Method to compute the stress-energy tensor for the massless spin12field in a general static spherically symmetric spacetime

Abstract: A method for computing the stress-energy tensor for the quantized, massless, spin 1 2 field in a general static spherically symmetric spacetime is presented. The field can be in a zero temperature state or a non-zero temperature thermal state. An expression for the full renormalized stress-energy tensor is derived. It consists of a sum of two tensors both of which are conserved. One tensor is written in terms of the modes of the quantized field and has zero trace. In most cases it must be computed numerically.… Show more

“…In the Schwarzschild geometry we have good understanding of the stress-energy tensor of the quantized massive and massless fields in the Boulware, Unruh and Hartle-Hawking states. Specifically, due to excellent numerical work we have results that may be considered as exact [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]. On the other hand, analytical [9,10,11,12] and semi-analytical [13,14,15,16,17,18] approximations have been constructed and successfully applied in numerous physically interesting cases.…”

“…The bi-vector and bi-spinor of parallel transport are introduced into the above expression so that the Feynman propagator and its derivatives are correctly evaluated at x [13]. The definition (20) differs from the canonical expression by a term proportional to g λ ν L , where L is the Dirac Lagrangian.…”
