Can someone explain the four laws of black hole thermodynamics?

An account can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_thermodynamics

 

I may be able to suggest more technical accounts.

Can someone explain the statement, As the surface of the star is composed of ordinary matter, it must

move along a time-like trajectory, sandwiched between inward directed and outward

directed light surfaces, ?

You will need to learn a little of the terminology of special and general relativity.

Best of luck to the OP.

My copy arrived yesterday.

Everything they know about Black Holes are mostly theories, they have not been confirmed.

Just noticed my typo.

 

I trust that your copy is Quanatum Field Theory on Curved Spacetime and Black Hole Thermodynamics.

Even better, maybe he got Quanatum Field Theory on Curved Spacetime and Black Hole Thermodynamics.

The right title is in there somewhere.
