Cosmic string in the van Stockum cylinder
نویسنده
چکیده
The low density van Stockum dust solution is extended by including an angular deficit factor. The resulting model describes a rotating Gott–Hiscock string surrounded by an annular dust atmosphere. The interior spacetime can be joined to a vacuum Levi-Civita solution with angular deficit. PACS numbers: 04.20.Jb, 04.40.−b, 98.80.Hw

EXTENSION OF van STOCKUM CYLINDER IN EINSTEIN- CARTAN THEORY
The Einstein-Cartan field equation of infinitely rotating rigid cylinder is obtained and solved using the techniques of Manko-Gutsunaev and Quevedo to describe gravitational field due to extended van-Stockum cylindrically perfect fluid distribution using improved energy-momentum tensor by Ray and Smalley.
متن کاملExact General Relativistic Rotating Disks Immersed in Rotating Dust Generated from van Stockum Solutions
A class of exact general relativistic rotating thick disks surrounded by rotating dust is constructed by applying the “displace, cut, fill and reflect” method on the van Stockum class of metrics. Two particular solutions are considered in detail. We find that the disks have annular regions with negative energy density and heat flow is present in most of the radial extension of the disk. It is s...
متن کاملRotating Cylindrical Systems and Gravitomagnetism
We discuss gravitomagnetism in connection with rotating cylindrical systems. In particular, the gravitomagnetic clock effect is investigated for the exterior vacuum field of an infinite rotating cylinder. The dependence of the clock effect on the Weyl parameters of the stationary Lewis metric is determined. We illustrate our results by means of the van Stockum spacetime. PACS numbers: 04.20.Cv;...
متن کاملTHE PC-TAU METHOD ON THE SOLUTION OF A MODEL OF AN ISOLATED COSMIC STRING
In this paper, we adapt the operational Tau Method for personal computers and apply it to a system of two nonlinear second order ordinary differential equations which are related to general relativity. The interesting behaviour this problem exhibits in its numerical treatment is discussed. In this problem, we try to use the Tau perturbation term to locate the correct solution of this nonlin...
متن کاملCan a Self-gravitating Thin Cosmic String Obey the Nambu-goto Dynamics ?
We assume that a self-gravitating string is locally described by a thin tube of matter represented by a " smoothed conical metric ". If we impose a specific constraint on the model of string then its central line obeys the Nambu-Goto dynamics in the limit where the radius of the tube tends to zero. If no constraint is added then the world sheet of the central line is totally geodesic. It is adm...
