  We perform a comprehensive study of the emission of massive scalar fields by
a higher-dimensional, simply rotating black hole both in the bulk and on the
brane. We derive approximate, analytic results as well as exact numerical ones
for the absorption probability, and demonstrate that the two sets agree very
well in the low and intermediate-energy regime for scalar fields with mass
m_\Phi < 1 TeV in the bulk and m_\Phi < 0.5 TeV on the brane. The numerical
values of the absorption probability are then used to derive the Hawking
radiation power emission spectra in terms of the number of extra dimensions,
angular-momentum of the black hole and mass of the emitted field. We compute
the total emissivities in the bulk and on the brane, and demonstrate that,
although the brane channel remains the dominant one, the bulk-over-brane energy
ratio is considerably increased (up to 33%) when the mass of the emitted field
is taken into account.
