| dc.description | We compute the entropy of the Hawking radiation for an evaporating black hole, in 1+1 dimensions and in 3+1 dimensions. We investigate the validity of the semiclassical approximation for the evaporation process. It appears that there might be a large entropy of entanglement between the classical degrees of freedom describing the black hole and the radiation fields when the theory of quantum gravity plus matter is considered. | |
