Abstract
In terms of the complex angular momentum method, we compute the absorption cross section by analyzing a massless test scalar field around conformally related black holes. At first, we investigate circular null geodesics and thereby prove a precondition for calculating the absorption cross section in the context of conformally related black holes. Then we use the WKB approximation method to derive the analytic expression of Regge frequency and the oscillation part of absorption cross sections. We find that this oscillation part depends on the scale factor of conformal transformations. By taking the conformally related Schwarzschild-Tangherlini black hole as an example, we show that this regular black hole has substantially distinctive absorption behavior compared with singular black holes. Our result provides a new approach to distinguish a regular black hole from a singular one.
