Black holes as cold as Inferno?
There is a lot of great astrophysics now available for casual readers and viewers like me, and it is fun to speculate and cross reference ideas. The episode of the Universe (History Channel) on black holes describes that at some point matter that gets too close is stretched, rotated, and heated into a plasma around the black hole. This process is speculated to also occur inside the event horizon around the singularity.
Could tidal forces and the warped space around the singularity form a system where radiation dissapates outward, not escaping from inside the event horizon, but escaping away from the singularity as matter is stretched inward? As matter approaches the singularity it loses all its motional energy and the singularity itself becomes a Bose–Einstein condensate. From watching the Nova (PBS) episode on Bose–Einstein condensate, matter in such a state loses its particle nature and behaves as overlapping waves. Perhaps the singularity is not a point of collapsed particles, but a point of overlapping waves of matter. As waves, would the singularity better achieve super compression?
If particles can be compressed experimental in a Bose-Einstein condensate using laboratory methods, and if the results of such a compression where high enough, then maybe it could give insight into the formation of the singularity and quantum gravity.
