    Asymptotically Non-Static Kerr-deSitter Spacetime With No Event Horizon

    Full text link
    We present our derivations for Kerr-deSitter metric in a proper comoving coordinate system.It asymptotically approaches to the deSitter metric in Robertson-walker form.This has been done by considring the stationary axially-symmetric spacetime in which motion of particle is integrable.That is the Hamilton-Jacobi and Klein-Gordon equations are separable.In this form it is asymptotically consistent with comoving frame.Comment: Title changed,revised arguments,results unchanged

    Density-metric unimodular gravity:vacuum spherical symmetry

    Full text link
    We analyze an alternative theory of gravity characterized by metrics that are tensor density of rank(0,2)and weight-1/2.The metric compatibility condition is supposed to hold. The simplest expression for the action of gravitational field is used.Taking the metric and trace of connections as dynamical variables,the field equations in the absence of matter and other kinds of sources are derived.The solutions of these equations are obtained for the case of vacuum static spherical symmetric spacetime.The null geodesics and advance of perihelion of ellipes are discussed.We confirm a subclass of solutions is regular for r>0 and there is no event horizon while it is singular at r=0.Comment: 15 pages,no,figures,typos corrected,new section added,published versio

    Cosmological constant influence on cosmic string spacetime

    Full text link
    We investigate the line element of spacetime around a linear cosmic string in the presence of a cosmological constant. We obtain the metric and argue that it should be discarded because of asymptotic considerations. Then a time dependent and consistent form of the metric is obtained and its properties are discussed.Comment: 3 page

    Can an odd number of fermions be created due to chiral anomaly?

    Get PDF
    We describe a possibility of creation of an odd number of fractionally charged fermions in 1+1 dimensional Abelian Higgs model. We point out that for 1+1 dimensions this process does not violate any symmetries of the theory, nor makes it mathematically inconsistent. We construct the proper definition of the fermionic determinant in this model and underline its non-trivial features that are of importance for realistic 3+1 dimensional models with fermion number violation.Comment: 12 pages revtex, 2 figure

    Gravitational Waves in a Spatially Closed deSitter Spacetime

    Full text link
    Perturbation of gravitational fields may be decomposed into scalar,vector and tensor components.In this paper we concern with the evolution of tensor mode perturbations in a spatially closed deSitter background of RW form. It may be thought as gravitional waves in a classical description. The chosen background has the advantage of to be maximally extended and symmetric. The spatially flat models commonly emerge from inflationary scenarios are not completely extended.We first derive the general weak field equations.Then the form of the field equations in two special cases, planar and spherical waves are obtained and their solutions are presented. We conclued with discussing the significance of the results and their implications.Comment: 16 pages,no figure

    Electrolyte gate dependent high-frequency measurement of graphene field-effect transistor for sensing applications

    Full text link
    We performed radiofrequency (RF) reflectometry measurements at 2.4 GHz on electrolyte-gated graphene field-effect transistors (GFETs) utilizing a tunable stub-matching circuit for impedance matching. We demonstrate that the gate voltage dependent RF resistivity of graphene can be deduced even in the presence of the electrolyte which is in direct contact with the graphene layer. The RF resistivity is found to be consistent with its DC counterpart in the full gate voltage range. Furthermore, in order to access the potential of high-frequency sensing for applications, we demonstrate time-dependent gating in solution with nanosecond time resolution.Comment: 14 pages, 4 figure

    Energy-momentum Density of Gravitational Waves

    Full text link
    In this paper, we elaborate the problem of energy-momentum in general relativity by energy-momentum prescriptions theory. Our aim is to calculate energy and momentum densities for the general form of gravitational waves. In this connection, we have extended the previous works by using the prescriptions of Bergmann and Tolman. It is shown that they are finite and reasonable. In addition, using Tolman prescription, exactly, leads to same results that have been obtained by Einstein and Papapetrou prescriptions.Comment: LaTeX, 9 pages, 1 table: added reference

    Vertically Self-Gravitating ADAFs in the Presence of Toroidal Magnetic Field

    Full text link
    Force due to the self-gravity of the disc in the vertical direction is considered to study its possible effects on the structure of a magnetized advection-dominated accretion disc. We present steady-sate self similar solutions for the dynamical structure of such a type of the accretion flows. Our solutions imply reduced thickness of the disc because of the self-gravity. It also imply that the thickness of the disc will increase by adding the magnetic field strength.Comment: Accepted for publication in Astrophysics and Space Science
