Vacuum polarization of the quantized massive scalar field in the global monopole spacetime II: the renormalized quantum stress energy tensor
arXiv:1904.09861 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.99.125007
Abstract
This paper is devoted to the construction of the renormalized quantum stress energy tensor for a massive scalar field with arbitrary coupling to the gravitational field of a pointlike global monopole, using the Schwinger-DeWitt approximation, up to second order in the inverse mass of the field. The given stress energy tensor is constructed by functional differentiation with respect to the metric tensor of the one-loop effective action of sufficiently massive scalar field, such that the Compton length of the quantum field is much less than the characteristic radius of the curvature of the background geometry. The results are obtained for a general curvature coupling parameter , and specified to the more physical cases of minimal and conformal coupling, showing that in this specific cases, the quantum massive scalar field in the global monopole spacetime violates all the pointwise energy conditions.
