Description

We give a higher-spin generalization of the anomaly method for the Hawking radiation from black holes. In the paper [S. Iso, T. Morita, and H. Umetsu, arXiv:0710.0453.] higher-spin generalizations of the gauge (and gravitational) anomalies in d=2 were obtained. By applying these anomalies to black hole physics, we derive the higher moments of the Hawking fluxes. We also give a higher-spin generalization of the trace anomaly method by Christensen and Fulling [S. Christensen and S. Fulling, Phys. Rev. D 15, 2088 (1977).]
