  • Kerr-Newman-Ads Black Hole Surrounded by Perfect Fluid Matter
    Kerr-Newman-AdS Black Hole Surrounded by Perfect Fluid Matter in Rastall Gravity Zhaoyi Xu,1,2,3,4 Xian Hou,1,3,4 Xiaobo Gong,1,2,3,4 Jiancheng Wang 1,2,3,4 ABSTRACT The Rastall gravity is the modified Einstein general relativity, in which the µν ,ν energy-momentum conservation law is generalized to T ;µ = λR . In this work, we derive the Kerr-Newman-AdS (KN-AdS) black hole solutions surrounded by the perfect fluid matter in the Rastall gravity using the Newman-Janis method and Mathematica package. We then discuss the black hole properties surrounded by two kinds of specific perfect fluid matter, the dark energy (ω = 2/3) and the − perfect fluid dark matter (ω = 1/3). Firstly, the Rastall parameter κλ could be − constrained by the weak energy condition and strong energy condition. Secondly, by analyzing the number of roots in the horizon equation, we get the range of the perfect fluid matter intensity α, which depends on the black hole mass M and the Rastall parameter κλ. Thirdly, we study the influence of the perfect fluid dark matter and dark energy on the ergosphere. We find that the perfect fluid dark matter has significant effects on the ergosphere size, while the dark energy has smaller effects. Finally, we find that the perfect fluid matter does not change the singularity of the black hole. Furthermore, we investigate the rotation velocity in the equatorial plane for the KN-AdS black hole with dark energy and perfect fluid dark matter. We propose that the rotation curve diversity in Low Surface Brightness galaxies could be explained in the framework of the Rastall gravity when both the perfect fluid dark matter halo and the baryon disk are taken into account.

  • An Introduction to Relativistic Hydrodynamics
    Stellar Fluid Dynamics and Numerical Simulations: From the Sun to Neutron Stars M. Rieutord and B. Dubrulle (eds) EAS Publications Series, 21 (2006) 43–79 AN INTRODUCTION TO RELATIVISTIC HYDRODYNAMICS E. Gourgoulhon1 Abstract. This lecture provides some introduction to perfect fluid dy- namics within the framework of general relativity. The presentation is based on the Carter-Lichnerowicz approach. It has the advantage over the more traditional approach of leading very straightforwardly to important conservation laws, such as the relativistic generalizations of Bernoulli’s theorem or Kelvin’s circulation theorem. It also permits to get easily first integrals of motion which are particularly useful for com- puting equilibrium configurations of relativistic stars in rotation or in binary systems. The presentation is relatively self-contained and does not require any aprioriknowledge of general relativity. In particular, the three types of derivatives involved in relativistic hydrodynamics are introduced in detail: this concerns the Lie, exterior and covariant derivatives. 1 Introduction Relativistic fluid dynamics is an important topic of modern astrophysics in at least three contexts: (i) jets emerging at relativistic speed from the core of active galactic nuclei or from microquasars, and certainly from gamma-ray burst central engines, (ii) compact stars and flows around black holes, and (iii) cosmology. Notice that for items (ii) and (iii) general relativity is necessary, whereas special relativity is sufficient for (i). We provide here an introduction to relativistic perfect fluid dynamics in the framework of general relativity, so that it is applicable to all themes (i) to (iii). However, we shall make a limited usage of general relativistic concepts.

It involves introducing a fluid variable, the kinetic mass density, which is needed to define the most gen- eral energy-momentum tensor for perfect fluids. Our analysis leads to corrections to the Euler equations for perfect fluids that might be observable in hydrodynamic fluid experiments. We also derive new expressions for the speed of sound in perfect fluids that reduce to the known perfect fluid models when boost symmetry is present. Our framework can also be adapted to (non-relativistic) scale invariant fluids with critical exponent z. We show that perfect fluids cannot have Schr¨odingersymmetry unless z = 2. For generic values of z there can be fluids with Lifshitz symmetry, and as a concrete example, we work out in detail the thermodynamics and fluid description of an ideal gas of Lifshitz particles and compute the speed of sound for the classical and quantum Lifshitz gases. arXiv:1710.04708v3 [hep-th] 14 May 2018 Contents 1 Introduction1 2 Perfect fluids3 2.1 Thermodynamics and kinetic mass density .

