* ABSTRACT
I first briefly review traditional ways to explain Hawking radiation. Second, I will explicitly show that black holes can emit thermal thin-shell instantons, where their probabilities only depend on the entropy differences between the final and the initial solution. From these observations, I conjecture that Hawking radiation is indeed a special limit of a more general class of instantons. This can be a new explanation for the origin of Hawking radiation and this new point of view will help to understand the information loss problem.
