(They use the phrase Schwarzschild horizon, which is a combination of the term above and the Schwartzchild radius, which describes the radius necessary for a black hole to form from a given chunk of stuff) falls apart.

These black holes are often referred to as Schwarzschild black holes after the physicist Karl Schwarzschild who discovered this solution in 1915. [

For any given body, this critical stage of unavoidable collapse occurs when the object has collapsed to within its so-called Schwarzschild radius, which is proportional to the mass of the body.

The Schwarzschild is the closest analogue in a Newtonian universe (in which black holes don't exist, remember) to the surface of the black hole, and is referred to as its size (as opposed to mass) in most sources I have seen.

Fortunately, this simple Newtonion equation can be used to describe the radius of a black hole, also known as the Schwarzschild radius (technically, this equation is only perfectly accurate for non-rotating black holes, but it’s close enough in most cases).

In an ordinary uncharged ( "Schwarzschild") black hole, there is a single horizon, corresponding to the point of no return - once you pass the event horizon, you can never escape back to the rest of the world.
