I think you mean Hawking radiation. Hawking radiation is a type of thermal radiation (that is, radiation ofh eat) thought to come from black holes. Stephen Hawking proposed a theory of this sort of radiation in 1974. Most of the evidence is simply indirect; there has not yet been any observational proof of Hawking radiation.

Asker's Rating:

• Do you think Scientist will verify Hawkin's radiation in the next five year? Wired seems to think that Scientist are close to discovering the radiation existence.
