Hi.
I've heard that it is impossible to "confine" a particle to a distance
smaller than one Planck length, since that would cause it to become a
black hole. But wait! A black hole singularity is a place of INFINITE
density, which means it's infinitely SMALLER than a Planck length! So
once you get it into a black hole, it is indeed "confined" to a much
smaller region!
Is it?
You are merely claiming that the 'new' black hole exists in another black
hole.
I don't see a problem there.
Or is it possible that perhaps black holes are _not_
infinitely dense, and this is just a place where current theory fails,
and that they might in reality have only finite (but presumably, huge)
density?
Maybe.
I am in the process of redesigning my BHP12 (Black Hole Probe 12). The first
11 didn't return.
Seriously, physics is/has no crystall ball, and what goes on excactly in a
singularity in not excactly easy to investigate, so you (and me and anybody
else) will have nothing more than theory, and no real data coming from the
inside.
As far as I understood, it was even proven impossible for information to
leave a gravitational singularity.
So we might never know, unless the proof is proven wrong. ;-)
