Full text Open access: Green Metadata (CSL-JSON)
DOI 10.1139/p2012-078
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

In this paper, following the simple proposal by He and Ma for quantization of a black hole (BH) using Bohr’s method, we discuss the solvability of the wave equation for such a BH. We consequentially solve the associated Schrödinger equation. The eigenfunction problem reduces to the HeunB, H(α, β, γ, δ; z), differential equation, which is a natural generalization of the hypergeometric differential equation. We investigate some physical properties of the wavefunction. We then obtain the expectation value of the kinetic and the potential energies, using Hellmann–Feynman theorem. Our work introduces some new applications of the Heun function.
