PY - 2020 DA - 2020// TI - Method to compute the stress-energy tensor for a quantized scalar field when a black hole forms from the collapse of a null shell T2 - Phys. Rev. D JO - Physical Review D SP - 125035 EP - 26pp VL - 102 IS - 12 PB - Amer Physical Soc AB - A method is given to compute the stress-energy tensor for a massless minimally coupled scalar field in a spacetime where a black hole forms from the collapse of a spherically symmetric null shell in four dimensions. Part of the method involves matching the modes for the in vacuum state to a complete set of modes in Schwarzschild spacetime. The other part involves subtracting from the unrenormalized expression for the stress-energy tensor when the field is in the in vacuum state, the corresponding expression when the field is in the Unruh state and adding to this the renormalized stress-energy tensor for the field in the Unruh state. The method is shown to work in the two-dimensional case where the results are known.
