Conformal compactification and affine-null metric formulation of the Einstein equations

Thomas Mädler, Emanuel Gallo

In principle, global properties of solution of Einstein equations need to be addressed using the conformal Einstein equations, because this conformal compactification allows a clea…

Characteristic initial value problems for the Einstein-Maxwell-scalar field equations in spherical symmetry

Thomas Mädler, Radouane Gannouji, Emanuel Gallo

The characteristic initial boundary problem is discussed in spherical symmetry for the Einstein-Maxwell-scalar field equations. It is formulated for an affine-null metric and the r…

Affine-null metric formulation of General Relativity at two intersecting null hypersurfaces

Thomas Mädler

We revisit Winicour's affine-null metric initial value formulation of General Relativity, where the characteristic initial value formulation is set up with a null metric having two…

Stellar twins determine the distance of the Pleiades

Thomas Mädler, Paula Jofré, Gerard Gilmore +5

Since the release of the Hipparcos catalog in 1997, the distance to the Pleiades open cluster has been heavily debated. The distance obtained from Hipparcos and those by alternativ…

Simple, explicitly time-dependent and regular solutions of the linearized vacuum Einstein equations on a null cone

Thomas Mädler

Perturbations of the linearized vacuum Einstein equations on a null cone in the Bondi-Sachs formulation of General Relativity can be derived from a single master function with spin…

The Bondi-Sachs metric at the vertex of a null cone: axially symmetric vacuum solutions

Thomas Mädler, Ewald Müller

In the Bondi-Sachs formulation of General Relativity space-time is foliated via a family of null cones. If these null cones are defined such that their vertices are traced by a reg…
