Reduced classical field theories. k-cosymplectic formalism on Lie algebroids
In this paper we introduce a geometric description of Lagrangian and
Hamiltonian classical field theories on Lie algebroids in the framework of
-cosymplectic geometry. We discuss the relation between Lagrangian and
Hamiltonian descriptions through a convenient notion of Legendre
transformation. The theory is a natural generalization of the standard one; in
addition, other interesting examples are studied, mainly on reduction of
classical field theories.Comment: 26 page
Hints of 5d Fixed Point Theories from Non-Abelian T-duality
In this paper we investigate the properties of the putative 5d fixed point
theory that should be dual, through the holographic correspondence, to the new
supersymmetric AdS(6) solution constructed in Lozano et al. This solution is
the result of a non-Abelian T-duality transformation on the known
supersymmetric AdS(6) solution of massive Type IIA. The analysis of the charge
quantization conditions seems to put constraints on the global properties of
the background, which, combined with the information extracted from considering
probe branes, suggests a 2-node quiver candidate for the dual CFT.Comment: v2, typos corrected, comments added, to appear in JHE
Supersymmetric AdS_6 via T-duality
We present a new supersymmetric AdS_6 solution of type IIB supergravity with
SU(2) isometry. Through the AdS/CFT correspondence, this has potentially very
interesting implications for 5d fixed point theories. This solution is the
result of a non-Abelian T-duality on the known supersymmetric AdS_6 solution of
massive IIA. The SU(2) R-symmetry is untouched, leading to sixteen supercharges
and preserved supersymmetry.Comment: 4 pages, published versio
The mass loss process in dwarf galaxies from 3D hydrodynamical simulations: the role of dark matter and starbursts
Theoretical CDM cosmological models predict a much larger number of
low mass dark matter haloes than has been observed in the Local Group of
galaxies. One possible explanation is the increased difficulty of detecting
these haloes if most of the visible matter is lost at early evolutionary phases
through galactic winds. In this work we study the current models of triggering
galactic winds in dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSph) from supernovae, and study,
based on 3D hydrodynamic numerical simulations, the correlation of the mass
loss rates and important physical parameters as the dark matter halo mass and
its radial profile, and the star formation rate. We find that the existence of
winds is ubiquitous, independent on the gravitational potential. Our
simulations revealed that the Rayleigh-Taylor Instability (RTI) may play a
major role on pushing matter out of these systems, even for very massive
haloes. The instability is responsible for 5 - 40% of the mass loss during the
early evolution of the galaxy, being less relevant at Myrs. There is
no significant difference in the mass loss rates obtained for the different
dark matter profiles studied (NFW and logarithmic). We have also found a
correlation between the mass loss rate and both the halo mass and the rate of
supernovae, as already reported in previous works. Besides, the epoch in which
most of the baryon galactic matter is removed from the galaxy varies depending
on the SN rate and gravitational potential. The later, combined to the
importance of the RTI in each model, may change our understanding about the
chemical evolution of dwarf galaxies, as well as in the heavy element
contamination of the intergalactic medium at high redshifts.Comment: MNRAS, accepte
