Critical collapse of a massive vector field
Critical gravitational collapse was first found by Choptuik[1] in simulations of a spherically symmetric massless scalar field. A natural question to pose is then how critical collapse behaves when the scalar field has a mass, since this will introduce a characteristic length that destroys the scale invariance of the field equations. This question was studied by Brady et. al.[2] The results of ...
متن کاملPhases of massive scalar field collapse
We study critical behavior in the collapse of massive spherically symmetric scalar fields. We observe two distinct types of phase transition at the threshold of black hole formation. Type II phase transitions occur when the radial extent (λ) of the initial pulse is less than the Compton wavelength (μ) of the scalar field. The critical solution is that found by Choptuik in the collapse of massle...
متن کاملUnderstanding critical collapse of a scalar field
I construct a spherically symmetric solution for a massless real scalar field minimally coupled to general relativity which is discretely self-similar (DSS) and regular. This solution coincides with the intermediate attractor found by Choptuik in critical gravitational collapse. The echoing period is ∆ = 3.4453 ± 0.0005. The solution is continued to the future self-similarity horizon, which is ...
متن کاملA new massive vector field theory
In this paper, we put forth a new massive spin-1 field theory. In contrast to the quantization of traditional vector field, the quantization of the new vector field is carried out in a natural way. The Lorentz invariance of the theory is discussed, where owing to an interesting feature of the new vector field, the Lorentz invariance has a special meaning. In term of formalism analogical to QED(...
متن کاملCritical collapse of a complex scalar field with angular momentum.
We report a new critical solution found at the threshold of axisymmetric gravitational collapse of a complex scalar field with angular momentum. To carry angular momentum the scalar field cannot be axisymmetric; however, its azimuthal dependence is defined so that the resulting stress-energy tensor and spacetime metric are axisymmetric. The critical solution found is nonspherical, discretely se...
