Quasiclassical mass spectrum of the black hole model with selfgravitating dust shell

Abstract

We consider a quantum mechanical black hole model introduced in {\it Phys.Rev.}, {\bf D57}, 1118 (1998) that consists of the selfgravitating dust shell. The Schroedinger equation for this model is a finite difference equation with the shift of the argument along the imaginary axis. Solving this equation in quasiclassical limit in complex domain leads to quantization conditions that define discrete quasiclassical mass spectrum. One of the quantization conditions is Bohr-Sommerfeld condition for the bound motion of the shell. The other comes from the requirement that the wave function is unambiguously defined on the Riemannian surface on which the coefficients of Schroedinger equation are regular. The second quantization condition remains valid for the unbound motion of the shell as well, and in the case of a collapsing null-dust shell leads to $m\sim\sqrt{k}$ spectrum.
