One question I have for LQG's derivation of BH entropy is this:
would any arbitrarily enclosed sphere in space, whether it's that of the surface of planet earth, or the moon, or the sun, not to mention BH's also have the same BH entropy since as I understand the calculation, it is merely counting spin network microstates on the surface of a black hole, but couldn't this also apply to any enclosed sphere? I understand that it is not volume extensive entropy but only surface entropy.
As for string theory, is the computation of bh entropy include the volume of the BH? Why hasn't it been able to reproduce Hawking results for ordinary astrophysical BH's if string theory is indeed a theory of QG.
