Hawk02-A@1#eq:schwarzschild, Hawk02-A@1#eq:radial

Back to manuscript

The comparison object is a massless, minimally coupled real scalar on the Schwarzschild exterior,

with normalized at asymptotic infinity. The state is Unruh-type: no incoming occupation from past null infinity and the specified affine-vacuum horizon boundary condition.

For this comparison,

The scalar radial problem is

with . Its transmission probability is .

The fixed-background Hawking comparison and emission-rate calculations are supplied by Hawking and Page Hawking1975,Page1976. The particular boundary-current and packet conventions used in the corpus are recorded in Em03-A CheungEm03A ({thm:main}).
