Hawking radiation of unparticles

Abstract

Unparticle degrees of freedom, no matter how weakly coupled to the standard model particles, must affect the evolution of a black hole, which thermally decays into all available degrees of freedom. We develop a method for calculating the grey-body factors for scalar unparticles for 3+1 and higher dimensional black holes. We find that the power emitted in unparticles may be quite different from the power emitted in ordinary particles. Depending on the parameters in the model, unparticles may become the dominant channel. This is of special interest for small primordial black holes and also in models with low scale quantum gravity where the experimental signature may significantly be affected. We also discuss the sensitivity of the results on the (currently unknown) unparticle normalization.

Calculations for different normalization of unparticles included, discussion expanded, version published in Phys. Rev. D
