Charging Interacting Rotating Black Holes in Heterotic String Theory
We present a formulation of the stationary bosonic string sector of the whole
toroidally compactified effective field theory of the heterotic string as a
double Ernst system which, in the framework of General Relativity describes, in
particular, a pair of interacting spinning black holes; however, in the
framework of low--energy string theory the double Ernst system can be
particularly interpreted as the rotating field configuration of two interacting
sources of black hole type coupled to dilaton and Kalb--Ramond fields. We
clarify the rotating character of the --component of the
antisymmetric tensor field of Kalb--Ramond and discuss on its possible torsion
nature. We also recall the fact that the double Ernst system possesses a
discrete symmetry which is used to relate physically different string vacua.
Therefore we apply the normalized Harrison transformation (a charging symmetry
which acts on the target space of the low--energy heterotic string theory
preserving the asymptotics of the transformed fields and endowing them with
multiple electromagnetic charges) on a generic solution of the double Ernst
system and compute the generated field configurations for the 4D effective
field theory of the heterotic string. This transformation generates the
vector field content of the whole low--energy heterotic string
spectrum and gives rise to a pair of interacting rotating black holes endowed
with dilaton, Kalb--Ramond and multiple electromagnetic fields where the charge
vectors are orthogonal to each other.Comment: 15 pages in latex, revised versio
Active gravitational mass and the invariant characterization of Reissner-Nordstrom spacetime
We analyse the concept of active gravitational mass for Reissner-Nordstrom
spacetime in terms of scalar polynomial invariants and the Karlhede
classification. We show that while the Kretschmann scalar does not produce the
expected expression for the active gravitational mass, both scalar polynomial
invariants formed from the Weyl tensor, and the Cartan scalars, do.Comment: 6 pages Latex, to appear in General Relativity and Gravitatio
Some cases of anatomic variations observed in dissections
En el presente trabajo, los autores detallan una variación de la arteria toracodorsal en el vacuno y otra del músculo peroné largo en el cerdo.In this work the authors give detail of a variation found in the dorsal thoracic artery (Toraco Dorsalis) in Bovines. Another variation was found in the long perone muscle (Peroneus Longus) of swine.Facultad de Ciencias Veterinaria
