According to Hawkings theory, the information lost or sucked into the Black Hole can be conserved.
Hawking shares the credit of writing this theory with Cambridge Universitys Malcolm J Perry and Harvards Andrew Strominger.
This new discovery may very well earn the scientists a Nobel Prize.
So, what is the black hole information paradox?
Not even light is protected from this, thats how black holes got their name.
However, Hawking challenged the assumption that anything sucked into the massive objects is lost forever.
The hairs shred information from particles falling into the holes in the same way that nose hair gathers dust.
So it adds hair to the black hole.
So theres a kind of recording rig.
Hawking hinted at this last August in a lecture at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden.
The message of this lecture is that black holes aint as black as they are painted.
They are not the eternal prisons they were once thought.
Things can get out of a black hole both on the outside and possibly come out in another universe.
Hence, the paradox.
So its a very big thing if black holes destroy information.
Heres where the new paper comes in.
These bizarre particles change the vacuum of space-time and allow it to preserve information about the original particles.
We show that when a charged particle goes in, it adds a soft photon to the black hole.
So it adds hair to the black hole.
So theres a kind of recording gear.
Were saying that its a step on the way, he concludes.
