Stringy Corrections to Kaluza-Klein Black Holes
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider string theory corrections to 4D black holes which are solutions of the 5D vacuum Einstein equations. We find that the corrections vanish only for the extremal electric solution. We also show that for the non-extremal electric black hole the mass corrections are related to the charge corrections. The implications to string states counting and the correspondence principle for black holes and strings are discussed. ∗Email:[email protected]

Pair creation of extremal black holes and Kaluza-Klein monopoles.
Classical solutions describing charged dilaton black holes accelerating in a background magnetic field have recently been found. They include the Ernst metric of the EinsteinMaxwell theory as a special case. We study the extremal limit of these solutions in detail, both at the classical and quantum levels. It is shown that near the event horizon, the extremal solutions reduce precisely to the s...
متن کاملKaluza-Klein Black Holes in String Theory
Non-supersymmetric black holes carrying both electric and magnetic charge with respect to a single Kaluza-Klein gauge field have much in common with supersymmetric black holes. Angular momentum conservation and other general physics principles underlies some of their basic features. Kaluza-Klein black holes are interpreted in string theory as bound states of D6-branes and D0branes. The microsco...

We explore the obsevability of extra dimensions through 5-dimensional squashed Kaluza-Klein black holes residing in the Kaluza-Klein spacetime. With the expectation that the Hawking radiation reflects the 5-dimensional nature of the squashed horizon, we study the Hawking radiation of a scalar field in the squashed black hole background. As a result, we show that the luminosity of Hawking radiat...
متن کاملUnwinding Strings and T-duality of Kaluza-Klein and H-Monopoles
A fundamental string with non-zero winding number can unwind in the presence of a Kaluza-Klein monopole. We use this fact to deduce the presence of a zero mode for the Kaluza-Klein monopole corresponding to excitations carrying H-electric charge and we study the coupling of this zero mode to fundamental strings. We also a describe a T-dual process in which the momentum of a fundamental string “...
متن کاملWhen Black Holes Meet Kaluza-Klein Bubbles
We explore the physical consequences of a recently discovered class of exact solutions to five dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory. We find a number of surprising features including: (1) In the presence of a Kaluza-Klein bubble, there are arbitrarily large black holes with topology S. (2) In the presence of a black hole or a black string, there are expanding bubbles (with de Sitter geometry) which ...
