A teleparallel effective geometry for Einstein's unified field theory | L.C. Garcia de Andrade
; | Date: |
16 Dec 2004 | Subject: | gr-qc | Abstract: | Riemannian and teleparallel geometrical approaches to the investigation of Maxwell electrodynamics shown that a unified field theory of gravitation and electromagnetism a la Einstein can be obtained from a stationary metric. This idea contrasts with the recently proposed pre-metric electrodynamics by Hehl and Obukhov. In the teleparallel case the definition of the electric field is obtained straightforward from the spacetime metric and the orthonormal basis frame of teleparallelism. In this case the only nonvanishing component of Cartan torsion is defined as the effective electric field. In this approach the gravitational potentials or metric coefficients are expressed in terms of the effective or analogous electric and magnetic potentials. Thefore the Maxwell equations in vacuum can be obtained by derivation of this electric field definition as usual. In the Riemannian case we consider an electrostatic spacetime where the Einstein equations in vacuum in the approximation of linear fields. The constraint of Einstein equations in vacuum are shown to lead or to the Coulomb equation or to a singular behaviour on the metric which would represent a kind of effective electrodynamic black hole event horizon. | Source: | arXiv, gr-qc/0501050 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
