Condition for Superradiance in Higher-dimensional Rotating Black Holes

High Energy Physics - Theory 2010-11-19 v2 General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology

Abstract

It is shown that the superradiance modes always exist in the radiation by the (4+n)(4+n)-dimensional rotating black holes. Using a Bekenstein argument the condition for the superradiance modes is shown to be 0<ω<mΩ0 < \omega < m \Omega for the scalar, electromagnetic and gravitational waves when the spacetime background has a single angular momentum parameter about an axis on the brane, where Ω\Omega is a rotational frequency of the black hole and mm is an azimuthal quantum number of the radiated wave.
