Black Hole Entropy
reviews
The entropy of black holes: a primer
by Thibault Damour (hep-th/0401160, 51 pages, 4 figures)
Microscopic Formulation of Black Holes in String Theory
by Justin R. David, Gautam Mandal, Spenta R. Wadia (hep-th/0203048, 166 pages, 4 figures)
The authors review the calculation of black-hole properties from string theory for the case
of the nearly-extreme D1-D5 black hole. Many important details of the D-brane gauge and conformal field theories are discussed, leading to black-hole thermodynamics and Hawking radiation.
