  We study a massless scalar field propagating in the background of a
five-dimensional rotating black hole. We showed that in the Myers-Perry metric
describing such a black hole the massless field equation allows the separation
of variables. The obtained angular equation is a generalization of the equation
for spheroidal functions. The radial equation is similar to the radial
Teukolsky equation for the 4-dimensional Kerr metric. We use these results to
quantize the massless scalar field in the space-time of the 5-dimensional
rotating black hole and to derive expressions for energy and angular momentum
fluxes from such a black hole.
