Abstract

Spherically symmetric solutions coupled to massive scalar particles in five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory are obtained. The solutions contain two event horizons. The inner horizon corresponds to the Schwarzschild black hole and the outer one is a new horizon which is produced by the massive scalar particles. It is found that the massive modes contribute an effective cosmological constant to the four-dimensional Einstein theory.
