THERMODYNAMICS AND/OF HORIZONS: A COMPARISON OF SCHWARZSCHILD, RINDLER AND deSITTER SPACETIMES
The notions of temperature, entropy and ‘evaporation’, usually associated with spacetimes with horizons, are analyzed using general approach and the following results, applicable to different spacetimes, are obtained at one go. (i) The concept of temperature associated with the horizon is derived in a unified manner and is shown to arise from purely kinematic considerations. (ii) QFT near any h...
متن کاملHawking Radiation as Quantum Tunneling in Rindler Coordinate
We substantiate the Hawking radiation as quantum tunneling of fields or particles crossing the horizon by using the Rindler coordinate. The thermal spectrum detected by an accelerated particle is interpreted as quantum tunneling in the Rindler spacetime. Representing the spacetime near the horizon locally as a Rindler spacetime, we find the emission rate by tunneling, which is expressed as a co...
متن کاملInteraction of static classical source with Hawking radiation in Schwarzschild spacetime
We show that static sources coupled to a massless scalar field in Schwarzschild spacetime give rise to emission and absorption of zero-energy particles due to Current address Electronic address: [email protected] Electronic address: [email protected] Electronic address: [email protected] 1 the presence of Hawking radiation. This is in complete analogy with the descriptio...
متن کاملInteraction of Hawking radiation and a static electric charge
We investigate whether the equality found for the response of static scalar sources interacting (i) with Hawking radiation in Schwarzschild spacetime and (ii) with the Fulling-Davies-Unruh thermal bath in the Rindler wedge is maintained in the case of electric charges. We find a finite result in the Schwarzschild case, which is computed exactly, in contrast with the divergent result associated ...
متن کاملSchwarzschild black hole with a single exterior : How thermal is the Hawking radiation ?
Several approaches to Hawking radiation on the Schwarzschild spacetime rely in some way or another on the fact that the Kruskal manifold has two causally disconnected exterior regions. To assess the physical input implied by the presence of the second exterior region, we investigate the Hawking(-Unruh) effect for a real scalar field on the RP geon: an inextendible, globally hyperbolic, space an...
