Were you inclined to submit a thesis on Hawking radiation being an/the answer to the information paradox, how would you present this and how would it be reviewed?
First read up on the information paradox – lots of information falls in but it gets lost on the way to the centre. Then read Susskind’s solution to the information paradox. Then compare that with other proposed solutions to the information paradox, such as the fuzzball.
In fact, almost certainly the best introduction is this youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xs_4tDnMKl4 . Warning, it’s long.
