    General Form of Color Charge of the Quark

    Full text link
    In Maxwell theory the constant electric charge e of the electron is consistent with the continuity equation μjμ(x)=0\partial_\mu j^\mu(x)=0 where jμ(x)j^\mu(x) is the current density of the electron where the repeated indices μ=0,1,2,3\mu=0,1,2,3 are summed. However, in Yang-Mills theory the Yang-Mills color current density jμa(x)j^{\mu a}(x) of the quark satisfies the equation Dμ[A]jμa(x)=0D_\mu[A]j^{\mu a}(x)=0 which is not a continuity equation (μjμa(x)0\partial_\mu j^{\mu a}(x)\neq 0) which implies that the color charge of the quark is not constant where a=1,2,...,8 are the color indices. Since the charge of a point particle is obtained from the zero (μ=0\mu =0) component of a corresponding current density by integrating over the entire (physically) allowed volume, the color charge qa(t)q^a(t) of the quark in Yang-Mills theory is time dependent. In this paper we derive the general form of eight time dependent fundamental color charges qa(t)q^a(t) of the quark in Yang-Mills theory in SU(3) where a=1,2,...,8.Comment: 52 pages latex, final version, accepted for publication in Eur.

    Gravitational Leptogenesis and Neutrino Mass Limit

    Full text link
    Recently Davoudiasl {\it et al} \cite{steinhardt} have introduced a new type of interaction between the Ricci scalar RR and the baryon current JμJ^{\mu}, μRJμ{\partial_\mu R} J^{\mu} and proposed a mechanism for baryogenesis, the gravitational baryogenesis. Generally, however, μR\partial_{\mu} R vanishes in the radiation dominated era. In this paper we consider a generalized form of their interaction, μf(R)Jμ\partial_{\mu}f(R)J^{\mu} and study again the possibility of gravitational baryo(lepto)genesis. Taking f(R)lnRf(R)\sim \ln R, we will show that μf(R)μR/R\partial_{\mu}f(R)\sim \partial_{\mu} R/R does not vanish and the required baryon number asymmetry can be {\it naturally} generated in the early universe.Comment: 4 page

    General Form of the Color Potential Produced by Color Charges of the Quark

    Constant electric charge ee satisfies the continuity equation μjμ(x)=0\partial_\mu j^{\mu}(x)= 0 where jμ(x)j^\mu(x) is the current density of the electron. However, the Yang-Mills color current density jμa(x)j^{\mu a}(x) of the quark satisfies the equation Dμ[A]jμa(x)=0D_\mu[A] j^{\mu a}(x)= 0 which is not a continuity equation (μjμa(x)0\partial_\mu j^{\mu a}(x)\neq 0) which implies that a color charge qa(t)q^a(t) of the quark is not constant but it is time dependent where a=1,2,...8a=1,2,...8 are color indices. In this paper we derive general form of color potential produced by color charges of the quark. We find that the general form of the color potential produced by the color charges of the quark at rest is given by \Phi^a(x) =A_0^a(t,{\bf x}) =\frac{q^b(t-\frac{r}{c})}{r}\[\frac{{\rm exp}[g\int dr \frac{Q(t-\frac{r}{c})}{r}] -1}{g \int dr \frac{Q(t-\frac{r}{c})}{r}}\]_{ab} where drdr integration is an indefinite integration, ~~ Qab(τ0)=fabdqd(τ0)Q_{ab}(\tau_0)=f^{abd}q^d(\tau_0), ~~r=xX(τ0)r=|{\vec x}-{\vec X}(\tau_0)|, ~~τ0=trc\tau_0=t-\frac{r}{c} is the retarded time, ~~cc is the speed of light, ~~X(τ0){\vec X}(\tau_0) is the position of the quark at the retarded time and the repeated color indices b,db,d(=1,2,...8) are summed. For constant color charge qaq^a we reproduce the Coulomb-like potential Φa(x)=qar\Phi^a(x)=\frac{q^a}{r} which is consistent with the Maxwell theory where constant electric charge ee produces the Coulomb potential Φ(x)=er\Phi(x)=\frac{e}{r}.Comment: Final version, two more sections added, 45 pages latex, accepted for publication in JHE

    A Kerr Metric Solution in Tetrad Theory of Gravitation

    Get PDF
    Using an axial parallel vector field we obtain two exact solutions of a vacuum gravitational field equations. One of the exact solutions gives the Schwarzschild metric while the other gives the Kerr metric. The parallel vector field of the Kerr solution have an axial symmetry. The exact solution of the Kerr metric contains two constants of integration, one being the gravitational mass of the source and the other constant hh is related to the angular momentum of the rotating source, when the spin density Sijμ{S_{i j}}^\mu of the gravitational source satisfies μSijμ=0\partial_\mu {S_{i j}}^\mu=0. The singularity of the Kerr solution is studied

    Superfield formulation of central charge anomalies in two-dimensional supersymmetric theories with solitons

    Full text link
    A superfield formulation is presented of the central charge anomaly in quantum corrections to solitons in two-dimensional theories with N=1 supersymmetry. Extensive use is made of the superfield supercurrent, that places the supercurrent J^{mu}_{alpha}, energy-momentum tensor Theta^{mu nu} and topological current zeta^{mu} in a supermultiplet, to study the structure of supersymmetry and related superconformal symmetry in the presence of solitons. It is shown that the supermultiplet structure of (J^{mu}_{alpha}, Theta^{mu nu}, zeta^{mu}) is kept exact while the topological current zeta^{\mu} acquires a quantum modification through the superconformal anomaly. In addition, the one-loop superfield effective action is explicitly constructed to verify the BPS saturation of the soliton spectrum as well as the effect of the anomaly.Comment: 9 pages, Revtex, one reference adde
