    A note on an early Jurassic ophiuroid from Rachecourt (Lorraine, Belgium)

    Get PDF
    A fairly well-preserved ophiuroid, collected from micaceous sandy argillites of the Messaney Formation (Domerian, late Pliensbachian) as exposed at Rachecourt (Gaume, Belgian Lorraine) is described and tentatively identified as Sinosura wolburgi (Hess, 1960). The rarity of complete ophiuroid fossils in Belgian Jurassic deposits and the poor fossil content of the Messaney Formation (bioelastic beds, crinoid columnals) warrant description of the present specimen

    Skyrmion and Skyrme-Black holes in de Sitter spacetime

    Full text link
    Numerical arguments are presented for the existence of regular and black hole solutions of the Einstein-Skyrme equations with a positive cosmological constant. These classical configurations approach asymptotically the de Sitter spacetime. The main properties of the solutions and the differences with respect to the asymptotically flat ones are discussed. It particular our results suggest that, for a positive cosmological constant, the mass evaluated as timelike infinity in infinite. Special emphasis is set to De Sitter black holes Skyrmions which display two horizons.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figure

    A new microvertebrate fauna from the Middle Hettangian (early Jurassic) of Fontenoille (Province of Luxembourg, south Belgium)

    Get PDF
    A Lower Jurassic horizon from Fontenoille yielding fossil fish remains can be dated to the Middle Hettangian Liasicus zone on the basis of the early belemnite Schwegleria and the ammonite Alsatites Iciqueus francus. Hybodontiform sharks are represented by Hybodus reticularis, Lissodus sp„ Polxacrodus sp, and Neoselachians by Synechodus paludinensis nov. sp. and Synechodus streitzi, nov. sp. Earlier reports of a scyliorhinid are not confirmed; teeth of similar morphology to scyliorhinids seem to be juvenile variants of 5. paludinensis. Chimaeriform remains include Squaloraja sp., the earliest occurrence of the genus. The Actinopterygian fauna is introduced, comprising a palaeonisciform cf. Ptxcholepis, a possible late perleidiform cf. Platysiagum, the dapediid semionotiforms Dapedium and cf. Tetragonolepis, the pycnodontiform Eomesodon, halecomorphs cf. Furidae or Ophiopsidae, pholidophoriforms and/or Leptolepididae, and actinistians. Lepidosaur remains are also present

    Non Uniform Black Strings and Critical Dimensions in AdSdAdS_d

    Full text link
    We study the equations of black strings in spacetimes of arbitrary dimensions with a negative cosmological constant and construct numerically non uniform black strings solutions. Our results suggest the existence of a localised black hole in asymptotically locally AdSAdS spacetime. We also present evidences for a dependence of the critical dimension on the horizon radius.The critical dimension represents the dimension where the order of the phase transition between uniform and non uniform black string changes. Finally, we argue that both, the regular asymptotically locally AdSAdS solution and AdSAdS black string solutions with a very small horizon radius, present a negative tension. This turns out to be an unexpected feature of the solutions.Comment: 13 pages, 5 figure

    Charged-rotating black holes and black strings in higher dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory with a positive cosmological constant

    Get PDF
    We present arguments for the existence of charged, rotating black holes in d=2N+1d=2N+1 dimensions, with d≥5d\geq 5 with a positive cosmological constant. These solutions posses both, a regular horizon and a cosmological horizon of spherical topology and have NN equal-magnitude angular momenta. They approach asymptotically the de Sitter spacetime background. The counterpart equations for d=2N+2d=2N+2 are investigated, by assuming that the fields are independant of the extra dimension yy, leading to black strings solutions. These solutions are regular at the event horizon. The asymptotic form of the metric is not the de Sitter form and exhibit a naked singularity at finite proper distance.Comment: 21 pages, 9 figure

    New stable phase of non uniform black strings in AdSd{AdS}_d

    Full text link
    We consider the non uniform AdSAdS black string equations in arbitrary number of dimension in a perturbative approach up to order 2 and in a non perturbative. We restrict the study in the perturbative approach to the backreacting modes, since they provide the first relevant corrections on the thermodynamical quantities of the solutions. We also present some preliminary results in the construction of non-perturbative solutions, in particular, we present a first part of the non uniform - uniform black string phase diagram. Our results suggests the existence of a new stable phase for AdSAdS non uniform black strings, namely long non uniform black string, with the extra direction length of the order of the AdSAdS curvature.Comment: Results extended. 14 pages, 5 figure
