Hawking-Ellis type of matter on Killing horizons in symmetric spacetimes

Abstract

Spherically, plane, or hyperbolically symmetric spacetimes with an additional hypersurface orthogonal Killing vector are often called ``static'' spacetimes even if they contain regions where the Killing vector is non-timelike. It seems to be widely believed that an energy-momentum tenor for a matter field compatible with these spacetimes in general relativity is of the Hawking-Ellis type I everywhere. We show in arbitrary $n(\ge 3)$ dimensions that, contrary to popular belief, a matter field on a Killing horizon is not necessarily of type I but can be of type II. Such a type-II matter field on a Killing horizon is realized in the Gibbons-Maeda-Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger black hole in the Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton system and may be interpreted as a mixture of a particular anisotropic fluid and a null dust fluid.
