Black plane solutions in four dimensional spacetimes

arXiv:gr-qc/9609065 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.54.4891

Abstract

The static, plane symmetric solutions and cylindrically symmetric solutions of Einstein-Maxwell equations with a negative cosmological constant are investigated. These black configurations are asymptotically anti-de Sitter not only in the transverse directions, but also in the membrane or string directions. Their causal structure is similar to that of Reissner-Nordström black holes, but their Hawking temperature goes with , where is the ADM mass density. We also discuss the static plane solutions in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton gravity with a Liouville-type dilaton potential. The presence of the dilaton field changes drastically the structure of solutions. They are asymptotically ``anti-de Sitter'' or ``de Sitter'' depending on the parameters in the theory.
