  • 1. Kaiserslautern Univ. (Germany, F.R.). Fachbereich Physik

Description

The calculation of the vacuum expectation value of the stress-energy tensor for the Hartle-Hawking vacuum in Schwarzschild spacetime is performed using the Hadamard formalism. The aim is to demonstrate exemplary advantages of the Hadamard formalism compared with the Christensen geodesic point separation method. (Author)
