Hawking-like radiation of charged particles via tunneling across the lightcylinder of a rotating magnetosphere

In rotating magnetospheres planted on compact objects, there usually exist lightcylinders (LC), beyond which the rotation speed of the magnetic field lines exceeds the speed of light.

Sumario:In rotating magnetospheres planted on compact objects, there usually exist lightcylinders (LC), beyond which the rotation speed of the magnetic field lines exceeds the speed of light. The LC is a close analog to the horizon in gravity, and is a casual boundary for charged particles that are restricted to move along the magnetic field lines. In this work, it is proposed that there should be Hawking-like radiation of charged particles from the LC of a rotating magnetosphere from the point of view of tunneling by using the field sheet metric.
