Bekenstein entropy

Bekenstein entropy is a concept in physics that describes the amount of information or disorder associated with a black hole’s surface, called its event horizon. It suggests that the maximum possible entropy (or informational content) of a black hole is proportional to the area of its horizon, not its volume. This idea helps scientists understand the relationship between black holes, information, and gravity, indicating that the more surfaces a black hole has, the greater its capacity to contain information. It bridges thermodynamics, quantum theory, and gravity, providing insights into the fundamental nature of the universe.
