Purely Magnetic Spacetimes
Spacetimes in which the electric part of the Weyl tensor vanishes (relative to some timelike unit vector field) are said to be purely magnetic. Examples of purely magnetic spacetimes are known and are relatively easy to construct, if no restrictions are placed on the energy-momentum tensor. However it has long been conjectured that purely magnetic vacuum spacetimes (with or without a cosmologic...
متن کاملPurely Magnetic Spacetimes
Purely magnetic spacetimes, in which the Riemann tensor satisfies Rabcdu b u d = 0 for some unit timelike vector u, are studied. The algebraic consequences for the Weyl and Ricci tensors are examined in detail and consideration given to the uniqueness of u. Some remarks concerning the nature of the congruence associated with u are made. ∗ Email:[email protected]
متن کاملElectromagnetic 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 کاملCan Purely Electromagnetic Interaction Produce Black Holes?
We show that non-linear electrodynamics allows the existence of a mechanism such that photons may be trapped in a compact domain. We call this region an Electromagnetic Black Hole (EBH).
متن کاملScalar and electromagnetic perturbations on LRS class II spacetimes
We study scalar field and electromagnetic perturbations on Locally Rotationally Symmetric class II spacetimes, exploiting a recently developed covariant and gauge-invariant perturbation formalism. From the Klein-Gordon equation and Maxwell’s equations, respectively, we derive covariant and gauge-invariant wave equations for the perturbation variables and thereby find the generalised ReggeWheele...
