Abstract

We study the analytic structure of the S-matrix which is obtained from the reduced Wheeler-DeWitt wave function describing spherically symmetric gravitational collapse of massless scalar fields. The simple poles in the S-matrix occur in the Euclidean spacetime, and the Euclidean Wheeler-DeWitt equation is a variant of the Calogero models, which is discussed in connection with conformal mechanics and a quantum instanton.
