Modelling general relativistic perfect fluids in field theoretic language | Nikolai V. Mitskievich
; | Date: |
23 Nov 1998 | Journal: | Int.J.Theor.Phys. 38 (1999) 997-1016 | Subject: | gr-qc | Affiliation: | Universidad de Guadalajara, Mexico | Abstract: | Skew-symmetric massless fields, their potentials being $r$-forms, are close analogues of Maxwell’s field (though the non-linear cases also should be considered). We observe that only two of them ($r=$2 and 3) automatically yield stress-energy tensors characteristic to normal perfect fluids. It is shown that they naturally describe both non-rotating ($r=2$) and rotating (then a combination of $r=2$ and $r=3$ fields is indispensable) general relativistic perfect fluids possessing every type of equations of state. Meanwile, a free $r=3$ field is completely equivalent to appearance of the cosmological term in Einstein’s equations. Sound waves represent perturbations propagating on the background of the $r=2$ field. Some exotic properties of these two fields are outlined. | Source: | arXiv, gr-qc/9811077 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
