Abstract
Hawking radiation viewed as a semiclassical tunneling process of particles from the event horizon of general static black holes is investigated by taking the back-reaction of the emitted particles into account. In a general static spacetime, the emission rates of massless, massive and massive charged particles are computed respectively and the tunneling probabilities are obtained. Our results show that when energy and charge conservation are incorporated into the radiation process, the emission rate of the tunneling particles is related to changes of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropies of the black hole before and after the emission, thus it is consistent with an underlying unitary theory. The present results are obtained in a general way, no matter what the special static metric function is, and hence a generalization for the results found in the literature is given. Some remarks on the tunneling method are presented.
