Non-abelian magnetic black strings versus black holes
We present dimensional pure magnetic Yang-Mills (YM) black strings (or
branes) induced by the dimensional Einstein-Yang-Mills-Dilaton black
holes. Born-Infeld version of the YM field makes our starting point which goes
to the standard YM field through a limiting procedure. The lifting from black
holes to black strings, (with less number of fields) is by adding an extra,
compact coordinate. This amounts to the change of horizon topology from
to a product structure. Our black string in dimensions is a
rather special one, with uniform Hawking temperature and non-asymptotically
flat structure. As the YM charge becomes large the string gets thinner to tend
into a breaking point and transform into a % dimensional black hole.Comment: 5 pages no figure; Final version to appear in EPJ
Sequences of globally regular and black hole solutions in SU(4) Einstein-Yang-Mills theory
SU(4) Einstein-Yang-Mills theory possesses sequences of static spherically
symmetric globally regular and black hole solutions. Considering solutions with
a purely magnetic gauge field, based on the 4-dimensional embedding of
in , these solutions are labelled by the node numbers of
the three gauge field functions , and . We classify the various
types of solutions in sequences and determine their limiting solutions. The
limiting solutions of the sequences of neutral solutions carry charge, and the
limiting solutions of the sequences of charged solutions carry higher charge.
For sequences of black hole solutions with node structure and
, several distinct branches of solutions exist up to critical values
of the horizon radius. We determine the critical behaviour for these sequences
of solutions. We also consider SU(4) Einstein-Yang-Mills-dilaton theory and
show that these sequences of solutions are analogous in most respects to the
corresponding SU(4) Einstein-Yang-Mills sequences of solutions.Comment: 40 pages, 5 tables, 19 Postscript figures, use revtex.st
Axial Torsion-Dirac spin Effect in Rotating Frame with Relativistic Factor
In the framework of spacetime with torsion and without curvature, the Dirac
particle spin precession in the rotational system is studied. We write out the
equivalent tetrad of rotating frame, in the polar coordinate system, through
considering the relativistic factor, and the resultant equivalent metric is a
flat Minkowski one. The obtained rotation-spin coupling formula can be applied
to the high speed rotating case, which is consistent with the expectation.Comment: 6 page
The sounds of science - A symphony for many instruments and voices
Sounds of Science is the first movement of a symphony for many (scientific) instruments and voices, united in celebration of the frontiers of science and intended for a general audience. John Goodenough, the maestro who transformed energy usage and technology through the invention of the lithium-ion battery, opens the programme, reflecting on the ultimate limits of battery technology. This applied theme continues through the subsequent pieces on energy-related topics - the sodium-ion battery and artificial fuels, by Martin Månsson - and the ultimate challenge for 3D printing, the eventual production of life, by Anthony Atala. A passage by Gerianne Alexander follows, contemplating a related issue: How might an artificially produced human being behave? Next comes a consideration of consciousness and free will by Roland Allen and Suzy Lidström. Further voices and new instruments enter as Warwick Bowen, Nicolas Mauranyapin and Lars Madsen discuss whether dynamical processes of single molecules might be observed in their native state. The exploitation of chaos in science and technology, applications of Bose-Einstein condensates and the significance of entropy follow in pieces by Linda Reichl, Ernst Rasel and Roland Allen, respectively. Mikhail Katsnelson and Eugene Koonin then discuss the potential generalisation of thermodynamic concepts in the context of biological evolution. Entering with the music of the cosmos, Philip Yasskin discusses whether we might be able to observe torsion in the geometry of the Universe. The crescendo comes with the crisis of singularities, their nature and whether they can be resolved through quantum effects, in the composition of Alan Coley. The climax is Mario Krenn, Art Melvin and Anton Zeilinger\u27s consideration of how computer code can be autonomously surprising and creative. In a harmonious counterpoint, his \u27Guidelines for considering AIs as coauthors\u27, Roman Yampolskiy concludes that code is not yet able to take responsibility for coauthoring a paper. An interlude summarises a speech by Zdeněk Papoušek. In a subsequent movement, new themes emerge as we seek to comprehend how far we have travelled along the path to understanding, and speculate on where new physics might arise. Who would have imagined, 100 years ago, a global society permeated by smartphones and scientific instruments so sophisticated that genes can be modified and gravitational waves detected
Classical Yang-Mills Black hole hair in anti-de Sitter space
The properties of hairy black holes in Einstein–Yang–Mills (EYM) theory are reviewed, focusing on spherically symmetric solutions. In particular, in asymptotically anti-de Sitter space (adS) stable black hole hair is known to exist for frak su(2) EYM. We review recent work in which it is shown that stable hair also exists in frak su(N) EYM for arbitrary N, so that there is no upper limit on how much stable hair a black hole in adS can possess
Existence of black hole solutions for the Einstein-Yang/Mills equations
This paper provides a rigorous proof of the existence of an infinite number of black hole solutions to the Einstein-Yang/Mills equations with gauge group SU (2), for any event horizon. It is also demonstrated that the ADM mass of each solutions is finite, and that the corresponding Einstein metric tends to the associated Schwarzschild metric at a rate 1/ r 2 , as r tends to infinity.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/46482/1/220_2005_Article_BF02097002.pd
Conservation of energy-momentum of matter as the basis for the gauge theory of gravitation
According to Yang \& Mills (1954), a {\it conserved} current and a related
rigid (`global') symmetry lie at the foundations of gauge theory. When the
rigid symmetry is extended to a {\it local} one, a so-called gauge symmetry, a
new interaction emerges as gauge potential ; its field strength is . In gravity, the conservation of the energy-momentum current of
matter and the rigid translation symmetry in the Minkowski space of special
relativity lie at the foundations of a gravitational gauge theory. If the
translation invariance is made local, a gravitational potential
arises together with its field strength . Thereby
the Minkowski space deforms into a Weitzenb\"ock space with nonvanishing
torsion but vanishing curvature. The corresponding theory is reviewed and
its equivalence to general relativity pointed out. Since translations form a
subgroup of the Poincar\'e group, the group of motion of special relativity,
one ought to straightforwardly extend the gauging of the translations to the
gauging of full Poincar\'e group thereby also including the conservation law of
the {\it angular momentum} current. The emerging Poincar\'e gauge (theory of)
gravity, starting from the viable Einstein-Cartan theory of 1961, will be
shortly reviewed and its prospects for further developments assessed.Comment: 46 pages, 4 figures, minor corrections, references added,
