arXiv:hep-th/0409231 · doi:10.1142/S0218271804006437
Abstract
A brief review on virtual black holes is presented, with special emphasis on phenomenologically relevant issues like their influence on scattering or on the specific heat of (real) black holes. Regarding theoretical topics results important for (avoidance of) information loss are summarized.
