Vacuum spacetimes with toroidal null infinities
It is shown that some known solutions of Einstein’s vacuum field equations admit null infinities such that the sections of the null hypersurface at infinity are toroidal. PACS numbers: 0420G, 0420H, 0430
متن کاملChaos in Static Axisymmetric Spacetimes I : Vacuum Case
We study the motion of test particle in static axisymmetric vacuum spacetimes and discuss two criteria for strong chaos to occur: (1) a local instability measured by the Weyl curvature, and (2) a tangle of a homoclinic orbit, which is closely related to an unstable periodic orbit in general relativity. We analyze several static axisymmetric spacetimes and find that the first criterion is a suff...
متن کاملChaos in Static Axisymmetric Spacetimes II : non-vacuum case
We examine the effect of local matter on the chaotic behavior of a relativistic test particle in non-vacuum static axisymmetric spacetimes. We find that the sign of the sectional curvature in the geodesic deviation equation defined by the Riemann curvature does not always become a good tool to judge the occurrence of chaos in the non-vacuum case. However, we show that the locally unstable regio...
متن کاملMultipole moments of axisymmetric spacetimes
In this thesis we study multipole moments of axisymmetric spacetimes. Using the recursive definition of the multipole moments of Geroch and Hansen we develop a method for computing all multipole moments of a stationary axisymmetric spacetime without the use of a recursion. This is a generalisation of a method developed by Herberthson for the static case. Using Herberthson’s method we also devel...
متن کاملFormal solution of the fourth order Killing equations for stationary axisymmetric vacuum spacetimes
An analytic understanding of the geodesic structure around non-Kerr spacetimes will result in a powerful tool that could make the mapping of spacetime around massive quiescent compact objects possible. To this end, I present an analytic closed form expression for the components of a the fourth order Killing tensor for stationary axisymmetric vacuum (SAV) spacetimes. It is as yet unclear what su...
