    Thermonuclear burn-up in deuterated methane CD4CD_4

    Full text link
    The thermonuclear burn-up of highly compressed deuterated methane CD4_4 is considered in the spherical geometry. The minimal required values of the burn-up parameter x=ρ0rfx = \rho_0 \cdot r_f are determined for various temperatures TT and densities ρ0\rho_0. It is shown that thermonuclear burn-up in CD4CD_4 becomes possible in practice if its initial density ρ0\rho_0 exceeds 5103\approx 5 \cdot 10^3 gcm3g \cdot cm^{-3}. Burn-up in CD2_2T2_2 methane requires significantly (\approx 100 times) lower compressions. The developed approach can be used in order to compute the critical burn-up parameters in an arbitrary deuterium containing fuel

    Scattering of Straight Cosmic Strings by Black Holes: Weak Field Approximation

    Full text link
    The scattering of a straight, infinitely long string moving with velocity vv by a black hole is considered. We analyze the weak-field case, where the impact parameter (bimpb_{imp}) is large, and obtain exact solutions to the equations of motion. As a result of scattering, the string is displaced in the direction perpendicular to the velocity by an amount Δb2πGMvγ/c3π(GM)2/(4c3vbimp)\Delta b\sim -2\pi GMv\gamma/c^3 -\pi (GM)^2/ (4c^3 v b_{imp}), where γ=(1(v/c)2)1/2\gamma=(1-(v/c)^2)^{-1/2}. The second term dominates at low velocities v/c<(GM/bimp)1/2v/c<(GM/b_{imp})^{1/2} . The late-time solution is represented by a kink and anti-kink, propagating in opposite directions at the speed of light, and leaving behind them the string in a new ``phase''. The solutions are applied to the problem of string capture, and are compared to numerical results.Comment: 19 pages, 5 figure

    Accretion of non-minimally coupled generalized Chaplygin gas into black holes

    Full text link
    The mass evolution of Schwarzschild black holes by the absorption of scalar fields is investigated in the scenario of the generalized Chaplygin gas (GCG). The GCG works as a unification picture of dark matter plus dark energy that naturally accelerates the expansion of the Universe. Through elements of the quasi-stationary approach, we consider the mass evolution of Schwarzschild black holes accreted by non-minimally coupled cosmological scalar fields reproducing the dynamics of the GCG. As a scalar field non-minimally coupled to the metrics, such an exotic content has been interconnected with accreting black holes. The black hole increasing masses by the absorption of the gas reflects some consistence of the accretion mechanism with the hypothesis of the primordial origin of supermassive black holes. Our results effectively show that the non-minimal coupling with the GCG dark sector accelerates the increasing of black hole masses. Meanwhile some exotic features can also be depicted for specific ranges of the non-minimal coupling in which the GCG dynamics is substantially modified.Comment: 13 pages, 03 figure

    Small deviations of iterated processes in space of trajectories

    Full text link
    We derive logarithmic asymptotics of probabilities of small deviations for iterated processes in the space of trajectories. We find conditions under which these asymptotics coincide with those of processes generating iterated processes. When these conditions fail the asymptotics are quite different

    Gauge field theory for Poincar\'{e}-Weyl group

    Full text link
    On the basis of the general principles of a gauge field theory the gauge theory for the Poincar\'{e}-Weyl group is constructed. It is shown that tetrads are not true gauge fields, but represent functions from true gauge fields: Lorentzian, translational and dilatational ones. The equations of gauge fields which sources are an energy-momentum tensor, orbital and spin momemta, and also a dilatational current of an external field are obtained. A new direct interaction of the Lorentzian gauge field with the orbital momentum of an external field appears, which describes some new effects. Geometrical interpretation of the theory is developed and it is shown that as a result of localization of the Poincar\'{e}-Weyl group spacetime becomes a Weyl-Cartan space. Also the geometrical interpretation of a dilaton field as a component of the metric tensor of a tangent space in Weyl-Cartan geometry is proposed.Comment: LaTex, 27 pages, no figure

    Vacuum polarization of massive scalar fields in the spacetime of the electrically charged nonlinear black hole

    Get PDF
    The approximate renormalized stress-energy tensor of the quantized massive conformally coupled scalar field in the spacetime of electrically charged nonlinear black hole is constructed. It is achieved by functional differentiation of the lowest order of the DeWitt-Schwinger effective action involving coincidence limit of the Hadamard-Minakshisundaram-DeWitt-Seely coefficient a3.a_{3}. The result is compared with the analogous result derived for the Reissner-Nordstr\"om black hole. It is shown that the most important differences occur in the vicinity of the event horizon of the black hole near the extremality limit. The structure of the nonlinear black hole is briefly studied by means of the Lambert functions.Comment: 22 pages, 10 figure
