Vaidya black hole in non-stationary de Sitter space: Hawking’s temperature

In this paper we present a class of non-stationary solutions of Einstein’s field equations describing embedded Vaidya-de Sitter black holes with a cosmological variable function Λ(u). The Vaidya-de Sitter black hole is interpreted as the radiating Vaidya black hole is embedded into the non-stationary de Sitter space with variable Λ(u). The energy-momentum tensor of the Vaidya-de Sitter black hole is expressed as the sum of the energy-momentum tensors of the Vaidya null fluid and that of the non-stationary de Sitter field, and satisfies the energy conservation law. We study the energy conditions (like weak, strong and dominant conditions) for the energy-momentum tensor. We find the violation of the strong energy condition due to the negative pressure and leading to a repulsive gravitational force of the matter field associated with Λ(u) in the space-time. We also find that the time-like vector field for an observer in the Vaidya-de Sitter space is expanding, accelerating, shearing and non-rotating. It is also found that the space-time geometry of non-stationary Vaidya-de Sitter solution with variable Λ(u) is Petrov type D in the classification of space-times. We also find the Vaidya-de Sitter black hole radiating with a thermal temperature proportional to the surface gravity and entropy also proportional to the area of the cosmological black hole horizon.     

Low-frequency electromagnetic radiation of a Schwarzschild black hole in a test nonuniform magnetic field

The electromagnetic radiation process of a Schwarzschild black hole moving in the nonuniform magnetic field is investigated. The total flux of radiation was obtained. A theoretical calculation has been carried out under the test magnetic field assumption, i.e., energy-momentum tensor does not disturb Schwarzschild background metric. The technique of the Teukolsky equation has been used. The Greens function from the low-frequency solution following Starobinsky and Churilov (1973) has been derived. It was found that black hole radiates nearly 60 per cent of conducting sphere under the same conditions.     

Energy of a Stringy Charged Black Hole in the Teleparallel Gravity

We use the teleparallel geometry analog of the Møller energy-momentum complex to calculate the energy distribution (due to matter plus field including gravity) of a charged black hole solution in heterotic string theory. We find the same energy distribution as obtained by Gad who investigated the same problem by using the Møller energy-momentum complex in general relativity. The total energy depends on the black hole mass M and charge Q. The energy obtained is also independent of the teleparallel dimensionless coupling constant, which means that it is valid not only in the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity, but also in any teleparallel model. Furthermore, our results also sustains (a) the importance of the energy-momentum definitions in the evaluation of the energy distribution of a given spacetime and (b) the viewpoint of Lessner that the Møller energy-momentum complex is a powerful concept of energy and momentum.     

Non-relativistic matter and dark energy in a quantum conformal model

We consider a generalization of the Standard Model whose action displays conformal invariance in d dimensions. The model contains a strongly coupled dark matter sector which breaks conformal symmetry dynamically. The model evades conformal anomaly and leads to identically zero vacuum energy in flat space-time. Hence it does not suffer from the problem of fine tuning of the cosmological constant. We determine the contribution of non-relativistic matter to the energy-momentum tensor and determine a parameter regime in which it approximately reduces to the standard result. We show how dark energy and dark matter arises in this model. We discuss the parameter range for which the model reduces to the ΛCDM model and hence is consistent with observations.     

Holographic dark energy with linearly varying deceleration parameter and escaping big rip singularity of the Bianchi type-V universe

The present work deals with the accretion of two minimally interacting fluids: dark matter and a hypothetical isotropic fluid as the holographic dark energy components onto black hole and wormhole in a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi type-V universe. To obtain an exact solution of the Einstein’s field equations, we use the assumption of linearly varying deceleration parameter. Solution describes effectively the actual acceleration and indicates a big rip type future singularity of the universe. We have studied the evolution of the mass of black hole and the wormhole embedded in this anisotropic universe in order to reproduce a stable universe protected against future-time singularity. It is observed that the accretion of these dark components leads to a gradual decrease and increase of black hole and wormhole mass respectively. Finally, we have found that contrary to our previous case (Sarkar in Astrophys. Space. Sci. 341:651, 2014a), the big rip singularity of the universe with a divergent Hubble parameter of this dark energy model may be avoided by a big trip.     

