The No-Hair Theorem for the Abelian Higgs Model

Abstract

We consider the general procedure for proving no-hair theorems for static, spherically symmetric black holes. We apply this method to the abelian Higgs model and find a proof of the no-hair conjecture that circumvents the objections raised against the original proof due to Adler and Pearson.
