Radiation from the extremal black holes

The radiation from extreme Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m black holes is computed by explicitly considering the collapse of a spherical charged shell. No neutral scalar radiation is found but there is emission of charged particles, provided the charge to mass ratio be different from one. The absence of thermal effects is in accord with the predictions of the euclidean theory but since the body emits charged particles the entropy issue is not the same as for eternal extreme black holes.
