Abstract
The problem of finding solutions to the Klein–Gordon equation for a free massive real scalar field in the spacetime of spherically symmetric black holes is considered. It is shown that the radial part of this equation can be reduced to the form of a confluent Heun equation. Physically adequate solutions to this equation expressed through confluent Heun functions are found and their normalizations are calculated. A doubling, compared to the case of the Minkowski space, of the number of physically adequate solutions with energy greater than that of the particle mass has been observed.
期刊介绍:
The journal Fizika Elementarnykh Chastits i Atomnogo Yadr of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR, Dubna) was founded by Academician N.N. Bogolyubov in August 1969. The Editors-in-chief of the journal were Academician N.N. Bogolyubov (1970–1992) and Academician A.M. Baldin (1992–2001). Its English translation, Physics of Particles and Nuclei, appears simultaneously with the original Russian-language edition. Published by leading physicists from the JINR member states, as well as by scientists from other countries, review articles in this journal examine problems of elementary particle physics, nuclear physics, condensed matter physics, experimental data processing, accelerators and related instrumentation ecology and radiology.
