Abstract

In this letter, we study the self-force in the Parikh-Wilczek tunneling model of Hawking radiation for Reissner-Nordstroem black holes. We conclude that the repulsive self-force speeds up the emission and the radiation becomes an irreversible process. We also find an upper bound of charge-mass ratio for emitted particles.
