Description
In classical General Relativity, there is a clear distinction between Coulombic charges - such as the Bondi mass - and radiative fluxes. Their relation is encoded in flux-balance laws. In this talk, I discuss the semiclassical version of flux-balance laws, including quantum backreaction. In particular, I show how the quantum-corrected mass reduces to the Ashtekar-Taveras-Varadarajan proposal in 1+1 dimensions, and illustrate its implications for black hole evaporation in 3+1 dimensions.
