GRAVITATIONAL EQUILIBRIUM in THE PRESENCE of a POSITIVE COSMOLOGICAL CONSTANT
We reconsider the virial theorem in the presence of a positive cosmological constant Λ. Assuming steady state, we derive an inequality of the form ρ ≥ A(Λ/4πGN ) for the mean density ρ of the astrophysical object. The parameter A depends only on the shape of the object. With a minimum at Asphere = 2, its value can increase by several orders of magnitude as the shape of the object deviates from ...
متن کاملGravitational Gauge Fields and the Cosmological Constant
ADSTRACT We describe field theories for which the action is completely independent of the metric and connection of the space-time manifold. The metric in our approach is no more a fundamental field than a hadron field is a fundamental field in &CD. The fundamental fields in the action are O(5) gauge fields and combinations of these fields are interpreted as the metric and connection so that con...
متن کاملGravitational Perfect Fluid Collapse With Cosmological Constant
In this paper, the effect of a positive cosmological constant on spherically symmetric collapse with perfect fluid has been investigated. The matching conditions between static exterior and non-static interior spacetimes are given in the presence of a cosmological constant. We also study the apparent horizons and their physical significance. It is concluded that the cosmological constant slows ...
متن کاملVanishing Cosmological Constant via Gravitational S-Duality
We study S-duality transformations that mix the graviton with various forms of matter. In the case of matter in the form of a 3-form field, the dual of an (A)dS space time – with arbitrary curvature – is seen to be flat Minkowski space time, if the 3-form field has vanishing field strength before the duality transformation. Then we show that the Schwarzschild metric can be obtained as a suitabl...
متن کاملGravitational Dust Collapse with Cosmological Constant
In this paper, we study the effect of a positive cosmological constant on spherically symmetric dust collapse. We take the FRW metric in the interior region whereas Schwarzschild-de Sitter in the exterior region. The matching conditions between exterior and interior spacetimes are given in the presence of a cosmological constant. We also discuss the apparent horizons and their physical signific...
