Komar fluxes of circularly polarized light beams and cylindrical metrics
D. Lynden-Bell, J. Bičák
The mass per unit length of a cylindrical system can be found from its external metric as can its angular momentum. Can the fluxes of energy, momentum and angular momentum along th…
On Fast Linear Gravitational Dragging
D. Lynden-Bell, J. Bičák, J. Katz
A new formula is given for the fast linear gravitational dragging of the inertial frame within a rapidly accelerated spherical shell of deep potential. The shell is charged and is…
Does the Universe Accelerate Equally in all Directions?
R. Cooke, D. Lynden-Bell
We employ the Union compilation of Type Ia supernovae with a maximum likelihood analysis to search for a dark energy dipole. To approach this problem, we present a simple, computat…
Electromagnetic Magic: The Relativistically Rotating Disk
D. Lynden-Bell
A closed form analytic solution is found for the electromagnetic field of the charged uniformly rotating conducting disk for all values of the tip speed up to . For it…
Russell Lecture: Dark Star Formation and Cooling Instability
D. Lynden-Bell, C. A. Tout
Optically thin cooling gas at most temperatures above 30K will make condensations by pressure pushing material into cool dense regions. This works without gravity. Cooling condensa…
Magnetic Activity in Stars, Discs and Quasars
Donald Lynden-Bell
Although magnetic fields in interstellar matter were postulated almost fifty years ago, magnetohydrodynamic theory was then much hampered by our inability to see what the magnetic…
