Description

In an earlier paper, we obtained exact solutions of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation for the Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi model of gravitational collapse, employing a lattice regularization. In this paper, we derive Hawking radiation in nonmarginally bound models from our exact solutions. We show that a nonvanishing energy function does not spoil the (approximate) Planck spectrum near the horizon. We can also reliably compute corrections to the Bogoliubov coefficient because our solutions are exact. The corrections are obtained by going beyond the near-horizon region and are shown to introduce additional greybody factors, which modify the blackbody spectrum of radiation from the black hole
