  In a previous paper we studied the collapse of a spherically symmetric dust
distribution (marginally bound LTB) in d-dimensional AdS spacetime and obtained
the condition for the formation of trapped surfaces. Here we extend the
analysis by giving the canonical theory for the same and subsequently quantize
the system by solving the Wheeler-DeWitt equation. We show that for the case of
small dust perturbations around a black hole the wave functionals so obtained
describe an AdS-Schwarzschild black hole in equilibrium with a thermal bath at
Hawking temperature and show the non-trivial dependence of this temperature on
the number of spacetime dimensions and the cosmological constant.
