Abstract:
It is proposed that a large Schwarzschild
black hole is a bound state of highly excited,
long, closed strings at the Hagedorn
temperature. It is further proposed that the
effective free-energy density of the bound
state should be expressed as a function of
its entropy density in analogy with that of a
collapsed living polymer which is expressed
in terms of the monomer concentration.
Using the effective free energy, I will derive
scaling relations for the entropy, energy and
size of the bound state and show that these
agree with the scaling relations of the BH; in
particular, with the area law for the BH
entropy. The area law originates from the
inverse scaling of the effective temperature
with the bound-state radius.
