Skyrme - monopoles in scalar - tensor gravity
نویسنده
چکیده
Considering a Skyrme model with a peculiar gauging of the symmetry, monopole-like solutions exist through a topological lower bound. However, it was recently shown that these objects cannot form bound states in the limit of vanishing Skyrme coupling. Here we consider these monopoles in scalar-tensor gravity. A numerical study of the equations reveals that neither the coupling to gravity nor to the scalar dilaton nor to dilaton-gravity leads to bound multimonopole states.

متن کاملThe electrogravity transformation and global monopoles in scalar-tensor gravity
The electrogravity transformation is defined by an interchange of the “active” and “passive” electric parts of the Riemann tensor. Such a transformation has been used to find new solutions that are “dual” to the Kerr family of black hole spacetimes in general relativity. In such a case, the dual solution is a similar black hole spacetime endowed with a global monopole charge. Here, we extend th...
متن کاملGlobal Monopoles in Brans-Dicke Theory of Gravity
The gravitational field of a global monopole in the context of Brans-Dicke theory of gravity is investigated. The space-time and the scalar field generated by the monopole are obtained by solving the field equations in the weak field approximation. A comparison is made with the corresponding results predicted by General Relativity. Electronic address: [email protected] 1 Monopoles resulting ...
متن کامل2 00 6 Global monopole , dark matter and scalar tensor theory
In this article, we discuss the space-time of a global monopole field as a candidate for galactic dark matter in the context of scalar tensor theory. It is believed that our Universe in the past was denser and hotter. So the early stage of the Universe was in a systematic phase and there were no topological defects. As the Universe expands, it cools down from its hot initial state [1-3]. So the...
متن کاملAbelian Magnetic Monopoles and Topologically Massive Vector Bosons in Scalar-Tensor Gravity with Torsion Potential
A Lagrangian formulation describing the electromagnetic interaction mediated by topologically massive vector bosons between charged, spin1 2 fermions with an abelian magnetic monopole in a curved spacetime with non-minimal coupling and torsion potential is presented. The covariant field equations are obtained. The issue of coexistence of massive photons and magnetic monopoles is addressed in th...
