Emission of fermions in little string theory

Abstract

It is well-known that little string theory (LST) black holes radiate a purely thermal spectrum of scalar particles. This theory lives in a Hagedorn phase with a fixed Hagedorn temperature that does not depend on its mass. Therefore, the theory keeps a thermal profile even taking into account self-gravitating effects and the back-reaction of the metric. This has implications concerning the information loss paradox; one would not be able to recover any information from the LST black hole since the emission of scalar particles is totally uncorrelated. Several studies of the emission spectrum in LST concern scalar fields; it is our aim in this work to extend the study to the emission of fermions in order to verify that the most relevant conclusion for the scalar field remains valid for the fermions fields. Thus, we have calculated the emission probability, the flux, and also the greybody factor corresponding to a fermion field in LST background.