Geodesics and geodesic deviation in static charged black holes

The radial motion along null geodesics in static charged black hole space–times, in particular, the Reissner–Nordström and stringy charged black holes, are studied. We analyzed the properties of the effective potential. The circular photon orbits in these space–times are investigated. We found that the radius of circular photon orbits in both charged black holes are different and differ from that given in Schwarzschild space–time. We studied the physical effects of the gravitational field between two test particles in stringy charged black hole and compared the results with that given in Schwarzschild and Reissner–Nordström black holes.     

Isofrequency pairing of circular orbits in Schwarzschild spacetime in the presence of magnetic field

We study isofrequency pairing of the circular non-geodesic orbits in the vicinity of the Schwarzschild black hole immersed in external asymptotically uniform magnetic field. The dependence of the isofrequency pairing of non-geodesic orbits from the special quantities, such as radius of the innermost stable circular orbits (ISCO), radius of the circular orbits (r _b ) at the limit e(eccentricity)→0, and from the value of the small quantity ξ=(r _b ?r _ISCO) of the particles moving around the Schwarzschild black hole in the presence of the magnetic field has been found. It is shown that presence of the magnetic field gives rise to the r _ISCO and r _b of the particles to be slightly shifted from black hole and the contribution of the quantity ξ decreases the amount of isofrequency pairing of non-geodesic orbits due to the reduction of the surface of the region between the separatrix and circular-orbit duals (COD). We study the dependence of surface of region where particles can move and isofrequency pairing of non-geodesic orbits occur around the Schwarzschild black hole from the magnetic field. We find a decrease of nearly (7–10) % for the maximal values of the magnetic field B～10⁶–10⁷ Gauss in the surface of region where isofrequency pairing occurs around central object with compare to the one around Schwarzschild black hole without magnetic field. This result implies that it makes easier to identify signals through the astrophysical observations of compact objects in the presence of magnetic field.     

Gravitationless black holes

A gravitationless black hole model is proposed in accord with a five-dimensional fully covariant Kaluza-Klein (K-K) theory with a scalar field, which unifies the four-dimensional Einsteinian general theory of relativity and Maxwellian electromagnetic theory. It is shown that a dense compact core of a star, when it collapses to a critical density, suddenly turns off or shields its gravitational field. The core, if its mass exceeds an upper limit, directly collapses into a black hole. Otherwise, the extremely large pressure, as the gravity is turned off, immediately stops the collapse and drives the mantle material of supernova moving outward, which leads to an impulsive explosion and forms a neutron star as a remnant. A neutron star can further evolve into a black hole when it accretes enough matter from a companion star such that the total mass exceeds a lower limit. The black hole in the K-K theory is gravitationless at the surface because the scalar field is infinitely strong, which varies the equivalent gravitational constant to zero. In general, a star, at the end of its evolution, is relatively harder to collapse into a gravitationless K-K black hole than a strong gravitational Schwarzschild black hole. This is consistent with the observation of some very massive stars to form neutron stars rather than expected black holes. In addition, the gravitationless K-K black hole should be easier to generate jets than a Schwarzschild black hole.     

Thermodynamical analysis of acoustic Schwarzschild black hole

In this paper, we analyze the thermodynamic properties of acoustic Schwarzschild black holes with its parameter. The study is conducted in the extended phase space displaying the phase transition. This phase transition is examined through Gibbs free energy, specific heat, and heat capacity. Later, we discuss the thermal stability of acoustic black holes through Hawking temperature by identifying their stable and unstable regions. We calculate the corrected entropy to examine the thermal fluctuations. Through the corrected entropy we observe that there is no fluctuation in the case of small black holes. We also discuss the energy emission process from acoustic black holes. Moreover, we employ the generalized uncertainty principle to obtain a modified Lagrangian equation. We analyze the tunneling and Hawking temperature of the acoustic Schwarzschild black hole after solving the field equations.     

