| contents | Pure Lovelock black holes are geometrically more transparent than their Einstein counterparts, but they radiate far less. We compute scalar and higher-dimensional electromagnetic greybody factors and Hawking spectra on the critical branch $d=2N+2$, compare them with Schwarzschild--Tangherlini black holes at the same horizon radius $r_h$, and show that the smaller Hawking temperature overwhelms the enhanced transmission. In the benchmark $d=6$ case, the integrated scalar and electromagnetic powers are reduced by about $10^{-3}$ and $10^{-5}$, respectively. We also find a clean higher-curvature signature: as the Lovelock order $N$ grows, Hawking radiation becomes increasingly dominated by the scalar-type electromagnetic sector. |
