Hawking radiation originates from a "quantum atmosphere" around black holes, not necessarily from the vicinity of the horizon. We examine and discuss the properties of quantum atmospheres of asymptotically flat Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes, which extends further and further away from the black hole as extremality is approached, though arguably it becomes indistinguishable from normal vacuum fluctuation at spatial infinity. In addition, following our previous findings on re-writing the Hawking temperature of a Kerr black hole in terms of a "spring constant", we generalize the same notion to the Reissner-Nordstr\"om case, which allows us to put a minimum size on the location where Hawking particles can be emitted near a black hole, which agrees with the stretched horizon.

  1. Quantum Scattering in Schwarzschild Spacetime: Hawking Radiation and Black Hole Atmospheres

    hep-th 2026-07 reject novelty 4.0

    The paper derives a Bose-Einstein emission rate at the Hawking temperature and an atmosphere radius rAtm = 4 ln2 r_s from antibound poles of the Schwarzschild S-matrix, but the derivation is not self-consistent.
