| contents | Stephen Hawkings most important scientific contribution was his theoretical discovery that black holes aint so black, since they emit thermal radiation as if they were hot bodies with an absolute temperature known as the Hawking temperature. Although this year marks half a century since Hawking made his discovery, it remains unknown to the vast majority of people. In his popular books, Hawking explains the significance of his discovery in a simple way, using the so-called vacuum quantum fluctuations. The aim of this work is to bring Hawking's discovery to the widest possible audience, especially physics teachers. To do this, we will develop a derivation of the Hawking temperature that fairly faithfully translates Hawking's quantum fluctuation model into the mathematical language used by a typical physics teacher, whether in training or in practice. |
