Hawking temperature from tunnelling formalism

High Energy Physics - Theory 2008-11-26 v3 General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology

Abstract

It has recently been suggested that the attempt to understand Hawking radiation as tunnelling across black hole horizons produces a Hawking temperature double the standard value. It is explained here how one can obtain the standard value in the same tunnelling approach.
