New Regular Solutions with Axial Symmetry in Einstein-Yang-Mills Theory

Abstract

We construct new regular solutions in Einstein-Yang-Mills theory. They are static, axially symmetric and asymptotically flat. They are characterized by a pair of integers (k,n), where k is related to the polar angle and $n$ to the azimuthal angle. The known spherically and axially symmetric EYM solutions have k=1. For k>1 new solutions arise, which form two branches. They exist above a minimal value of n, that increases with k. The solutions on the lower mass branch are related to certain solutions of Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs theory, where the nodes of the Higgs field form rings.
