The entropy bound from black hole thermodynamics can be invoked to set limits for temperatures at which hadrons can survive as a confined system. We find that this implies that the pion can be formed in heavy ion collisions, much later than heavier mesons, for example the ρ-meson, when the fireball is cooler. The temperature found in a simple model agree qualitatively with experiment. We also suggest that this may be the reason why in pion interferometry experiments the space-time volume of the pion source seems large.

Black hole thermodynamics suggests that the maximum entropy that can be contained in a region of space is proportional to the area enclosing it rather than its volume. We argue that this follows naturally from loop quantum gravity and a result of Kolmogorov and Bardzin' on the the realizability of networks in three dimensions. This represents an alternative to other approaches in which some sort of correlation between field configurations helps limit the degrees of freedom within a region. It also provides an approach to thinking about black hole entropy in terms of states inside rather than on its surface. Intuitively, a spin network complicated enough to imbue a region with volume only lets that volume grow as quickly as the area bounding it.

The collision centrality dependencies of the average kinematical characteristics of the negative and positive pions, produced in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text], were investigated. The ratio [Formula: see text] proved to be [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] in the peripheral, semicentral, and central [Formula: see text] collision events, respectively, decreasing noticeably with increasing collision centrality. The suppression (decrease) of the ratio [Formula: see text] was observed in the semicentral and central [Formula: see text] collisions as compared to the ratio [Formula: see text], estimated using the simple model for [Formula: see text] collision system. The ratio [Formula: see text] estimated using the simple model agreed well with the corresponding ratio [Formula: see text], estimated for [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text] based on the Wounded Nucleon Model (WNM). Comparison of the emission angle as well as momentum distributions of the charged pions in the peripheral and central [Formula: see text] collisions revealed the significant decrease of the fraction of the relatively fast charged pions (with smaller emission angles) and increase of the fraction of the relatively slow charged pions (with larger emission angles) with an increase in collision centrality. The results of the present analysis can be useful for analysis of the centrality dependence of the charged pion production in heavy ion collisions at high energies.

We investigate the effects of space noncommutativity and the generalized uncertainty principle on the thermodynamics of a radiating Schwarzschild black hole. We show that evaporation process is in such a way that black hole reaches a maximum temperature before its final stage of evolution and then cools down to a nonsingular remnant with zero temperature and entropy. We compare our results with more reliable results of string theory. This comparison shows that GUP and space noncommutativity are similar concepts at least from the viewpoint of black hole thermodynamics.

Relativistic heavy ion collisions create a strongly coupled quark–gluon plasma. Some of the plasma's properties can be approximately understood in terms of a dual black hole. These properties include shear viscosity, thermalization time, and drag force on heavy quarks. They are hard to calculate from first principles in QCD. Extracting predictions about quark–gluon plasmas from dual black holes mostly involves solving Einstein's equations and classical string equations of motion. AdS/CFT provides a translation from gravitational calculations to gauge theory predictions. The gauge theory to which the predictions apply is [Formula: see text] super-Yang–Mills theory. QCD is different in many respects from super-Yang–Mills, but it seems that its high temperature properties are similar enough for us to make some meaningful comparisons.
