  Title: Photonic Dissipation andGeometric Encoding in Black Hole Singularities Author: Eran Sinbar Affiliation: Technion, Israeli Institute of Technology Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract We propose a mechanism in which both mass-energy and information are ultimately transformed and rendered null within black holes. As matter approaches the singularity, it undergoes spaghettification, a process that leads to its annihilation into high-frequency photons. These photons, in turn, experience extreme tidal elongation near the singularity—a phenomenon we refer to as photonic spaghettification. As they approach the singular point, gravitational redshift causes their wavelengths to stretch indefinitely, with their energies asymptotically approaching zero. Concurrently, the infalling matter imprints a distinct curvature pattern onto the surrounding spacetime, effectively encoding information. Notably, even quantum information generated after crossing the event horizon—such as that arising in a Schrödinger’s cat-type experiment—becomes embedded within this dynamic spacetime geometry. Over time, this geometric imprint is gradually released through Hawking radiation, offering a thermodynamically and geometrically consistent resolution to the black hole information paradox by enabling information to be recovered through the evaporation process. 1. Introduction The fate of matter and energy that crosses the event horizon of a black hole remains one of the most fundamental open questions in theoretical physics. According to general relativity, such matter proceeds toward a singularity where classical physics breaks down. In parallel, quantum mechanics enforces unitary evolution, suggesting that no information can be truly lost. This paper addresses two intertwined problems:

  1. What isthe endpoint of matter and energy falling into a black hole? 2. How is information preserved and possibly returned to the external universe? We propose a dual mechanism: (1) matter is converted into radiation through thermodynamic dissipation, and this radiation is continuously redshifted—its wavelength stretched via tidal effects—to the point of zero energy; (2) the process imprints a curvature structure on spacetime which gradually evaporates through Hawking radiation, encoding and releasing information. 2. Tidal Spaghettification and Photonic Generation As matter falls into a black hole, it experiences anisotropic tidal forces. Radially, it is stretched, while transversely, it is compressed. This effect leads to extreme spaghettification, where molecular and atomic bonds are broken, followed by high- energy interactions including pair annihilation and nuclear disintegration. The outcome is a cascade of high-frequency photons created during the collapse. Initially energetic, these photons then follow the same fate as matter: they undergo spaghettification—not in the material sense, but in terms of wavelength elongation and energy dilution. 3. Photonic Energy Dissipation: Wavelength Stretching to Zero Energy As photons travel inward in the gravitational field, they are subjected to both spacetime curvature and extreme redshifting. The energy of a photon is given by: E= hc/λ Where: • E is the energy of the photon, • h is Planck’s constant, • c is the speed of light, • λ is the wavelength of the photon. In the presence of intense gravitational fields near the singularity, the wavelength of photons stretches indefinitely: λ→∞⇒E→0

  environments jointly drivethe wavelength increase and energy depletion—an effect we describe as photonic spaghettification. 4. The Singularity as a Zero-Energy Limit Unlike the traditional view of a singularity as a point of infinite energy density, our model interprets it as a thermodynamic and geometric boundary where all energy has been redshifted and stretched into irretrievable, zero-energy photons. No physical energy remains at the singularity; instead, it marks the end point of a process where energy is dissipated through extreme redshift. This suggests that, near singularities, quantities such as energy may effectively vanish or diverge, and the energy initially contained in matter can be redistributed into the curvature and structure of spacetime itself. 5. Geometric Memory and Information Encoding While energy disappears asymptotically, information does not. The detailed trajectory and structure of spaghettified matter and photons carve a unique curvature imprint into the black hole’s internal geometry. We conceptualize this as a geometric memory surface—a nonlocal encoding of all infall events. This curvature structure remains dynamically embedded in the evolving black hole spacetime and serves as the carrier of quantum information. As the black hole evaporates through Hawking radiation, this structure decays and transfers information back into the universe. 6. Hawking Radiation and the Release of Encoded Information Though Hawking radiation is thermal at leading order, higher-order corrections and correlations may encode information about the internal structure of the black hole. In our model: • The Hawking radiation spectrum is modulated by the spacetime curvature structure created by past infalling matter. • This structure acts as a boundary condition, influencing outgoing radiation via quantum backreaction.

  • As theblack hole shrinks, this structure “evaporates” and releases its encoded information, completing a unitary cycle. Thus, the black hole is not a sink of information, but a thermodynamic engine that stores and slowly re-emits information via geometry-modulated radiation. 7. Conclusion We have presented a model in which: • Matter falling into a black hole is converted into high-energy photons through thermodynamic dissipation. • These photons undergo extreme wavelength stretching (photonic spaghettification) and gravitational redshift, reducing their energy to zero as they approach the singularity. • The infall process leaves a geometric imprint in spacetime that encodes information. • This structure evaporates through Hawking radiation, allowing for unitary information return. This perspective integrates general relativity, quantum field theory, and thermodynamics into a consistent framework, potentially resolving the black hole information paradox without invoking exotic physics.

  This image visuallyrepresents the concept of the singularity as a zero-energy limit. At the center lies a black hole, surrounded by a warped grid that symbolizes the extreme curvature of spacetime. Radiating outward are red, stretched photon lines—depicting energy that has been redshifted to the point of vanishing. Rather than representing infinite energy density, the singularity is portrayed as a thermodynamic boundary where all energy is absorbed and curved into the fabric of spacetime itself. References 1.
