Speaker: Dieter Van den Bleeken (Boğaziçi University)

Place: Sabancı University, FENS L062

Abstract:
The study of black hole thermodynamics has been one of the most
important guidances for research on quantum gravity. I will present a
broad introduction into the subject, reviewing some of the basic
motivations, questions and results in the field. I will then move on
and discuss some of my own recent research on this topic, concerning
black holes in string theory .
