Holographic Aspects of Electric-Magnetic Dualities
We review recent work on holographic aspects of electric-magnetic dualities in theories that involve conformally coupled scalars and abelian gauge fields in asymptotically AdS4 spaces. Such models are relevant for the holographic description of M-theory. We also briefly comment on some new results on the holographic properties of generalized electricmagnetic duality in gravity.
متن کاملDUALITIES IN THE CLASSICAL SUPERGRAVITY LIMITS Dualisations, dualities and a détour via 4k+2 dimensions
Duality symmetries of supergravity theories are powerful tools to restrict the number of possible actions, to link different dimensions and number of supersymmetries and might help to control quantisation. (HodgeDirac-)Dualisation of gauge potentials exchanges Noether and topological charges, equations of motion and Bianchi identities, internal rigid symmetries and gauge symmetries, local trans...
متن کاملElectric and Magnetic Fields
California Electric and Magnetic Fields Program A Project of the California Department of Health Services and the Public Health Institute INTRODUCTION Our daily use of electricity is taken for granted, yet scientific and public concern has arisen about possible health effects from electric and magnetic fields (EMF) that are created by the use of electricity. Because of this concern, the Califor...
متن کاملElectric and Magnetic Images
The method of images as applied to electrostatic, magnetostatic and electromagnetic fields is investigated. By considering the uniqueness of the field it is shown within what limits the method can safely be used, and rules are given for its use. The application of the method is illustrated by a discussion of the electric field near a cylindrical cathode and the magnetic fields near the end-wind...
