Effective action for the field equations of charged black holes
In this article, we consistently reduce the equations of motion for the
bosonic N = 2 supergravity action, using a multi-centered black hole ansatz for
the metric. This reduction is done in a general, non-supersymmetric setup, in
which we extend concepts of BPS black hole technology. First of all we obtain a
more general form of the black hole potential, as part of an effective action
for both the scalars and the vectors in the supergravity theory. Furthermore,
we show that there are extra constraints specifying the solution, which we
calculate explicitly. In the literature, these constraints have already been
studied in the one-center case. We also show that the effective action we
obtain for non-static metrics, can be linked to the "entropy function" for the
spherically symmetric case, as defined by Sen and Cardoso et al.Comment: 18 pages, (v2: small corrections, version to be published in CQG
Electromagnetic radiation from collisions at almost the speed of light: an extremely relativistic charged particle falling into a Schwarzschild black hole
We investigate the electromagnetic radiation released during the high energy
collision of a charged point particle with a four-dimensional Schwarzschild
black hole. We show that the spectra is flat, and well described by a classical
calculation. We also compare the total electromagnetic and gravitational
energies emitted, and find that the former is supressed in relation to the
latter for very high energies. These results could apply to the astrophysical
world in the case charged stars and small charged black holes are out there
colliding into large black holes, and to a very high energy collision
experiment in a four-dimensional world. In this latter scenario the calculation
is to be used for the moments just after the black hole formation, when the
collision of charged debris with the newly formed black hole is certainly
expected. Since the calculation is four-dimensional, it does not directly apply
to Tev-scale gravity black holes, as these inhabit a world of six to eleven
dimensions, although our results should qualitatively hold when extrapolated
with some care to higher dimensions.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figure
Instanton Corrected Non-Supersymmetric Attractors
We discuss non-supersymmetric attractors with an instanton correction in Type
IIA string theory compactified on a Calabi-Yau three-fold at large volume. For
a stable non-supersymmetric black hole, the attractor point must minimize the
effective black hole potential. We study the supersymmetric as well as
non-supersymmetric attractors for the D0-D4 system with instanton corrections.
We show that in simple models, like the STU model, the flat directions of the
mass matrix can be lifted by a suitable choice of the instanton parameters.Comment: Minor modifications, Corrected typos, 38 pages, 1 figur
Late-Time Tails of Wave Propagation in Higher Dimensional Spacetimes
We study the late-time tails appearing in the propagation of massless fields
(scalar, electromagnetic and gravitational) in the vicinities of a
D-dimensional Schwarzschild black hole. We find that at late times the fields
always exhibit a power-law falloff, but the power-law is highly sensitive to
the dimensionality of the spacetime. Accordingly, for odd D>3 we find that the
field behaves as t^[-(2l+D-2)] at late times, where l is the angular index
determining the angular dependence of the field. This behavior is entirely due
to D being odd, it does not depend on the presence of a black hole in the
spacetime. Indeed this tails is already present in the flat space Green's
function. On the other hand, for even D>4 the field decays as t^[-(2l+3D-8)],
and this time there is no contribution from the flat background. This power-law
is entirely due to the presence of the black hole. The D=4 case is special and
exhibits, as is well known, the t^[-(2l+3)] behavior. In the extra dimensional
scenario for our Universe, our results are strictly correct if the extra
dimensions are infinite, but also give a good description of the late time
behaviour of any field if the large extra dimensions are large enough.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, RevTeX4. Version to appear in Rapid
