Emission of fermions in little string theory

It is well-known that little string theory (LST) black holes radiate a purely thermal spectrum of scalar particles. This theory lives in a Hagedorn phase with a fixed Hagedorn temperature that does not depend on its mass. Therefore, the theory keeps a thermal profile even taking into account self-gravitating effects and the back-reaction of the metric. This has implications concerning the information loss paradox; one would not be able to recover any information from the LST black hole since the emission of scalar particles is totally uncorrelated. Several studies of the emission spectrum in LST concern scalar fields; it is our aim in this work to extend the study to the emission of fermions in order to verify that the most relevant conclusion for the scalar field remains valid for the fermions fields. Thus, we have calculated the emission probability, the flux, and also the greybody factor corresponding to a fermion field in LST background.

Back-reaction as a quantum correction

In this work we will show how the back-reaction can be treated as a quantum correction. The novel semi-classical approach presented here consists in the introduction of adequate quantum corrections into the r-t sector of the black hole metric. Thus, we will obtain corrected values for the temperature, entropy and emission rate, which at leading order coincide with the results in the tunneling frame. We have also applied this technique to the Little String Theory. Interestingly, we have found similar results for the entropy as using string one-loop calculations.

Some considerations about NS5 and LST Hawking radiation

We have studied the Hawking radiation corresponding to the NS5 and Little String Theory (LST) black hole models using two semi-classical methods: the complex path method and a gravitational anomaly. After summarizing some known concepts about the thermodynamics of these theories, we have computed the emission rates for the two black hole models. The temperature calculated from, e.g. the well-known surface gravity expression, is shown to be identical to that obtained from both the computation of the gravitational anomaly and the complex path method. Moreover, the two semi-classical methods show that NS5 exhibits non-thermal behavior that contrasts with the thermal behavior of LST. We remark that energy conservation is the key factor leading to a non-thermal profile for NS5. In contrast, LST keeps a thermal profile even when energy conservation is considered because temperature in this model does not depend on energy.
