The 12 pages that link to Black hole thermodynamics, each with the reason it gives.

• Black holeRelated: It connects black-hole properties to statistical physics and quantum theory.

• Event horizonRelated: Its entropy-area relation makes the horizon central to black hole statistical physics.

• Hawking radiationNarrower topic: Hawking radiation supplied the physical temperature needed to complete this framework.

• Stephen HawkingRelated: Hawking helped establish the laws that connect black-hole mechanics with ordinary thermodynamics.

• John Archibald WheelerRelated: Wheeler’s research group helped establish the questions that led to this framework.

• Penrose processRelated: The process helped establish that black holes possess extractable rotational energy and an area constraint.

• Astronomical black holesRelated: It links horizon geometry to entropy and temperature.

• Entropy as an arrow of timeRelated: Black holes show that gravity can dominate entropy accounting on cosmic scales.

• Geometrized unit systemRelated: Geometrized quantities help express black-hole mass, area, and horizon scales consistently.

• Micro black holeRelated: It supplies the thermodynamic basis for predicting radiation from tiny black holes.

• Rotating black holeRelated: Its laws include rotational energy and angular velocity at the horizon.

• White holeRelated: Its time-reversal puzzles highlight why a white hole is not simply an ordinary black hole run backward.
