Black Holes and Scalar Fields : A study of a massive scalar field around a black hole

University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

Abstract: Black holes are one of the most interesting objects in the universe, and studying these objects should give exciting results. This research will investigate the General Theory of Relativity, explaining the essence of the theory needed for deriving solutions for a Schwarzschild black hole. This knowledge leads to deriving the equations of motion of a bosonic scalar field around a Schwarzschild black hole. Computing the dynamical evolution of that scalar field, and taking the limit far away from the black hole, gives an approximation derivation of the  Schrödinger equation. This study opens many doors to future research about black holes and scalar fields.
