Semiclassical Gravitational Effects in the Spacetime of a Magnetic Flux Cosmic String

چکیده

It is well-known that some physical effects may arise in the spacetime of a straigth cosmic string due to its global conic properties. Among these effects, the vacuum polarization effect has been extensively studied in the litterature. In papers of reference [4] a more general situation has been considered in which the cosmic string carries a magnetic flux Φ and interacts with a charged scalar field. In this case, the vacuum polarization arises both via non-trivial gravitational interaction (i.e, the conical structure) and via Aharonov-Bohm interaction. In papers [4] the non vanishing VEV of the energy-momentum tensor of the scalar field were computed. However, this energy-momentum tensor should, in principle, be taken into account to determine the spacetime associated with the magnetic flux cosmic string. Using the

Quantum Effects in the Spacetime of a Magnetic Flux Cosmic String

In this work we compute the vacuum expectation values of the energymomentum tensor and the average value of a massive, charged scalar field in the presence of a magnetic flux cosmic string for both zeroand finitetemperature cases.

Gravitational phase operator and cosmic strings.

A quantum equivalence principle is formulated by means of a gravitational phase operator which is an element of the Poincare group. This is applied to the spinning cosmic string which suggests that it may contain gravitational torsion. A new exact solution of the EinsteinCartan-Sciama-Kibble equations for the gravitational field with torsion is obtained everywhere for a cosmic string with unifo...

Induced fermionic currents in de Sitter spacetime in the presence of a compactified cosmic string

We investigate the vacuum fermionic currents in the geometry of a compactified cosmic string on background of de Sitter spacetime. The currents are induced by magnetic fluxes running along the cosmic string and enclosed by the compact dimension. We show that the vacuum charge and the radial component of the current density vanish. By using the Abel-Plana summation formula, the azimuthal and axi...

The bound state Aharonov-Bohm effect around a cosmic string revisited

When a quantum particle is confined between two impenetrable concentric cylindrical walls, threaded by a magnetic flux tube along their common axis, its energy spectrum presents a dependence on the flux. This is the so-called bound state Aharonov-Bohm effect [1]. A gravitational analogue of this effect, with a cosmic string replacing the flux tube, has been studied in references [2, 3]. This is...
