Quasibound States, Stability and Wave Functions of the Test Fields in the Consistent 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Gravity (2107.02065v2)

Abstract: We examine the interaction between quantum test particles and the gravitational field generated by a black hole solution that was recently obtained in the consistent 4-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. While quasinormal modes of scalar, electromagnetic, and Dirac fields have been recently studied in this theory, there is no such study for the quasibound states. Here, we calculate the spectrum of quasibound states for the test fields in a spherically symmetric and asymptotically flat black hole solution in the consistent 4-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. The quasispectrum of resonant frequencies is obtained by using the polynomial condition associated to the general Heun functions. We also discuss the stability of the systems for some values of the Gauss-Bonnet coupling constant.
