Fischler-Susskind mechanism
Encyclopedia
The Fischler-Susskind mechanism, first proposed by Willy Fischler
and Leonard Susskind
in 1998 , is a holographic prescription based on the particle horizon. "The Fischler–Susskind prescription is used to obtain the maximum number of degrees of freedom per Planck volume at the Planck era
compatible with the holographic principle."
