Hawking radiation by effective two-dimensional theories

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-31 v1 General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology

Abstract

Recently proposed 2D anomaly induced effective actions for the matter-gravity system are critically reviewed. Their failure to correctly reproduce Hawking's black hole radiation or the stability of Minkowski space-time led us to a modification of the relevant ``quantum'' matter stress energy tensor that allows physically meaningful results to be extracted.
