Specifically, we study the quantum dynamics of a probe particle bound to a Schwarzschild black hole using a phase-space representation of quantum mechanics. The analysis begins with a review of the covariant Wigner function in curved spacetime, highlighting its application to spherically symmetric, uncharged black holes. We then derive an effective potential from the Schwarzschild metric, which defines the Hamiltonian for the electron. Relativistic corrections are treated perturbatively to estimate energy levels and associated Wigner functions for the bound state. Additionally, we compare the results obtained through the Schr & ouml;dinger equation with those derived directly using the symplectic formalism, demonstrating the consistency and versatility of the phase-space approach. The study sheds light on quantum behavior near black holes and suggests new avenues for combining quantum kinetic theory with relativistic gravitational settings.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/journal article1434-6052https://doi.org/10.1140/epjc/s10052-025-14205-xhttps://link.springer.com/article/10.1140/epjc/s10052-025-14205-xopen access51Curved spacetimeField theoryFísica (Física)22 Física
