    Using invariant transformations of the five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein (KK) field equations, we find a series of formulae to derive axial symmetric stationary exact solutions of the KK theory starting from static ones. The procedure presented in this work allows to derive new exact solutions up to very simple integrations. Among other results, we find exact rotating solutions containing magnetic monopoles, dipoles, quadripoles, etc., coupled to scalar and to gravitational multipole fields.Comment: 24 pages, latex, no figures.

    Oscillatons revisited

    Get PDF
    In this paper, we study some interesting properties of a spherically symmetric oscillating soliton star made of a real time-dependent scalar field which is called an oscillaton. The known final configuration of an oscillaton consists of a stationary stage in which the scalar field and the metric coefficients oscillate in time if the scalar potential is quadratic. The differential equations that arise in the simplest approximation, that of coherent scalar oscillations, are presented for a quadratic scalar potential. This allows us to take a closer look at the interesting properties of these oscillating objects. The leading terms of the solutions considering a quartic and a cosh scalar potentials are worked in the so called stationary limit procedure. This procedure reveals the form in which oscillatons and boson stars may be related and useful information about oscillatons is obtained from the known results of boson stars. Oscillatons could compete with boson stars as interesting astrophysical objects, since they would be predicted by scalar field dark matter models.Comment: 10 pages REVTeX, 10 eps figures.

    Axisymmetric Stationary Solutions as Harmonic Maps

    Full text link
    We present a method for generating exact solutions of Einstein equations in vacuum using harmonic maps, when the spacetime possesses two commutating Killing vectors. This method consists in writing the axisymmetric stationry Einstein equations in vacuum as a harmonic map which belongs to the group SL(2,R), and decomposing it in its harmonic "submaps". This method provides a natural classification of the solutions in classes (Weil's class, Lewis' class etc).Comment: 17 TeX pages, one table,( CINVESTAV- preprint 12/93

    5D Schwarzschild-Like Spacetimes with Arbitrary Magnetic Field

    Full text link
    We find a new class of exact solutions of the five-dimensional Einstein equations whose corresponding four-dimensional spacetime possesses a Schwarzschild-like behavior. The electromagnetic potential depends on a harmonic function and can be choosen to be of a monopole, dipole, etc. field. The solutions are asymptotically flat and for vanishing magnetic field the four metrics are of the Schwarzschild solution. The spacetime is singular in r=2mr=2m for higher multipole moments, but regular for monopoles or vanishing magnetic fields in this point. The scalar field posseses a singular behavior. #(Preprint CINVESTAV 15/93)#Comment: 6 pages, LaTeX.

    Minimum mass of galaxies from BEC or scalar field dark matter

    Full text link
    Many problems of cold dark matter models such as the cusp problem and the missing satellite problem can be alleviated, if galactic halo dark matter particles are ultra-light scalar particles and in Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), thanks to a characteristic length scale of the particles. We show that this finite length scale of the dark matter can also explain the recently observed common central mass of the Milky Way satellites (107M\sim 10^7 M_\odot) independent of their luminosity, if the mass of the dark matter particle is about 1022eV10^{-22} eV.Comment: 10 pages, 1 figure, accepted in JCA

    Isomorphism between Non-Riemannian gravity and Einstein-Proca-Weyl theories extended to a class of Scalar gravity theories

    Get PDF
    We extend the recently proved relation between certain models of Non-Riemannian gravitation and Einstein- Proca-Weyl theories to a class of Scalar gravity theories. This is used to present a Black-Hole Dilaton solution with non-Riemannian connection.Comment: 13 pages, tex file, accepted in Class. Quant. Gra

    Galactic Collapse of Scalar Field Dark Matter

    Full text link
    We present a scenario for galaxy formation based on the hypothesis of scalar field dark matter. We interpret galaxy formation through the collapse of a scalar field fluctuation. We find that a cosh potential for the self-interaction of the scalar field provides a reasonable scenario for galactic formation, which is in agreement with cosmological observations and phenomenological studies in galaxies.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figue
