What is black hole made out of and what does a black hole "experience"?

[paultrr]

Thought that might help clarify things a bit here. An accelerated observer has a simular event horizon. From that horizon one gets something known as Unruh radiation. That horizon is an artifact of C and the craft's own aceleration. It too is not a real surface. Its an observational boundary is all.

Sadly Unruh radiation is not known to me! Perhaps you could give references, or an explanation.

It was shown by Unruh and by Paul Davies that an accelerating detector will experience a Planckian-like heat bath. W.G. Unruh Phys. Rev., D: 14 (1976) 870 would be about the best. However, if you can get a copy of Lee Smolin's Book, Three Roads to Quantum Gravity, there is a good explination of this effect in that book.
