Ring Wormholes in D-Dimensional Einstein and Dilaton Gravity | Kirill A. Bronnikov

22 Mar 1996 | Subject: | gr-qc | Affiliation: | Universidade Federal do Espirito Santo - Vitoria - Espirito Santo - Brazil | Abstract: | On the basis of exact solutions to the Einstein-Abelian gauge-dilaton equations in $D$-dimensional gravity, the properties of static axial configurations are discussed. Solutions free of curvature singularities are selected; they can be attributed to traversible wormholes with cosmic string-like singularities at their necks. In the presence of an electromagnetic field some of these wormholes are globally regular, the string-like singularity being replaced by a set of twofold branching points. Consequences of wormhole regularity and symmetry conditions are discussed. In particular, it is shown that (i) regular, symmetric wormholes have necessarily positive masses as viewed from both asymptotics and (ii) their characteristic length scale in the big charge limit ($GM^2 ll Q^2$) is of the order of the ``classical radius" $Q^2/M$. | Source: | arXiv, gr-qc/9603037 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
