie, set out to solve a mystery set on one of the cosmic water worlds of space. Is there life under the icy crust? Where did those robots come from and who is controlling them? Meanwhile, my two young heroes win places on a Mars training programme which has a dangerous and unexpected twist. Suddenly, the best friends find themselves fighting for survival in what feels like the Hunger Games set on the red planet. Packed with space facts and essays from leading scientists, it is my most unpredictable thriller so far!

George and the Unbreakable Code

George and the Big Bang

Stephen and Lucy Hawking's fourth book about the adventures of George and Annie.

Just as thrilling a book as all the ones before it, George and the Unbreakable Code also delves deeper and covers topics and ideas that the intended readers might not normally think about.

Overall, a brilliant book as always brought from the fabulous Hawking duo. See a review, or you can order your copy at amazon.com.

The third book in the series, with a full color set of photographs, illustrating the wonder of the cosmos, George and the Big Bang, follows George’s adventures in the universe. You can order your copy at amazon.com or amazon.co.uk

George's Cosmic Treasure Hunt

The second in the series of children's books written by Stephen and Lucy Hawking. George and Annie, the middle-school cosmologists, return in this sequel to George's Secret Key to the Universe. You can order your copy at amazon.com.

George's Secret Key to the Universe

The first in a series of children's books that melds cosmology and adventure, co-authored by Professor Hawking and his daughter Lucy.

George's best friend Annie needs help. Her scientist father, Eric, is working on a space project - and it's all going wrong. A robot has landed on Mars, but is behaving very oddly. And now Annie has discovered something weird on her dad's super-computer... You can order your copy at amazon.com.

The Universe in a Nutshell

In 200 highly illustrated pages, Hawking is pushing the frontiers of popular physics beyond relativity and quantum theory, past superstring theory and imaginary time, into a dizzying new world of M-theory and branes. Read more, or you can order your copy at amazon.com.

Black Holes and Baby Universes

In his first collection of essays and other pieces - on subjects that range from warmly personal to the wholly scientific- Stephen Hawking is revealed variously as the scientist, the man, the concerned world citizen, and - as always - the rigorous and imaginative thinker. You can order your copy at amazon.com.

On the Shoulders of Giants

On the Shoulders of Giants tells a compelling story, using original papers from Einstein, Copernicus, Galilei, Kepler and Newton. Theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking explains how these works changed the course of science, ushering astronomy and physics out of the Middle Ages and into the modern world. Read more, or you can order your copy at amazon.com.

The Large Scale Structure of Space-time

A textbook for Physicists, this 1973 book explores two predictions of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity: first, that the ultimate destiny of many massive stars is to undergo gravitational collapse and to disappear from view, leaving behind a 'black hole' in space; and secondly, that there will exist singularities in space-time itself. You can order your copy at amazon.com.

God created the Integers

God Created The Integersis Stephen Hawking's personal choice of the greatest mathematical works in history. The book includes landmark discoveries spanning 2500 years and representing the work of mathematicians such as Euclid, Georg Cantor, Kurt Godel, Augustin Cauchy, Bernard Riemann and Alan Turing. You can order your copy at amazon.com.

Stephen Hawking quotes:

Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.

The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.

I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road.

We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special.

My goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all.

Life would be tragic if it weren't funny.

I have no idea. People who boast about their IQ are losers.

People won't have time for you if you are always angry or complaining.

We only have to look at ourselves to see how intelligent life might develop into something we wouldn’t want to meet,

Not only does God play dice, but... he sometimes throws them where they cannot be seen.

There is no heaven or afterlife for broken-down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark.

“I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail,” he said. “There is no heaven or afterlife for broken-down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark.”

He spoke also of death, an eventuality that sat on a more distant horizon than doctors thought. “I’m not afraid of death, but I’m in no hurry to die,” he said. “I have so much I want to do first.”

What is 5G?

History

1G - 1982

2G - 1991 – Texting

3G – 1998 – Texting, Internet Access

4G – 2008 - Texting, Internet Access, Video

5G -2020 - Texting, Internet Access, Ultra HD & 3D Video, Smart Home.

5G simply stands for the fifth generation and refers to the next and newest mobile wireless standard based on the IEEE 802.11ac standard of broadband technology, although a formal standard for 5G is yet to be set.

Intel's Vision for 5G

Learn more about Intel's vision for 5G and discover the benefits, from
ultra-reliability and low latency to massive M2M connectivity, only 5G has the scale and scope to enable new insights, drive business efficiencies, and create data monetization.

Intel is using all that firepower for the Games to roll out 4K and even some 8K video, which offer image quality many times higher than that of HD.

Advantages of 5G

Like all the previous generations, 5G will be significantly faster than its predecessor 4G.

This should allow for higher productivity across all capable devices with a theoretical download speed of 10,000 Mbps.

