Electromagnetic fields in curved spacetimes
We study the evolution of electromagnetic fields in curved spacetimes and calculate the exact wave equations of the associated electric and magnetic components. Our analysis applies to a general spacetime, is fully covariant and isolates all the sources that affect the propagation of these waves. Among others, we explicitly show how the different parts of the gravitational field act as driving ...
متن کاملMassive Spin-2 fields of Geometric Origin in Curved Spacetimes
We study the consistency of a model which includes torsion as well as the metric as dynamical fields and has massive spin-2 particle in its spectrum. The massive spin-2 mode resides in the torsion, rather than in the metric. It is known that this model is tachyonand ghost-free in Minkowski background. We show that this property remains valid and no other pathologies emerge in de Sitter and anti...
متن کاملStrings in Curved Spacetimes
Progress on the physics of strings in curved spacetime are comprehensively reviewed. We start by showing through renormalization group arguments that a meaningful quantum theory of gravity must be finite and must include all particle physics. Then, we review classical and quantum string propagation in curved spacetimes.We start by the general expansion method proposed by de Vega and Sánchez in ...
متن کاملSuperstrings on Curved Spacetimes
In this lecture I summarize recent developments on strings propagating in curved spacetime. Exact conformal field theories that describe gravitational backgrounds such as black holes and more intricate gravitational singularities have been discovered and investigated at the classical and quantum level. These models are described by gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models, or equivalently current algeb...
متن کاملFuzzy BIons in Curved Spacetimes
The non-abelian Dirac-Born-Infeld action is used to construct the D2-brane from multiple D0-branes in the curved spacetimes. After choosing the matrix elements as the coordinates of the D0-branes we obtain a simple formula of the Lagrangian for the system in a class of the curved background. Using the formula we first re-examine the system in the flat spacetime and show that, in addition to the...
