bekenstein-hawking entropy
Bekenstein-Hawking entropy refers to the measure of the information content or the number of microstates associated with a black hole's event horizon. It quantifies the maximum number of ways that the information of all the particles falling into the black hole can be arranged on its surface, based on the mathematical formulation developed by physicists Jacob Bekenstein and Stephen Hawking.
