Chronological biography

1976

Black Hole Particle Emission15 January 1976
Science / Physics · Physicist

Calculates emission rates for massless particles from an uncharged, nonrotating black hole using Hawking radiation and black hole perturbation theory.

Rotating Black Hole Emission15 December 1976
Science / Physics · Physicist

Extends Hawking-radiation calculations to rotating black holes and studies how evaporation removes angular momentum.

1977

Charged Lepton Emission15 October 1977
Science / Physics · Physicist

Calculates Hawking emission of electrons and muons from a nonrotating black hole and analyzes fluctuations in the hole's electric charge.

1983

Hawking-Page Transition1983
Science / Physics · Physicist

With Stephen Hawking, identifies the thermodynamic phase transition now called the Hawking-Page transition in anti-de Sitter space.

1993

Page Curve1993
Science / Physics · Physicist

Derives the characteristic entropy evolution now called the Page curve for radiation from an evaporating black hole under unitary evolution.
