Scalar field and electromagnetic perturbations on Locally Rotationally Symmetric spacetimes

چکیده
We study scalar field and electromagnetic perturbations on Locally Rotationally Symmetric (LRS) 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 gaugeinvariant wave equations for the perturbation variables and thereby find the generalised Regge-Wheeler equations for these LRS class II spacetime perturbations. As illustrative examples, the results are discussed in detail for the Schwarzschild and Vaidya spacetime, and briefly for some classes of dust Universes.

متن کاملElectromagnetic perturbations of non-vacuum locally rotationally symmetric class II spacetimes
We present a method that yields three decoupled covariant equations for three complex scalars, which completely govern electromagnetic perturbations of nonvacuum, locally rotationally symmetric class II spacetimes. One of these equations is equivalent to the previously established generalized Regge-Wheeler equation for electromagnetic fields. The remaining two equations are a direct generalizat...
متن کامل1+1+2 gravitational perturbations on LRS class II space-times: GEM scalar harmonic amplitudes
Abstract. This is the third in a series of papers which considers first-order gaugeinvariant and covariant gravitational perturbations to locally rotationally symmetric (LRS) class II space-times. In this paper we complete our analysis of the firstorder gravito-electromagnetic (GEM) system by showing how to derive three decoupled equations governing the GEM scalar fields. One of these is for th...
متن کاملSymmetries of Locally Rotationally Symmetric Models
Matter collineations of locally rotationally symmetric spacetimes are considered. These are investigated when the energy-momentum tensor is degenerate. We know that the degenerate case provides infinite dimensional matter collineations in most of the cases. However, an interesting case arises where we obtain proper matter collineations. We also solve the constraint equations for a particular ca...
متن کاملPerturbed Self-Similar Massless Scalar Field in Spherically Symmetric Spaceimes
In this paper, we investigate the linear perturbations of the spherically symmetric spacetimes with kinematic self-similarity of the second kind. The massless scalar field equations are solved which yield the background and an exact solutions for the perturbed equations. We discuss the boundary conditions of the resulting perturbed solutions. The possible perturbation modes turn out to be stabl...
