We consider a gravitational analogue of the Schwinger effect in a cosmological context. While the Schwinger effect is usually attributed to a static electric background, its derivation is actually based on a switching on/off of the electric…

The entropy produced by the Unruh radiation is estimated and compared to the entropy of a Schwarzschild black hole. We simulate a spherical system of mass $ M $ by set of Unruh horizons and estimate the total entropy of the outgoing…

I consider the problem of reconciling "tunneling" approaches to black-hole radiation with the treatment by quantum field theory in curved space-time. It is not possible to do this completely, but using what appears to be the most direct and…

We investigate the spontaneous pair production, including the Schwinger mechanism and the Hawking thermal radiation, of charged scalar particles from the near horizon region of a (near) extremal Reissner-Nordstr\"om black hole. The paradigm…

We analyze the entanglement of a Schwinger pair created by a time-dependent pulse. In the semi-classical approximation, the pair creation by a pulse of external electric field is captured by a periodic worldline instanton. At strong gauge…

We present a new avenue to black hole evaporation using a heat-kernel approach analogous as for the Schwinger effect. Applying this method to an uncharged massless scalar field in a Schwarzschild spacetime, we show that spacetime curvature…

We study the black hole particle production in a regular spacetime metric obtained in a minisuperspace approach to loop quantum gravity. In different previous papers the static solution was obtained and shown to be singularity-free and…
