Resonance scattering and the passage to bound states in the field of near-black-hole objects

Resonance scattering and the passage to bound states in the field of near-black-hole objects

We examine the spectrum of a massive scalar particle interacting with the strong gravitational field of a static, spherically symmetric object which is not quite massive enough to be a black hole. As was found in the case of massless particles, there exists a dense spectrum of long lived resonances …
