🔬 Black hole mergers link to thermodynamics, study shows

Physicists discovered an unexpected link between black hole mergers and the principles of thermodynamics. Researchers at various US universities showed that the remnant of a non-spinning black hole merger nears a maximum entropy state. This finding was published in Physical Review Letters, reinforcing the connection between these two physics areas. The study suggests thermodynamics can predict the final state of such mergers, bypassing complex supercomputer simulations. Future work aims to extend this 'maximum entropy conjecture' to more general binary systems. 🤯