"Current 4G mobile standards have the potential to provide 100s of Mbps. 5G offers to take that into multi-gigabits per second, giving rise to the ‘Gigabit Smartphone’.

Plus, with greater bandwidth comes faster download speeds and the ability to run more complex mobile internet apps.

The future of 5G

As 5G is still in development, it is not yet open for use by anyone. However, lots of companies have started creating 5G products and field testing them.

Notable advancements in 5G technologies have come from Nokia, Qualcomm, Samsung, Ericsson and BT, with growing numbers of companies forming 5G partnerships and pledging money to continue to research into 5G and its application.

Qualcomm and Samsung have focused their 5G efforts on hardware, with Qualcomm creating a 5G modem and Samsung producing a 5G enabled home router.

Both Nokia and Ericcson have created 5G platforms aimed at mobile carriers rather than consumers. Ericsson created the first 5G platform earlier this year that claims to provide the first 5G radio system. Ericsson began 5G testing in 2015.

Who is building it?

Each of the four nationwide cell phone carriers -KT(korea)- Verizon (VZ), AT&T (T), T-Mobile (TMUS) and Sprint (S) -- are developing and testing 5G network technology. Chipmakers, including Qualcomm and Intel, are building processors and radios that enable 5G communications. And the major network equipment companies, including Nokia (NOK), Ericsson and Huawei, are building the backbone and equipment to support 5G.

When is it coming?

The wireless industry expects 5G networks to launch in 2020.

This month, 5G cleared a significant hurdle when 3GPP, an international wireless consortium, approved a technology standard for next-generation networks. Next year, the United Nations' International Telecommunications Union is expected to review 3GPP's standard. After that, wireless companies can begin buying and selling 5G equipment with the assurance that it will all work together.

Happiness

10 other ways we say “I love you”

From early on in the relationship to throughout your time together, there are ways to say “I love you” without saying “I love you.” And, in many cases, the alternatives are more meaningful, because they are, arguably, more clear.

Jessica Semaan wrote a lovely piece on other ways to say “I love you.” In response, here are ten additional alternatives I’ll offer:

“I see you.” Not always in the literal sense, though sometimes even looking directly at the person you care about, with undivided attention, can mean the world. But beyond that, the gesture of emotional and mental acknowledgment is invaluable. It is the basic foundation of “you matter.”It is the second of buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh’s four love mantras: “Darling, I know you are there.”

“I understand you.” The gift of listening, and empathy. And in the case of hard times, it is the third of Thich Nhat Hanh’s four love mantras: “Darling, I know you are suffering.”

“I am here for you.” The gift of presence. Physical and emotional. I love the concept of “holding space.” As someone who prefers to show rather than say emotions, this one is incredibly meaningful for me, both to give and receive. But this can be as light as “I am here with you;” i.e., “quality time.” This is the first of Thich Nhat Hanh’s four love mantras: “Darling, I am here.”

“I cherish, honor, and respect you as your own person, with your own lived experience outside of what you offer me, my wants, or my needs.” And, put differently.

“I will care lightly, with non-attachment, and I will let you breathe. “When your love is genuine, it is calm and composed enough — secure enough — to let the other person exist freely.

“I value whatever is best for your own lived experience.” And, put differently: “I value your happiness enough that I just want you to be happy.”

“I give without needing anything in return — and this includes ‘love’ or ‘appreciation.’” Love does not come with conditions. These are conditions.

“Your pain is my pain.” But, in should be said, never in a way that “usurps” their pain. Sometimes people have this incredibly unwelcoming habit of “over-taking” your own experience and reacting more to it than you have; that’s not the love I’m talking about. This is quiet — an echo back; a silent reflection; a shared embrace.

“Your happiness is my happiness.” Again, never to “usurp” the happiness of the beloved, always in echo and embrace.

“I will help.” As someone who values self-sufficiency, receiving an act of service is an act of vulnerability. When someone offers help — and then actually follows through on it without looking for anything (including “appreciation”) in return — it’s like a one-two punch that’s hard to mis-read.

Different messages are meant for different people, but these are some of mine.

None of them, you may note, include messages of either:

“Feelings” (“I feel,” “You make me feel,” “I am overwhelmed with,” etc.)or “My wants and needs” (none of them start with “I want,” and none of them end with “I want.” Or any synonyms.)

Because self-serving notions are not full love. That’s not to say that we should not protect ourselves from toxic or harmful love, but (a) doing so is not love in and of itself and (b) serving our interests isn’t either. It’s merely a check; a safeguard.

Love is extending energy to another person, as they exist, in and of themselves — not as they exist in relation to you, and certainly not for what they offer you.

"True love stands alone; true love is offering, doing so freely. And true love is said in so many other, sometimes even more meaningful, ways than those three little words" — albeit they’re still nice to hear !!!
