1. That equation explains how energy can be borrowed from the vacuum briefly (time t) create the pair. It in no way explains how energy from the hole (what kind of energy?) creates pairs beyond the event horizon.

3. So when they annihilate, their energy, zero, tunnels back into the hole?

2. Patronising? Likewise, no need to "simplify" thank you.



Not doubting the fact of the radiation or the explanation, but I just thought I had missed something obvious. It clearly is not that obvious and not just me.
