Comment on the video "Hawking radiation" by Dr. Matt O'Dowd and PBS Space Time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPKj0YnKANw

This explanation of Hawking radiation requires a very simple version of what I call Vector-Tensor-Scalar Geometry. Imagine a rectangle with angles A,B,C,D plus a green diagonal and a red point in the centre (and on the diagonal). Now I’ll summarize the basics in one paragraph. A vector is a quantity which possesses both magnitude and direction. Two such quantities acting on a point (represented by electromagnetism’s vector of the photon and gravitation’s vector of the undiscovered graviton interacting to produce the red Scalar quantity) may be represented by two adjoining sides of a parallelogram (e.g. CD and AD), so that the resultant diagonal (green line) represents the interacting vectors. The two sides and diagonal thus illustrate the graviton's spin 2 and the photon's spin 1. The resultant diagonal represents the interaction of the sides/vectors (1÷2 = the spin ½ of every matter particle). Tensor calculus changes the coordinates of the sides and diagonal into the coordinates of a single point (the scalar) on the diagonal. This scalar point is associated with particles of spin 0. If the mass produced previously happens to be 125 GeV/c^2, its union with spin 0 produces the Higgs boson - and relates the Higgs boson/field to the supposedly unrelated graviton/gravitational field (together with the latter's constant interaction with the photon/electromagnetic field).

Black holes are normally thought of as being formed by supernovas. According to this article’s vector-tensor-scalar geometry, they can also be produced by the quantum pressure of interacting gravitons and photons. This pressure would be identified as mass and would not magically stop at the event horizon but would naturally affect the environment of the black holes. Since this pressure extends into the black hole's environment, the black hole is losing what we term “mass”, as Stephen Hawking's idea of "Hawking radiation" tells us (radiation of a thermal nature - heat - implies that electromagnetism's photons are present). Since the geometry was inspired by a paper Albert Einstein published in 1919, it would - if correct - be a step towards quantum gravity, the ongoing quest to link Einstein’s general relativity with quantum mechanics. Mathematics' quaternions and Riemann hypothesis support this reasoning which explains dark matter and dark energy. I think You Tube deletes comments that include links – so if you wish to read about other topics besides VTS Geometry, look up my name on the website ResearchGate.
