Bekenstein bounds and inequalities between size, charge, angular momentum, and energy for bodies

Abstract

Bekenstein bounds for the entropy of a body imply a universal inequality between size, energy, angular momentum, and charge. We prove this inequality in electromagnetism. We also prove it, for the particular case of zero angular momentum, in general relativity. We further discuss the relation of these inequalities with inequalities between size, angular momentum, and charge recently studied in the literature.