Surface vacuum energy and stresses on a brane in AdS space with an application to the brane-world model

The vacuum expectations of the surface energy-momentum tensor generated on a brane in AdS space-time by quantum fluctuations of a scalar field with an arbitrary coupling parameter are studied. It is assumed that the field satisfies mixed boundary conditions on the brane. A generalized zeta function method is used as a regularization procedure. Two regions, located to the left (L-region) and right (R-region) of the brane, are considered. It is shown that the surface energies for both these regions contain pole and finite contributions. Analytic expressions are derived for both parts. When calculating the total surface energy including the contributions from the L- and R-regions, the pole terms add out in odd spatial dimensions. The surface energy-momentum tensor induced by vacuum quantum effects corresponds to the generation of a cosmological constant on the brane. These results are applied to the second Randall-Sundrum model.Translated from Astrofizika, Vol. 48, No. 1, pp. 151–164 (February 2005).     

(n+1)-dimensional Lorentzian wormholes in an expanding cosmological background

We discuss (n+1)-dimensional dynamical wormholes in an evolving cosmological background with a throat expanding with time. These solutions are examined in the general relativity framework. A linear relation between diagonal elements of an anisotropic energy-momentum tensor is used to obtain the solutions. The energy-momentum tensor elements approach the vacuum case when we are far from the central object for one class of solutions. Finally, we discuss the energy-momentum tensor which supports this geometry, taking into account the energy conditions.     

Dynamics of Bianchi I universe with magnetized anisotropic Dark Energy

We study Bianchi type I cosmological model in the presence of magnetized anisotropic dark energy. The energy-momentum tensor consists of anisotropic fluid with anisotropic EoS p=ω ρ and a uniform magnetic field of energy density ρ _B . We obtain exact solutions to the field equations using the condition that expansion is proportional to the shear scalar. The physical behavior of the model is discussed with and without magnetic field. We conclude that universe model as well as anisotropic fluid do not approach isotropy through the evolution of the universe.     

String black holes as particle accelerators to arbitrarily high energy

We show that an extremal Gibbons-Maeda-Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger black hole may act as a particle accelerator with arbitrarily high energy when two uncharged particles falling freely from rest to infinity on the near horizon. We show that the center of mass energy of collision is independent of the extreme fine tuning of the angular momentum of the colliding particles. We further show that the center of mass energy of collisions of particles at the ISCO (r _ISCO ) or at the photon orbit (r _ph ) or at the marginally bound circular orbit (r _mb ) i.e. at r≡r _ISCO =r _ph =r _mb =2M could be arbitrarily large for the aforementioned space-time, which is quite different from the Schwarzschild and the Reissner-Nordstrøm space-time. For non-extremal GMGHS space-time the CM energy is finite and depends upon the asymptotic value of the dilation field (? ₀).     

Dissipative accretion flows around a rotating black hole

We study the dynamical structure of a cooling dominated rotating accretion flow around a spinning black hole. We show that non-linear phenomena such as shock waves can be studied in terms of only three flow parameters, namely the specific energy     , the specific angular momentum (λ) and the accretion rate     of the flow. We present all possible accretion solutions. We find that a significant region of the parameter space in the     plane allows global accretion shock solutions. The effective area of the parameter space for which the Rankine–Hugoniot shocks are possible is maximum when the flow is dissipation-free. It decreases with the increase of cooling effects and finally disappears when the cooling is high enough. We show that shock forms further away when the black hole is rotating compared to the solution around a Schwarzschild black hole with identical flow parameters at a large distance. However, in a normalized sense, the flow parameters for which the shocks form around the rotating black holes are produced shocks closer to the black hole. The location of the shock is also dictated by the cooling efficiency in that higher the accretion rate     , the closer is the shock location. We believe that some of the high-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations may be due to the flows with higher accretion rate around the rotating black holes.     

