Area spectrum of the d-dimensional Reissner-Nordstrom black hole in the small charge limit

TL;DR

This paper calculates the quantized area spectrum of d-dimensional Reissner-Nordstrom black holes in the small charge limit, based on modified Hod's conjecture involving quasinormal frequencies.

Contribution

It extends the area spectrum analysis to higher-dimensional charged black holes using Maggiore's modifications to Hod's conjecture.

Findings

Derived the area spectrum for d-dimensional Reissner-Nordstrom black holes.

Confirmed the validity of the modified Hod's conjecture in this context.

Provided insights into quantum properties of charged black holes.

Abstract

A conjecture by Hod states that for the black hole horizon the spacing of its area spectrum is determined by the asymptotic value of its quasinormal frequencies. Recently to overcome some difficulties, Maggiore proposes some changes to the original Hod's conjecture. Taking into account the modifications proposed by Maggiore we calculate the area spectrum of the d-dimensional Reissner-Nordstrom black hole in the small charge limit.
