[edit] disputed

I say that a black hole can, and must, have another instrinsic property: gross coloral charge, taken from the stuff it's eaten. The quarks just don't disappear. lysdexia 19:26, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

  • this is nonsense. it can eat only eat up colour-neutral stuff because of confinement. I'm removing the tag.
Your reply is nonsense. I said gross, not net color. And respect the spellings of originators' terms: It's color, not colour. lysdexia 05:00, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Can you cite a source for this? Otherwise I think your objection approaches original research. I'm not sure that I understand what "gross" color means either. Threepounds 05:46, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
There's two signifigant things here, first of all this is an OR issue, and secondly 'gross' and 'net' don't apply in a black-hole anyway because of the holographic principal. I don't think anyone's ever done research into colour-charged black holes, probably because QCD and General Relativity make very little sense in the context of each other.

Agreed. It seems reasonable to me that tag be removed. Threepounds 16:34, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
I just realised lysdexia has been blocked indefinitely for trolling, and I don't think there's anything in it, so I'm going to go ahead and remove the tag. Tom 22:51, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] charge measurement

How does a black hole's charge manifest itself? How do you measure it? Will it attract oppositely charged particles preferentially?
