Abstract

In this paper, using Hamilton-Jacobi method, we address the tunnelling of fermions in a 4-dimensional Schwarzschild spacetime. Based on the generalized uncertainty principle, we introduce the influence of quantum gravity. After solving the equation of motion of the spin-1/2 field, we derive the corrected Hawking temperature. It turns out that the correction depends not only on the black hole’s mass but also on the mass (energy) of emitted fermions. It is of interest that, in our calculation, the quantum gravity correction decelerates the temperature increase during the radiation explicitly. This observation then naturally leads to the remnants in black hole evaporation. Our calculation shows that the residue mass is <svg style="vertical-align:-4.74141pt;width:63.075001px;" id="M1" height="19.362499" version="1.1" viewBox="0 0 63.075001 19.362499" width="63.075001" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <g transform="matrix(.017,-0,0,-.017,.062,12.162)"><path id="x2273" d="M531 285l-474 -214v56l416 183l-416 184v56l474 -215v-50zM538 -11q-54 -70 -120 -70q-47 0 -137 43q-78 38 -108 38q-55 0 -91 -57l-31 33q51 74 122 74q45 0 137 -44q76 -37 108 -37q55 0 91 57z" /></g><g transform="matrix(.017,-0,0,-.017,14.749,12.162)"><path id="x1D440" d="M998 650l-8 -28q-71 -4 -86 -16t-22 -69l-50 -397q-3 -28 -4.5 -44t2 -29t6.5 -18.5t17 -10.5t24.5 -6.5t37.5 -3.5l-8 -28h-271l7 28q63 6 78 22t25 90l60 415h-2l-353 -552h-23l-130 536h-2l-70 -254q-44 -158 -47 -188q-5 -38 9 -51t71 -18l-6 -28h-241l8 28

Highlights

Hawking radiation is described as a quantum tunnelling effects of particles at horizons of black holes [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]
The noncommutative spacetimes bring a similar consequences in the spirit of black holes thermodynamics
In [16], the tunnelling process in the noncommutative Schwarzschild black holes was researched by Parikh-Wilczek tunnelling method. They derived an interesting result that information might be preserved by a stable black hole remnant

Summary

Introduction

Hawking radiation is described as a quantum tunnelling effects of particles at horizons of black holes [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]. With the consideration of the background variation in black hole evaporation, Parikh and Wilczek studied the tunnelling behaviors of massless scalar particles [3]. In [27], the tunnelling radiation in the noncommutative higher spacetime was discussed with GUP They found that information may be preserved in a stable black hole remnant. In [30], following Parikh-Wilczek tunnelling method, based on GUP, the radiation of massless scalar particles in the Schwarzschild black hole was discussed.
