On A 5-Dimensional Spinning Cosmic String
Reinoud J. Slagter
We present a numerical solution of a stationary 5-dimensional spinning cosmic string in the Einstein-Yang-Mills (EYM) model, where the extra bulk coordinate is periodic. It tur…
Melvin solution with a dilaton potential
Eugen Radu, Reinoud J. Slagter
We find new Melvin-like solutions in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton gravity with a Liouville-type dilaton potential. The properties of the corresponding solution in Freedman-Schwarz gaug…
High-Frequency Gravitational Waves from Hairy Black Holes
Reinoud J. Slagter
We investigated the stability of the spherically symmetric non-abelian (Bartnik-McKinnon) black hole solution of the SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills system using the multiple-scale analy…
On the Causal Structure of Spinning Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs Strings
Reinoud J. Slagter
It is claimed that it will be exceedingly unlikely to obtain CTC's in the spacetime of a spinning EYMH-string. It is conjectured that the pathological problems concerning the induc…
