Correction to Hawking radiation in nonsingular gravitational collapse

Recent studies have shown that quantum gravity introduces important corrections to the process of spherically symmetric gravitational collapse expected from general relativity. In particular, instead of falling into a central singularity, the collapsing body undergoes a bounce and eventually exits its Schwarzschild radius, and this entire process of collapse and rebound can occur in a single asymptotic region. In this paper, particle creation during such non-singular gravitational collapse is studied. It is shown that the probability of spontaneous emission of particles differs from the well-known probability of Hawking radiation from classical gravitational collapse. It is argued that the different result implies a deviation from thermality. Some arguments are also adduced concerning how the Hawking process during non-singular dust collapse could potentially remove shell crossing singularities.
