The reflection and absorption, by the charged spherically symmetric Reissner-Nordström black hole, of an arbitrary superposition of gravitational and electromagnetic waves, with time dependence e iot and analyzed into spherical harmonics of various orders l , are expressed in terms of the complex reflection and transmission amplitudes (for incident waves) by two one-dimensional potential barriers. These amplitudes, expressed in terms of eight quantities (and composing the scattering matrix), are tabulated for various values of o,l (= 2, 3, and 6) and charge of the black hole. By virtue of the coupling of electromagnetic and gravitational perturbations by the charge of the black hole, the energy in an incident wave, which is purely gravitational, is, in part, reflected as electromagnetic waves; and conversely. This transformation of incident gravitational energy into electromagnetic energy (and vice versa) is expressed in terms of a conversion factor C and plotted in a series of graphs as a function of o for various values of l and the charge on the black hole Q * . Finally, the complex frequencies belonging to the quasi-normal modes (i.e., solutions of the underlying wave equations which correspond to purely outgoing waves at infinity and purely ingoing waves at the horizon) are tabulated. It is found that the imaginary part of these frequencies (which determine the damping of arbitrary initial perturbations of the black hole) is very nearly the same for all modes (with different l ’s) and Q * .

By generalizing the method of I. Brevik et al. the scalar field equation between the outer black hole horizon and the cosmological horizon in the extreme Reissner–Nordström–de Sitter (RNdS) geometry is solved. The field amplitude, as well as the potential, is shown graphically by introducing the "tangent" approximation, which is more exact than that used by I. Brevik et al., of the tortoise coordinate. There are two limiting cases of our special interest. The first one is when the cosmological horizon is very close to the outer horizon of the "black hole." The second one is when they are far apart. And the reflection and transmission coefficients are worked out in the two cases respectively.

The charged 2-D black hole is visualized as presenting a potential barrier Vout(r*) to incoming tachyon wave. Since this takes the complicated form, an approximate form VAPP(r*) is used for scattering analysis. We calculate the reflection and transmission coefficients for scattering of tachyon off the charged 2-D black hole. The Hawking temperature is also derived from the reflection coefficient by Bogoliubov transformation. In the limit Q→0, we recover the Hawking temperature of the 2-D dilaton black hole.

Parabolas have been observed in the reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) patterns from surfaces of single crystals since the early thirties. In the last decade there has been a revival of attempts to elucidate the origin of these surface parabolas. The renewed interest stems from the need to understand the connection between the parabolas and the surface resonance (channeling) condition, the latter being routinely used to obtain higher intensity in reflection electron microscopy (REM) images of surfaces. Several rather diverging descriptions have been proposed to explain the parabolas in the reflection and transmission Kikuchi patterns. Recently we have developed an unifying general treatment in which the parabolas are shown to be K-lines of two-dimensional lattices. Here we want to review the main features of this description and present an experimental diffraction pattern from a 30° MgO (111) surface which displays parabolas that can be attributed to the surface reconstruction.
