Summary
Black holes have a memory. The more memories black holes store, the more stable they are. Moreover, the burden of the information they carry makes them more resistant to external influences—and directly affects their evolution. We call this the “swift memory burden-effect“ — a phenomenon that now gives research a unique opportunity to gain insights into the structure of these mysterious objects in the universe.
