Dirac and Yang monopoles revisited
The Dirac monopoles in 3-space and their generalization by C. N. Yang to 5-space are observed to be just the Levi-Civita spin connection of the cylindrical Riemannian metric on the 3and 5dimensional punctured spaces. Their straightforward generalization to higher dimensions is also investigated.
متن کاملStatic Gravitational Global Monopoles
Topological defects have attracted quite a bit of attention because of their relevance to a number of different areas ranging from condensed matter to structure formation. Studies of global monopoles in particular have served as a foundation on which knowledge of other defects has been built. Previous work details static gravitating global monopole solutions [1,2], while further studies conside...
متن کاملGlobal Monopoles in Dilaton Gravity
We analyse the gravitational field of a global monopole within the context of low energy string gravity, allowing for an arbitrary coupling of the monopole fields to the dilaton. Both massive and massless dilatons are considered. We find that, for a massless dilaton, the spacetime is generically singular, whereas when the dilaton is massive, the monopole generically induces a long range dilaton...
متن کاملCritical Phenomena Inside Global Monopoles
Quite an industry has developed around the study of nonlinear phenomena occurring at the threshold of black hole formation first discovered by Choptuik [1]. A number of reviews detail the substantial progress in understanding these phenomena [2,3]. By specifying a form of initial data parameterized by some parameter p, numerical evolutions can determine whether the value of p is sufficient to f...
متن کاملOn the Stability of Gravitating Nonabelian Monopoles
The behaviour of magnetic monopole solutions of the Einstein-YangMills-Higgs equations subject to linear spherically symmetric perturbations is studied. Using Jacobi’s criterion some of the monopoles are shown to be unstable. Furthermore the numerical results and analytical considerations indicate the existence of a set of stable solutions. ∗e-mail: [email protected]
