The Mysterious Radiation That Will Make Everything Evaporate: Hawking Radiation Explored

Astrophysicists have detected a mysterious radiation in which all massive objects will eventually evaporate. It is said that nothing lasts forever, and Hawking radiation, named after the late British physicist Stephen Hawking, is characteristic not only of black holes, but of other massive objects in the universe. This means that, like all black holes, they gradually evaporate. And over time, it will completely evaporate, that is, it will disappear. Dutch astrophysicists from the University of Nijmegen predicted such an end for the universe.

It is believed that the radiation of black holes is generated near the so-called “event horizon”, which is a certain region, beyond which it is not possible to avoid the black hole’s gravity. It pulls you in and doesn’t make you come back.

In a study published in the journal Physical Review Letters, the Dutch demonstrated that radiation similar to Hawking radiation can also occur far beyond the event horizon, i.e. in regions where the fabric of space-time is curved. For example, next to huge bodies such as stars and even planets, according to the “Russia Today” website.

“Some kind of Hawking radiation will eventually evaporate everything around it, like in black holes,” says one of the study’s authors. While scientists from the California Institute of Technology believe that the universe will evaporate faster than the Dutch think, its accelerated expansion worries them.

And they say: “The forces of repulsion resulting from dark matter or dark energy will cause the expansion of the universe that will lead to the Big Bang, and this means that it will explode after 22 billion years.”

According to a hypothesis put forward by scientists, our Milky Way galaxy will disintegrate 60 million years before the Big Bang. And 3 months before the end of all endings, the planets of the solar system will scatter. And half an hour before that, our Earth will turn to dust. At the last moment, the atomic nuclei will dissolve, and with them everything that exists in the universe.

Will there be anything later, after evaporation, or after the Big Bang? – Maybe nothing else. But it is not inconceivable that the evaporated or decayed matter, which does not disappear without a trace as we know, would suddenly gather again into a very dense point, and explode in a new big bang, as was the case about 14 billion years ago, after which the formed universe began to evaporate and expansion.
