The evaporation of a black hole is a direct result of which energy interaction occurring at the horizon?
Answer
The absorption of negative energy by the black hole
The absorption of the negative energy carried by the infalling partner balances the positive energy carried away by the escaping particle, leading directly to a reduction in the black hole's mass.