Reversible-process black hole thermodynamics

Bekenstein, Hawking, Gibbons and Perry have discussed the case of placing a Schwarzschild black hole inside an ideal, reflecting box, thereby setting up an equilibrium state. In this paper, we discuss more generally the thennodynamical properties of such a system. Starting from adiabatic expansion of the system, we are naturally led to the definition of total entropy and of black hole entropy. We next point out the two conditions for stable equilibrium between the black hole and the radiation, V < V_E and E_r < M/4 are not equivalent: only the former is necessary and sufficient. Lastly, we examine three quasi-static processes of evaporation of the black hole, expansion at constant energy, energy release at constant volume and adiabatic expansion.     

Evaporating quantum Lukewarm black holes final state from back-reaction corrections of quantum scalar fields

We obtain renormalized stress tensor of a mass-less, charge-less dynamical quantum scalar field, minimally coupled with a spherically symmetric static Lukewarm black hole. In two dimensional analog the minimal coupling reduces to the conformal coupling and the stress tensor is found to be determined by the nonlocal contribution of the anomalous trace and some additional parameters in close relation to the work presented by Christensen and Fulling. Lukewarm black holes are a special class of Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter space times where its electric charge is equal to its mass. Having the obtained renormalized stress tensor we attempt to obtain a time-independent solution of the well known metric back reaction equation. Mathematical derivations predict that the final state of an evaporating quantum Lukewarm black hole reduces to a remnant stable mini black hole with moved locations of the horizons. Namely the perturbed black hole (cosmological) horizon is compressed (extended) to scales which is smaller (larger) than the corresponding classical radius of the event horizons. Hence there is not obtained an deviation on the cosmic sensor-ship hypothesis.     

Extreme gravitational lensing near rotating black holes

We describe a new approach to calculating photon trajectories and gravitational lensing effects in the strong gravitational field of the Kerr black hole. These techniques are applied to explore both the imaging and spectral properties of photons emitted from an accretion disc, which perform multiple orbits of the central mass before escaping to infinity. Viewed at large inclinations, these higher-order photons contribute ∼20 per cent of the total luminosity of the system for a Schwarzschild hole, while for an extreme Kerr black hole this fraction rises to ∼60 per cent. In more realistic models, these photons will be reabsorbed by the disc at large distances from the hole, but this returning radiation could provide a physical mechanism to resolve the discrepancy between the predicted and observed optical/ultraviolet colours in active galactic nuclei. Conversely, at low inclinations, higher-order images reintercept the disc plane close to the black hole, so need not be absorbed by the disc if this is within the plunging region. These photons form a bright ring carrying approximately 10 per cent of the total disc luminosity for a Schwarzschild black hole. The spatial separation between the inner edge of the disc and the ring is similar to the size of the event horizon. This is resolvable for supermassive black holes with proposed X-ray interferometery missions such as the Microarcsecond X-ray Imaging Mission (MAXIM), and so has the potential to provide an observational test of strong field gravity.     

Quantum corrections for ABGB black hole

In this paper, we study quantum corrections to the temperature and entropy of a regular Ayón-Beato-García-Bronnikov black hole solution by using tunneling approach beyond semiclassical approximation. We use the first law of black hole thermodynamics as a differential of entropy with two parameters, mass and charge. It is found that the leading order correction to the entropy is of logarithmic form. In the absence of the charge, i.e., e=0, these corrections approximate the corresponding corrections for the Schwarzschild black hole.     

Orbital dynamics of the gravitational field in Bardeen space-time

In this paper, the orbital dynamics of the gravitational field in Bardeen space-time are investigated. The equations of the particle’s orbital motion are given by solving the Lagrangian equation, and the stability and types of orbits are studied by means of analysing the effective potential of particles. Also, with the help of phase-plane method, the closed and non-closed orbits of test particle are analysed. We find that the stability and types of orbits in the Bardeen space-time are determined not only by the particles’ energy but also by the angular momentum. And for q=0.5M and b<3.3731M, absorbed by the black hole is the only fate of the test particle. We also find that the position of the innermost stable circular orbit of Bardeen black hole occurs at r _min =5.5722M.
