The feasibility of black holes composed completely of light remains a theoretical concept in the realms of physics.
In a groundbreaking study, researchers from the University of Waterloo and the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics have delved into the enigmatic realm of Kugelblitze, theoretical black holes formed solely by light concentration.
The study, published in the Physical Review Letters, focuses on the impact of quantum effects on the formation of Kugelblitze. While general relativity allows for such black holes to form from energy alone, quantum gravity considerations complicate the picture at very small scales or near Planck-scale energies.
However, the findings indicate that the formation of a Kugelblitze remains highly unlikely due to the immense energy requirements. The energy needed to create a Kugelblitze is far beyond what current laser or particle accelerator technologies achieve. Even using the most powerful lasers available on Earth, we are still far from reaching the intensity needed to create a Kugelblitz.
The researchers calculated the rate at which these particle pairs consume the energy of the electromagnetic field, shedding light on the daunting energy requirements for Kugelblitze formation. The energy required for the formation of a Kugelblitze is more than 50 orders of magnitude greater than what we can currently produce.
The study challenges astrophysical and cosmological models that assumed the existence of Kugelblitze. It rules out the possibility of studying black holes in the laboratory by creating them by concentrating light.
While Kugelblitze are theoretically possible given general relativity and quantum considerations, they remain purely speculative and beyond current technological capabilities to create or observe directly.
The Schwinger effect, a phenomenon where extremely intense electromagnetic fields transform some of their energy into matter, creating pairs of particles called electrons and positrons, was also studied in the context of Kugelblitze formation.
It's important to note that a ball flash, also known as "ball lightning," is a hypothetical black hole formed from a huge concentration of electromagnetic radiation. However, natural phenomena sometimes called kugelblitz, like ball lightning, are unrelated and are not black holes formed by light.
In summary, while Kugelblitze are theoretically possible given general relativity and quantum considerations, they remain purely speculative and beyond current technological capabilities to create or observe directly. As we continue to explore the mysteries of the universe, the quest for understanding Kugelblitze remains an intriguing challenge for theoretical physicists.
