W. Kummer et al., COMMENT ON TRACE ANOMALY OF DILATON-COUPLED SCALARS IN 2 DIMENSIONS -ART. NO. 108501, Physical review. D. Particles and fields, 5810(10), 1998, pp. 8501
The trace anomaly for nonminimally coupled scalars in spherically redu
ced gravity obtained by Bousso and Hawking is incorrect. We explain th
e reasons for the deviations from our correct (published) result which
is supported by several other recent papers. [S0556-2821(98)03622-4].
