Massive Radiation via Tunneling in a BTZ Black Hole

Abstract

Hawking radiation can usefully be viewed as a semi-classical tunneling process that originates at the black hole horizon. Massive radiation from a BTZ black hole is investigated. The conservation of energy implies the effect of self-gravitation. Viewed as a tunneling process, the emission spectrum derivates from the pure thermal spectrum, but it is consistent with an underlying unitary theory. The result is the same as that of massless particles.
