Electromagnetic fields in curved spacetimes
We study the evolution of electromagnetic fields in curved spacetimes and calculate the exact wave equations of the associated electric and magnetic components. Our analysis applies to a general spacetime, is fully covariant and isolates all the sources that affect the propagation of these waves. Among others, we explicitly show how the different parts of the gravitational field act as driving ...
متن کاملOn Gravitational Shock Waves in Curved Spacetimes
Some years ago Dray and ’t Hooft found the necessary and sufficient conditions to introduce a gravitational shock wave in a particular class of vacuum solutions to Einstein’s equations. We extend this work to cover cases where non-vanishing matter fields and cosmological constant are present. The sources of gravitational waves are massless particles moving along a null surface such as a horizon...
متن کاملThe Genesis of Electromagnetic and Gravitational Forces
This paper proposes a new geometrical theory for the formation of subatomic structures underlying electric polarities and gravitation, and describes their interactions at the sub-elemental particle level. The structures are derived from two basic observations and their interpretations. It is observed that spiral motion is a fundamental action of matter and that all material manifestation is a t...
متن کاملScalar and electromagnetic perturbations on LRS class II spacetimes
We study scalar field and electromagnetic perturbations on Locally Rotationally Symmetric class II spacetimes, exploiting a recently developed covariant and gauge-invariant perturbation formalism. From the Klein-Gordon equation and Maxwell’s equations, respectively, we derive covariant and gauge-invariant wave equations for the perturbation variables and thereby find the generalised ReggeWheele...
