Dynamics of Charged Radiating Collapse in Modified Gauss-Bonnet Gravity

This paper deals with the dynamics of a shearfree charged radiating collapse in modified Gauss-Bonnet gravity. The field equations for shearfree spherical interior geometry of a charged dissipative star are formulated. To study the dynamical behavior of collapsing matter, we derive the dynamical as well as transport equations. We conclude that the gravitational force in modified Gauss-Bonnet gravity is much stronger as compared to general relativity which implies the increase in the rate of collapse. Finally, we study the effect of charge on the dynamics of collapse.Comment: 15 pages, no figure, Accepted for publication in Eur. Phys. J. Plus. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1302.117

Models of Anisotropic Self-Gravitating Source in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Gravity

In this paper, we have studied gravitational collapse and expansion of non-static anisotropic fluid in $5D$ Einstein Gauss-Bonnet gravity. For this purpose, the field equations have been modeled and evaluated for the given source and geometry. The two metric functions have been expressed in terms of parametric form of third metric function. We have examined the range of parameter $\beta$ (appearing in the form of metric functions) for which $\Theta$ the expansion scalar becomes positive/negative leads to expansion/collapse of the source. The trapped surface condition has been explored by using definition of Misner-Sharp mass and auxiliary solutions. The auxiliary solutions of the field equations involve a single function which generates two types of anisotropic solutions. Each solution can be represented in term of arbitrary function of time, this function has been chosen arbitrarily to fit the different astrophysical time profiles. The existing solutions forecast gravitational expansion and collapse depending on the choice of initial data. In this case, it has been investigated wall to wall collapse of spherical source. The dynamics of the spherical source has been observed graphically with the effects of Gauss-Bonnet coupling term $\alpha$ in the case of collapse and expansion. The energy conditions are satisfied for the specific values of parameters in the both solutions, this implies that the solutions are physically acceptable.Comment: 20 pages,16 Figures, Title Changed, Major revision included,accepted version to appear in Adv.High Energy Physic

Colour Confinement and Deformed Baryons in Quantum Chromodynamics

The confinement of coloured entities in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is traced to colour singletness of the observed entities. This is believed to arise from colour singlet state of quark-antiquark for mesons and a fully colour antisymmetric state for baryons. This demands a spherically symmetric baryon in the ground state. However it is pointed out that a deformed baryon in the ground state has been found to be extremely successful phenomenology. There are convincing experimental supports for a deformed nucleon as well. This means that something has been missed in the fundamental theory. In this paper this problem is traced to a new colour singlet state for baryons which has been missed hitherto and incorporation of which provides a consistent justification of a deformed baryon in the ground state. Interestingly this new colour singlet state is global in nature.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figur

Singularities of Noncompact Charged Objects

We formulate a model of noncompact spherical charged objects in the framework of noncommutative field theory. The Einstein-Maxwell field equations are solved with charged anisotropic fluid. We choose the forms of mass and charge densities which belong to two parameter family of density distribution functions instead of densities as Gaussian width length. It is found that the corresponding densities and the Ricci scalar are singular at origin whereas the metric is nonsingular indicating a spacelike singularity. The numerical solution of the horizon equation implies that there are either two or one or no horizon depending on the mass. We also evaluate the Hawking temperature which implies that a black hole with two horizons is evaporated to an extremal black hole with one horizon.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figures, accepted for publication in Chinese Physics

Stratospheric constituent distributions from balloon-based limb thermal emission measurements

This research task deals with an analysis of infrared thermal emission observations of the Earth's atmosphere for determination of trace constituent distributions. Infrared limb thermal emission spectra in the 700-2000 cm(exp -1) region were obtained with a liquid nitrogen cooled Michelson interferometer-spectrometer (SIRIS) on a balloon flight launched from Palestine, Texas, at nighttime on September 15-16, 1986. An important objective of this work is to obtain simultaneously measured vertical mixing ratio profiles of O3, H2O, N2O, NO2, N2O5, HNO3 and ClONO2 and compare with measurements made with a variety of techniques by other groups as well as with photochemical model calculations. A portion of the observed spectra obtained by SIRIS from the balloon flight on September 15-16, 1986, has been analyzed with a focus on calculation of the total nighttime odd nitrogen budget from the simultaneously measured profiles of important members of the NO(sub x) family. The measurements permit first direct determination of the nighttime total odd nitrogen concentrations NO(sub y) and the partitioning of the important elements of the NO(sub x) family
