    In the present work we study non-thermal leptogenesis and baryon asymmetry in the universe in different neutrino mass models discussed recently. For each model we obtain a formula relating the reheating temperature after inflation to the inflaton mass. It is shown that all but four cases are excluded and that in the cases which survive the inflaton mass and the reheating temperature after inflation are bounded from below and from above

    Temperature dependence of absorption in photorefractive iron-doped lithium niobate crystals

    We present experimental data showing a significant dependence of light absorption on temperature in photorefractive LiNbO3:Fe crystals. The results are successfully explained by assuming that the widths of the Fe2+ absorption bands in the visible and in the infrared spectral region depend on temperature. The findings are of relevance for thermal fixing of holograms. Furthermore, a temperature-induced increase of the infrared absorption is promising for improved infrared recording

    Black hole shadow of a rotating polytropic black hole by the Newman--Janis algorithm without complexification

    In this work, starting from a spherically symmetric polytropic black hole, a rotating solution is obtained by following the Newman--Janis algorithm without complexification. Besides studying the horizon, the static conditions and causality issues of the rotating solution, we obtain and discuss the shape of its shadow. Some other physical features as the Hawking temperature and emission rate of the rotating polytropic black hole solution are also discussed.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figures, some references adde

    Novel charged black hole solutions of Born-Infeld type: General properties, Smarr formula and Quasinormal frequencies

    Get PDF
    We investigate two novel models of charged black holes in the framework of non-linear electrodynamics of Born-Infeld type. In particular, starting from two concrete Lagrangian densities, the corresponding metric potentials, the electric field, the Smarr formula and finally, the (scalar) quasinormal modes are computed for each model. Our findings show that although the models look very similar, their quasinormal spectra are characterized by certain differences.Comment: 18 pages, 7 figures, 3 tables, to be published in Annals of Physic

    Gravitino dark matter in brane-world cosmology

    Get PDF
    The gravitino dark matter hypothesis in the brane cosmology is studied. The theoretical framework is the CMSSM for particle physics and RS II brane model for gravity. It is found that the gravitino can play the role of dark matter in the universe and we determine what the gravitino mass should be for different values of the five-dimensional Planck mass. An upper bound is obtained for the latter.Comment: Improved version with minor corrections, to appear in JCA
