Mode-coupling in rotating gravitational collapse: Gravitational and electromagnetic perturbations

We consider the late-time evolution of gravitational and electromagnetic perturbations in realistic rotating Kerr spacetimes. We give a detailed analysis of the mode-coupling phenomena in rotating gravitational collapse. A consequence of this phenomena is that the late-time tail is dominated by modes which, in general, may have an angular distribution different from the original one. In additio...

Unification of Electromagnetic Interactions and Gravitational Interactions

Unified theory of gravitational interactions and electromagnetic interactions is discussed in this paper. Based on gauge principle, electromagnetic interactions and gravitational interactions are formulated in the same manner and are unified in a semi-direct product group of U(1) Abel gauge group and gravitational gauge group. email address: [email protected] mailing address

Electromagnetic Resolution of Curvature and Gravitational Instantons

Electromagnetic and gravitational scattering at Planckian energies.

The scattering of pointlike particles at very large center of mass energies and fixed low momentum transfers, occurring due to both their electromagnetic and gravitational interactions is re-examined in the particular case when one of the particles carries magnetic charge. At Planckian center-of-mass energies, when gravitational dominance is normally expected, the presence of magnetic charge is...

Stability of Gravitational and Electromagnetic Geons

Recent work on gravitational geons is extended to examine the stability properties of gravitational and electromagnetic geon constructs. All types of geons must possess the property of regularity, self-consistency and quasistability on a time-scale much longer than the period of the comprising waves. Standard perturbation theory, modified to accommodate timeaveraged fields, is used to test the ...
