Ray Optics in the Field of Non-minimal Dirac Monopole
نویسندگان
چکیده
Based on the analogy with non-minimal SU(2) symmetric Wu-Yang monopole with regular metric, the solution describing a non-minimal U(1) symmetric Dirac monopole is obtained. In order to take into account the curvature coupling of gravitational and electromagnetic fields, we reconstruct the effective metrics of two types: the so-called associated and optical metrics. The optical metrics display explicitly that the effect of birefringence induced by curvature takes place in the vicinity of the non-minimal Dirac monopole; these optical metrics are studied analytically and numerically.

Dirac Monopole in Non-Commutative Space
We consider static U(1) monopole in non-commutative space. Up to the second order in the non-commutativity scale θ, we find no non-trivial corrections to the Dirac solution, the monopole mass remains infinite. We argue the same holds for any arbitrary higher order. Some speculation about the nature of non-commutative spacetime and its relation to the cosmological constant is made. Non-commutati...
متن کاملDirac-Yang monopoles and their regular counterparts
The Dirac-Yang monopoles are singular Yang–Mills field configurations in all Euclidean dimensions. The regular counterpart of the Dirac monopole in D = 3 is the t Hooft-Polyakov monopole, the former being simply a gauge transform of the asymptotic fields of the latter. Here, regular counterparts of Dirac-Yang monopoles in all dimensions, are described. In the first part of this talk the hierarc...
متن کاملA non-singular potential for the Dirac monopole
We propose a new vector potential for the Abelian magnetic monopole. The potential is nonsingular in the entire region around the monopole. We argue how the Dirac quantization condition can be derived for any choice of potential. Magnetic monopoles have not been found experimentally, but there are strong theoretical reasons to believe that they exist. Dirac [1] showed that if a magnetic monopol...
متن کاملA Study of Electromagnetic Radiation from Monopole Antennas on Spherical-Lossy Earth Using the Finite-Difference Time-Domain Method
Radiation from monopole antennas on spherical-lossy earth is analyzed by the finitedifference time-domain (FDTD) method in spherical coordinates. A novel generalized perfectly matched layer (PML) has been developed for the truncation of the lossy soil. For having an accurate modeling with less memory requirements, an efficient "non-uniform" mesh generation scheme is used. Also in each time step...
متن کاملNon-Relativistic Limit of Neutron Beta-Decay Cross-Section in the Presence of Strong Magnetic Field
One of the most important reactions of the URCA that lead to the cooling of a neutron star, is neutron beta-decay ( ). In this research, the energy spectra and wave functions of massive fermions taking into account the Anomalous Magnetic Moment (AMM) in the presence of a strong changed magnetic field are calculated. For this purpose, the Dirac-Pauli equation for charged and neutral fermions is ...
