Hawking Radiation of Linear Dilaton Black Holes in Various Theories

Using the Damour-Ruffini-Sannan, the Parikh-Wilczek and the thin film brick-wall models, we investigate the Hawking radiation of uncharged massive particles from 4-dimensional linear dilaton black holes, which are the solutions to Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton, Einstein-Yang-Mills-Dilaton and Einstein-Yang-Mills-Born-Infeld-Dilaton theories. Our results show that the tunneling rate is related to the change of Bekenstein-Hawking entropy. Contrary to the many studies in the literature, here the emission spectrum is precisely thermal. This implies that the derived emission spectrum is not consistent with the unitarity of the quantum theory, which would possibly lead to the information loss.
