That is where Popper comes in. According to him, we can’t prove a physical model, only falsify it. So we can say that the authors derived a prediction from the model, that can be tested. If a black hole is observed to unstable it will falsify the theory.
My issue is with link title, not the work itself.
- ilayn 4y agoYou would be surprised how much Popper's work is falsified. I get what you mean but it only stays as a romantic goal and the reality is much more messed up. The title says given the current understanding of fhe Black Hole dynamics, if we plug in the numbers to the model the resulting dynamics can be shown to be stable whichnis exactly what the result is set out to do. Hence no popperian borders have been crossed.
