Scalar self-force on static charge in a long throat

Abstract

We compute the self-force on a scalar charge at rest in the spacetime of long throat. We consider arbitrary values of the mass of the scalar field and the constant of nonmnimal coupling of the scalar field to the curvature of spacetime. We also show the coincidence of explicit calculations of self-force in the limit of large mass of the field with known results.
