Influence of Rotation on the Amount of Phantom Matter around wormholes
Static (spherically symmetrical) and stationary solutions for wormholes are
considered. The visibility horizon, which characterizes the differences between
black holes and passing wormholes, is determined in an invariant way. It is
shown that the rotation of wormholes does not affect the amount of phantom
matter that surrounds them.Comment: 6 pages, 3 table
Is There a Relationship between the Density of Primordial Black Holes in a Galaxy and the Rate of Cosmological Gamma-Ray Bursts?
The rate of accretion of matter from a solar-type star onto a primordial
black hole (PBH) that passes through it is calculated. The probability that a
PBH is captured into an orbit around a star in a galaxy is found. The mean
lifetime of the PBH in such an orbit and the rate of orbital captures of PBHs
in the galaxy are calculated. It is shown that this rate does not depend on the
mass of the PBH. This mechanism cannot make an appreciable contribution to the
rate of observed gamma-ray bursts. The density of PBHs in the galaxy can reach
a critical value - the density of the mass of dark matter in the galaxy.Comment: 7 page
Primordial black holes and asteroid danger
Probability for a primordial black hole to invade the Kuiper belt was
calculated. We showed that primordial black holes of certain masses can
significantly change asteroids' orbits. These events may result in disasters,
local for our solar system and global for the Earth (like the Tunguska
meteorite). We also estimated how often such events occur.Comment: 5 page
Unipolar Induction of a Magnetized Accretion Disk around a Black Hole
The structure and magnitude of the electromagnetic field produced by a
rotating accretion disk around a black hole were determined. The disk matter is
assumed to be a magnetized plasma with a frozenin poloidal magnetic field. The
vacuum approximation is used outside the disk.Comment: 7 pages, 1 figure
An Induction Accelerator of Cosmic Rays on the Axis of an Accretion Disk
The structure and magnitude of the electric field created by a rotating
accretion disk with a poloidal magnetic field is found for the case of a vacuum
approximation along the axis. The accretion disk is modeled as a torus filled
with plasma and the frozen-in magnetic field. The dimensions and location of
the maximum electric field are found, as well as the energy of the accelerated
particles. The gravitational field is assumed to be weak.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
General-Relativistic Curvature of Pulsar Vortex Structure
The motion of a neutron superfluid condensate in a pulsar is studied. Several
theorems of general-relativistic hydrodynamics are proved for a superfluid. The
average density distribution of vortex lines in pulsars and their
general-relativistic curvature are derived.Comment: 18 pages, 1 figure
Possible observation sequences of Brans-Dicke wormholes
The purpose of this study is to investigate observational features of
Brans-Dicke wormholes in a case if they exist in our Universe. The energy flux
from accretion onto a Brans-Dicke wormhole and the so-called "maximum impact
parameter" are studied (the last one might allow to observe light sources
through a wormhole throat). The computed values were compared with the
corresponding ones for GR-wormholes and Schwarzschild black holes. We shown
that Brans-Dicke wormholes are quasi-Schwarzschild objects and should differ
from GR wormholes by about one order of magnitude in the accretion energy flux.Comment: 5 pages, 6 figure
Self-force of a point charge in the space-time of a massive wormhole
We consider the self-potential and the self-force for an electrically charged
particle at rest in the massive wormhole space-time. We develop general
approach for the renormalization of electromagnetic field of such particle in
the static space-times and apply it to the space-time of the wormhole with
parameter of the mass, . The self-force is found in manifest form; it is an
attractive force. We discus the peculiarities due to massive parameter of the
wormhole.Comment: 10 pages, 1 figure text correcte
Nearby low-mass triple system GJ795
We report the results of our optical speckle-interferometric observations of
the nearby triple system GJ795 performed with the 6-m BTA telescope with
diffraction-limited angular resolution. The three components of the system were
optically resolved for the first time. Position measurements allowed us to
determine the elements of the inner orbit of the triple system. We use the
measured magnitude differences to estimate the absolute magnitudes and spectral
types of the components of the triple: =7.310.08,
=8.660.10, =8.420.10, K5,
K9, K8. The total mass of the system is
equal to =1.69. We show
GJ795 to be a hierarchical triple system which satisfies the empirical
stability criteria.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures, published in Astrophysical Bulleti
Spectroscopic analysis of the B/Be visual binary HR 1847
We studied both components of a slightly overlooked visual binary HR 1847
spectroscopically to determine its basic physical and orbital parameters. Basic
stellar parameters were determined by comparing synthetic spectra to the
observed echelle spectra, which cover both the optical and near-IR regions. New
observations of this system used the Ond\v{r}ejov and Rozhen 2-m telescopes and
their coud\'e spectrographs. Radial velocities from individual spectra were
measured and then analysed with the code {\FOTEL} to determine orbital
parameters. The spectroscopic orbit of HR 1847A is presented for the first
time. It is a single-lined spectroscopic binary with a B-type primary, a period
of 719.79 days, and a highly eccentric orbit with e=0.7. We confirmed that HR
1847B is a Be star. Its H\alpha emission significantly decreased from 2003 to
2008. Both components have a spectral type B7-8 and luminosity class IV-V.Comment: Astronomy and Astrophysics, accepte
