By using a massless scalar field we examine the effect of an extra dimension on black hole radiation. As the equations are coupled, we find that the structure of the fifth dimension (as for membrane and induced-matter theory) affects the nature of the radiation observed in four-dimensional spacetime. In the case of the Schwarzschild–de Sitter solution embedded in a Randall–Sundrum brane model, the extension of the black hole along the fifth dimension looks like a black string. Then it is shown that, on the brane, the potential barrier surrounding the black hole has a quantized as well as a continuous spectrum. In principle, Hawking radiation may thus provide a probe for higher dimensions.

The Nariai black hole, whose two horizons are lying close to each other, is an extreme and important case in the research of black hole. In this paper we study the evolution of a massless scalar field scattered around in 5D Schwarzschild–de Sitter black string space. Using the method shown by Brevik and Simonsen (2001) we solve the scalar field equation as a boundary value problem, where real boundary condition is employed. Then with convenient replacement of the 5D continuous potential by square barrier, the reflection and transmission coefficients (R, T) are obtained. At last, we also compare the coefficients with the usual 4D counterpart.

Respecting that any consistent quantum field theory in curved space–time must include black hole radiation, in this paper, we examine the Krein–Gupta–Bleuler (KGB) formalism as an inevitable quantization scheme in order to follow the guideline of the covariance of minimally coupled massless scalar field and linear gravity on de Sitter (dS) background in the sense of Wightman–Gärding approach, by investigating thermodynamical aspects of black holes. The formalism is interestingly free of pathological large distance behavior. In this construction, also, no infinite term appears in the calculation of expectation values of the energy–momentum tensor (we have an automatic and covariant renormalization) which results in the vacuum energy of the free field to vanish. However, the existence of an effective potential barrier, intrinsically created by black holes gravitational field, gives a Casimir-type contribution to the vacuum expectation value of the energy–momentum tensor. On this basis, by evaluating the Casimir energy–momentum tensor for a conformally coupled massless scalar field in the vicinity of a nonrotating black hole event horizon through the KGB quantization, in this work, we explicitly prove that the hole produces black-body radiation which its temperature exactly coincides with the result obtained by Hawking for black hole radiation.

In this paper, we have studied a black hole in de Sitter space which has a conformally coupled scalar field in the background. This black hole is also known as the MTZ black hole. We have obtained exact values for the quasi-normal mode (QNM) frequencies under massless scalar field perturbations. We have demonstrated that when the black hole is near-extremal, that the wave equation for the massless scalar field simplifies to a Schrödinger type equation with the well-known Pöschl–Teller potential. We have also used sixth-order WKB approximation to compute QNM frequencies to compare with exact values obtained via the Pöschl–Teller method for comparison. As an application, we have obtained the area spectrum using modified Hods approach and show that it is equally spaced.

In this paper, we present a regular black hole with a positive cosmological constant. The regular black hole considered is the well known Bardeen black hole and it is a solution to the Einstein equations coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics with a magnetic monopole. The paper discusses the properties of the Bardeen–de Sitter black hole. We have computed the gray body factors and partial absorption cross-sections for massless scalar field impinges on this black hole with the third-order WKB approximation. A detailed discussion on how the behavior of the gray body factors depend on the parameters of the theory such as the mass, charge and the cosmological constant is given. Possible extensions of the work is discussed at the end of the paper.

Frequently in Physics, insights and conclusions can be drawn from simple, idealized models. The discovery of critical behavior in the gravitational collapse of a massless scalar field leads to the simulation of binary black holes, from its coalescence to merging and ringdown. We refined a toy model to explore black hole formation as these events unfold to revisit the instability of a gravitational kink. We confirmed a conjecture related to a mass gap for critical behavior at the threshold of black hole formation. We find a critical exponent twice the standard value. Surprisingly, this larger critical exponent is also present in the multiple critical behavior for the black hole formation from a massless scalar field in asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes. What is the meaning of this mass gap? Does it have physical relevance?

The purpose of this paper is to study quasinormal modes (QNMs) of a regular black hole with a cosmological constant due to scalar perturbations. A detailed study of QNMs frequencies for the massless scalar field was done by varying the parameters of the theory such as mass, magnetic charge, cosmological constant and the spherical harmonic index. We have employed the sixth-order WKB approximation to compute the QNMs frequencies. We have also proved analytically that the [Formula: see text] mode for the massless field reaches a constant value at late times. We have approximated the near-extreme regular-de Sitter (dS) black hole potential with the Pöschl–Teller potential to obtain exact frequencies. The null geodesics of the regular-de Sitter black hole is employed to describe the QNMs frequencies at the eikonal limit ([Formula: see text]).

In this paper, we examine massless scalar field by using unimodular [Formula: see text] theory. It is taken into account unimodular and cylindrically symmetric spacetime which provides convenience in researching black hole. The field equations in unimodular [Formula: see text] theory for given spacetime with massless scalar field and additional Bianchi identities are solved. Cylindrically symmetric anti-de Sitter (AdS)–Schwarzschild-like and AdS–Reissner–Nordström-like black hole spacetimes are achieved. Equations of motion are derived by using Hamiltonian. Orbits of massless test particles are depicted. Obtained line element asymptotically converges to dS/AdS spacetime. Weak and strong energy conditions of the massless scalar field are obtained with Raychaudhuri equations in unimodular [Formula: see text] theory. Also, stiff fluid interpretation of scalar field is reviewed.

The holographic principle has taught us that, as far as their entropy content is concerned, black holes in (3 + 1)-dimensional curved spacetimes behave as ordinary thermodynamic systems in flat (2 + 1)-dimensional spacetimes. In this paper, we point out that the opposite behavior can also be observed in black-hole physics. To show this we study the quantum Hawking evaporation of near-extremal Reissner–Nordström (RN) black holes. We first point out that the black-hole radiation spectrum departs from the familiar radiation spectrum of genuine (3 + 1)-dimensional perfect black-body emitters. In particular, the would be black-body thermal spectrum is distorted by the curvature potential which surrounds the black-hole and effectively blocks the emission of low-energy quanta. Taking into account the energy-dependent gray-body factors which quantify the imprint of passage of the emitted radiation quanta through the black-hole curvature potential, we reveal that the (3 + 1)-dimensional black holes effectively behave as perfect black-body emitters in a flat (9 + 1)-dimensional spacetime.
