Deriving the Hawking Temperature of (Massive) Global Monopole Spacetime via a Topological Formula

Abstract:
In this work, we study the Hawking temperature of the global monopole spacetime (non-spherical symmetrical black hole) based on the topological method proposed by Robson, Villari, and Biancalana (RVB). By connecting the Hawking temperature with the topological properties of black holes, the Hawking temperature of the global monopole spacetime can be obtained by the RVB method. We also discuss the Hawking temperature in massive gravity, and find that the effect of the mass term cannot be ignored in the calculation of the Hawking temperature; the corrected Hawking temperature in massive gravity can be derived by adding an integral constant, which can be determined by the standard definition.

The minimum speed required to launch a projectile from the surface of an object to which it is gravitationally bound so that it eventually escapes the object’s gravitational field is called the escape velocity. The escape velocity is independent of the mass of the object. Merging the idea of escape...
