Abstract
We consider the explicit asymptotic profile of massless Dirac fields on a Schwarzschild background. First, we prove for the spin components of the Dirac field a uniform bound of a positive definite energy and an integrated local energy decay estimate from a symmetric hyperbolic wave system. Based on these estimates, we further show that these components have globally pointwise decay as both an upper and a lower bound outside the black hole, with function finite and explicitly expressed in terms of the initial data and the coordinates. This establishes the validity of the conjectured Price's law for massless Dirac fields outside a Schwarzschild black hole.
