Abstract
We investigate the canonical quantization of the electromagnetic field on the Kerr background. We give new expressions for the expectation value of the electromagnetic stress-energy tensor in various vacua states and give a physical interpretation of the separate terms appearing in them. We numerically calculate the luminosity in these states. We also study the form of the renormalized stress-energy tensor close to the horizon when the electromagnetic field is in the past Boulware state.
