Hello. I was reading some articles, and I stumbled upon an article about the idea of white holes. For the uneducated on what they are, they are, in a nutshell, what comes out on the other side of black holes. The idea states that the matter that enters into a black hole disperses onto the other side (a new universe.) I was just curious if this has any validity? By that I mean, is it possible to show evidence of, mathematically or physically?

Mathematically I suppose, physically? None that I know of.

Not sure about mathematically but I'm pretty sure no physical evidence even exists of blackholes let alone whiteholes. We only know about blackholes because we can see the effects of them (at least that's my understanding). Whiteholes just seem like pure conjecture, but I'm not an expert on the subject.

Hawking radiation is what (eventually) disperses black holes so we don't need white holes.

BTW, when I typed eventually, I really meant it. the process takes a VERY long time. But everything in a black hole someday dribbles out.

Matter that falls into black holes is converted to energy and radiated away in the form of Hawking's radiation. If this is true it would seem to me that matter stays in this universe and doesn't become the building blocks of some other universe.

I much rather enjoy the idea of a pink hole. There are plenty of articles on them and they usually have high definition pictures.

X-rays are physical evidence, aren't they?

X-rays are evidence of super heated gas. The reason it is superheated is because its believed to be circulating around a black hole. X-rays are indirect evidence.

White holes don't exist, no matter how hard you wipe.


Your move, whateverist.
