On the mechanism of Hawking radiation (Q1576103): Difference between revisions

Ever since the appearance, a quarter of a century ago, of the important research results of Stephen Hawking, the work around Hawking radiation has given rise to several extensive publications. However, the exact inner details of the mechanism of this special phenomenon are yet to be revealed at length. The paper under review is a bold attempt to extend the authors' original contributions for solutions inside and outside the black hole horizon. The gravitational model of spherically symmetric gravity with a self-gravitating thin dust shell is studied. Among the classical solutions are seen space-time manifolds with different geometries. Quantum mechanics of self-gravitating particles without mass is developed. A quasi-classical wave function as solution of the radial relativistic Schrödinger equation on null-dust shell is obtained. The Hawking radiation spectrum relating the in and out -- amplitudes, black hole horizon area and Planck length is derived from which the black hole temperature and entropy could be arrived at. The reference list has 22 entries helping thus for a quick grasp of the required background and correct connections of the present work with others.
