A set of lecture notes with a section on black holes, as well as current work in string theory.

We review the observational evidence for black holes, and briefly discuss some of their properties. We also describe some recent developments involving cosmic censorship and the statistical origin of black hole entropy

An FAQ list by Matt McIrvin containing basic questions and answers related to black holes.

Physicists may soon create artificial analogs of black holes in the laboratory.

An informal introduction to types, formation, and environment.

A set of notes on aspects of black holes.

The Schwarzschild geometry describes the spacetime geometry of empty space surrounding any spherical mass.

An overview of modern research in black holes without the use of mathematical equations.

This review gives an introduction into problems, concepts and techniques when quantizing matter fields near black holes. The first part focusses on quantum fields in general curved space-times. The second part is devoted to a detailed treatment of the Unruh effect in uniformly accelerated frames and the Hawking radiation of black holes

A brief mathematical description of this phenomenon and diagrams of the mathematical results.
