Self-force on static charges in Schwarzschild spacetime

Abstract: We study the self forces acting on static scalar and electric test charges in the spacetime of a Schwarzschild black hole. The analysis is based on a direct, local calculation of the self forces via mode decomposition, and on two independent regularization procedures: A spatially-extended particle model method, and on a mode-sum regularization prescription. In all cases we find excellent agreement with the known exact results.
