The main aim of this paper is twofold. (1) Exact solutions of a scalar field in the Schwarzschild spacetime are presented. The exact wave functions of scattering states and bound-states are presented. Besides the exact solution, we also provide expli cit approximate expressions for bound-state eigenvalues and scattering phase shifts. (2) By virtue of the exact solutions, we give a direct calculation for the discontinuous jump on the horizon for massive scalar fields, while in literature such a jump is obtained from an asymptotic solution by an analytic extension treatment.
Using Leavers continue fraction and time domain method, we study the wave dynamics of phantom scalar perturbation in a Schwarzschild black string spacetime. We find that the quasinormal modes contain the imprint from the wavenumber $k$ of the fifth d imension. The late-time behaviors are dominated by the difference between the wavenumber $k$ and the mass $mu$ of the phantom scalar perturbation. For $k<mu$, the phantom scalar perturbation in the late-time evolution grows with an exponential rate as in the four-dimensional Schwarzschild black hole spacetime. While, for $k=mu$, the late-time behavior has the same form as that of the massless scalar field perturbation in the background of a black hole. Furthermore, for $k>mu$, the late-time evolution of phantom scalar perturbation is dominated by a decaying tail with an oscillation which is consistent with that of the usual massive scalar field. Thus, the Schwarzschild black string is unstable only against the phantom scalar perturbations which satisfy the wavelength $lambda>2pi/mu$. These information can help us know more about the wave dynamics of phantom scalar perturbation and the properties of black string.
The Lorentzian distance formula, conjectured several years ago by Parfionov and Zapatrin, has been recently proved by the second author. In this work we focus on the derivation of an equivalent expression in terms of the geometry of 2-spinors by usin g a partly original approach due to the first author. Our calculations clearly show the independence of the algebraic distance formula of the observer.
The Averaged Null Energy Condition (ANEC) states that the integral along a complete null geodesic of the projection of the stress-energy tensor onto the tangent vector to the geodesic cannot be negative. ANEC can be used to rule out spacetimes with e xotic phenomena, such as closed timelike curves, superluminal travel and wormholes. We prove that ANEC is obeyed by a minimally-coupled, free quantum scalar field on any achronal null geodesic (not two points can be connected with a timelike curve) surrounded by a tubular neighborhood whose curvature is produced by a classical source. To prove ANEC we use a null-projected quantum inequality, which provides constraints on how negative the weighted average of the renormalized stress-energy tensor of a quantum field can be. Starting with a general result of Fewster and Smith, we first derive a timelike projected quantum inequality for a minimally-coupled scalar field on flat spacetime with a background potential. Using that result we proceed to find the bound of a quantum inequality on a geodesic in a spacetime with small curvature, working to first order in the Ricci tensor and its derivatives. The last step is to derive a bound for the null-projected quantum inequality on a general timelike path. Finally we use that result to prove achronal ANEC in spacetimes with small curvature.
In this research note we introduce a new approximation of photon geodesics in Schwarzschild spacetime which is especially useful to describe highly bent trajectories, for which the angle between the initial emission position and the line of sight to the observer approaches $pi$: this corresponds to the points behind the central mass of the Schwarzschild metric with respect to the observer. The approximation maintains very good accuracy overall, with deviations from the exact numerical results below $1%$ up to the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) located at $6~GM/c^2$.
