Discovering the Kerr and Kerr-Schild metrics
The story of this metric begins with a paper by Alexei Zinovievich Petrov (1954) where the simultaneous invariants and canonical forms for the metric and conformal tensor are calculated at a general point in an Einstein space. This paper took a while to be appreciated in the West, probably because the Kazan State University journal was not readily available, but Felix Pirani (1957) used it as t...
متن کاملThe Kerr/CFT Correspondence
Quantum gravity in the region very near the horizon of an extreme Kerr black hole (whose angular momentum and mass are related by J = GM2) is considered. It is shown that consistent boundary conditions exist, for which the asymptotic symmetry generators form one copy of the Virasoro algebra with central charge cL = 12J ~ . This implies that the near-horizon quantum states can be identified with...
متن کاملKerr-Bolt Spacetimes and Kerr/CFT Correspondence
We investigate the recently proposed Kerr/CFT correspondence in the context of rotating spacetimes with a NUT twist. The Kerr/CFT correspondence states that the near-horizon states of an extremal four (or higher) dimensional black hole could be identified with a certain chiral conformal field theory. The corresponding Virasoro algebra is generated with a class of diffeomorphism which preserves ...
متن کاملjohn steinbeck: friend of the american common man
in his last years of life americans had almost forgotton steinbeck, and those who had not, occasionally criticized him for supporting and praising the u. s. military intervention in the vietnam war. althought ateinbeck incorporates different themes into his works, each one bears many signs of his concern and sympathy for america and the american common people in particular. steinbecks to a god ...
15 صفحه اولSlices of the Kerr ergosurface
The intrinsic geometry of the Kerr ergosurface on constant BoyerLindquist (BL), Kerr, and Doran time slices is characterized. Unlike the BL slice, which had been previously studied, the other slices (i) do not have conical singularities at the poles (except the Doran slice in the extremal limit), (ii) have finite polar circumference in the extremal limit, and (iii) for sufficiently large spin p...
