Is it possible for "Black Holes" to exist at an atomic level?

Question

What are the odds that every atom contains a sub atomic Black Hole, the heavier the mass the larger the hole? these holes are conected to other atoms "strings" that radiate energy.
yes i am proposing every atom contains a worm hole!

Answer 1

Yes, they are called "Quantum Blackholes". There were plenty of them when the Universe first formed, but they are very short-lived because they radiate away (this is called Hawking Radiation) their mass.

Physicists believe that they will be able to create quantum blackholes soon in the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) when they generate very very high energy collisions. They will look for signs of Hawking Radiation plus a shower of elementary particles.

However, blackholes probably don't exist inside atoms, since we already know that atoms are made of protons, neutrons and electrons. And protons and neutrons are made of even smaller particles called quarks. We simply haven't seen anything inside atoms that resembles a blackhole. Sorry.

BTW, at the sub-atomic scale, where distances are very very small, like 10^-13 cm, gravity's influence is enormous. This is because according to both Newton and Einstein, gravity follows a 1/r^2 law, meaning that the strength of gravity is proportional to the inverse of the distance squared. So if a particle is 0^-13 cm away from another particle, then the strength of gravity between them is 10^26 times larger than when the particles are only 1 cm apart. Now that's a huge! So you see gravity is very very important at the sub-atomic scale.

Answer 2

A black hole in the earth is called a cave and you cant see a thing in it because =no light.You could get sucked in a cave a never find your way out.

The nucleous of an atoms hold electrons captive in a orbital.Some radiation energy that goes into the orbital gets sucking in to it. And does not find its way out till it gets pushed out.
So there are similarity to a dark black hole cave with the atomic nucleous.

The relative space that exists inside the atom would be very much large than a worm hole. It is Awsome.

Answer 3

"...What are the odds that every atom contains a sub atomic Black Hole,.."

The odds are slim and none! Wouldn't the central black hole in atoms suck in all the other sub-atomic particles that make up a complete atom (..protons, neutrons, electrons..)? Also, wouldn't the intense gravitational force of a central atomic black hole have been scientifically detected by now?

Don't stop thinking, though!! : )

Answer 4

I look at the atomic structure to be much like unto our own solar system. You have a Nucleus (Our sun). you have protons and neutrons (Our planets) and you have free electrons (Comets).

I would propose that the black holes would be no different than a great star which did a super nova and collapsed in upon itself, so yes, I believe the probability factor would be quiet high.

Keep thinking outside the bun.

Answer 5

If the event horizon of the black hole is smaller than an atom, I don't believe that it could exist. The gravitational force is an insignificant force at that scale.

I believe that all non-charged particles have 0 mass which eliminates their ability to be a black hole.

Answer 6

Due to some unexplained process, we have seen that a black hole is mantained through some very exotic types of ions, don't knw more than this wright now, we are researching it.

Answer 7

Yes, they can exist...but only for a very short time. According to the Hawking principle, they lose mass very quickly in the form of energy, unlike their heavyweight cousins.

Answer 8

Interesting concept, I'll say that for it. I don't think it's possible, but then again, all kinds of things happen at the subatomic level that are impossible in the "macro-world."