  • Curvature and the Stress-Energy Tensor
    Orthonormal Tetrads, continued Here’s another example, that combines local frame calculations with more global analysis. Suppose you have a particle at rest at infinity, and you drop it radially into a Schwarzschild black hole. What is the radial velocity as seen by a local static observer at radius r? The particle being at rest at infinity means that its total energy is ut = −1. Radial motion has θ and φ components zero, so u2 = −1 means r t u ur + u ut = −1 g (ur)2 + gttu2 = −1 rr t (1) (ur)2/(1 − 2M/r) − 1/(1 − 2M/r) = −1 (ur)2 = 2M/r . r Therefore, u = dr/dτ = q2M/r. The radial velocity seen by a local static observer is vrˆ = urˆ/utˆ rˆ = −u /utˆ − rˆ r t = e ru /(e tˆut) (2) −1/2 r −1/2 = −(1 − 2M/r) u /[(1 − 2M/r) ut] = q2M/r . Therefore, the locally measured radial velocity is just the same as the Newtonian expression, when Schwarzschild coordinates are used. By comparison, the radial velocity as measured at infinity is dr vr = = ur/ut = ur/(gttu )=(1 − 2M/r)ur = (1 − 2M/r) 2M/r . (3) dt t q This drops to zero at the horizon. Note that there is one factor of (1 − 2M/r)1/2 from the redshift and one from the change in the radial coordinate. Geodesic Deviation and Spacetime Curvature Previously we talked about geodesics, the paths of freely falling particles. We also indicated early on that the only “force” that gravity can exert on a particle is a tidal force.

  • Dynamics of Ideal Fluids
    2 Dynamics of Ideal Fluids The basic goal of any fluid-dynamical study is to provide (1) a complete description of the motion of the fluid at any instant of time, and hence of the kinematics of the flow, and (2) a description of how the motion changes in time in response to applied forces, and hence of the dynamics of the flow. We begin our study of astrophysical fluid dynamics by analyzing the motion of a compressible ideal fluid (i.e., a nonviscous and nonconducting gas); this allows us to formulate very simply both the basic conservation laws for the mass, momentum, and energy of a fluid parcel (which govern its dynamics) and the essentially geometrical relationships that specify its kinematics. Because we are concerned here with the macroscopic proper- ties of the flow of a physically uncomplicated medium, it is both natural and advantageous to adopt a purely continuum point of view. In the next chapter, where we seek to understand the important role played by internal processes of the gas in transporting energy and momentum within the fluid, we must carry out a deeper analysis based on a kinetic-theory view; even then we shall see that the continuum approach yields useful results and insights. We pursue this line of inquiry even further in Chapters 6 and 7, where we extend the analysis to include the interaction between radiation and both the internal state, and the macroscopic dynamics, of the material. 2.1 Kinematics 15. Veloci~y and Acceleration 1n developing descriptions of fluid motion it is fruitful to work in two different frames of reference, each of which has distinct advantages in certain situations.

  • Relativistic Fluid Dynamics
    Relativistic Fluid Dynamcis 44 Relativistic Fluid Dynamics Jason Olsthoorn University of Waterloo [email protected] Abstract: Understanding the evolution of a many bodied system is still a very important problem in modern physics. Fluid mechanics provides a mechanism to determine the macroscopic motion of the system. These equations are additionally complicated when we consider a fluid moving in a curved spacetime. The following paper discusses the derivation of the relativistic equations of motion, uses numerical methods to provide solutions to these equations and describes how the curvature of spacetime is modified by the fluid. 1 Introduction Traditionally, a fluid is defined as a substance that does not support a shear stress. This definition is somewhat lacking, but it does present the idea that fluids “flow” and distort. Any non-rigid multi-bodied state can, under a suitable continuum hypothesis, be thus described as a fluid and will follow certain equations of motion. Here, we define a relativistic fluid as classical fluid modified by the laws of special relativity and/or curved spacetime (general relativity). The following paper attempts to provide a basic introduction to these equations of motion of a relativistic fluid. Fluid dynamics is an approximation of the motion of a many body system. A true description of the evolution of a fluid would, in principle, need to account for the motion of each individual particle. However, this description is impractical and of no substantial worth when modelling sufficiently large systems. Therefore, provided that the desired level of accuracy is much lower than the continuum approximation, it is acceptable to consider a system as a fluid.

This article is distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduc- tion in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Abstract In this document a set of exact solutions is obtained by using the model of a perfect fluid on an homogeneous and anisotropic space-time that belongs to (Local Rotational Symmetry) Petrov's type D. This solutions represent the possible scenarios of a Universe for which the pressure P and the energetic density µ of a fluid are proportional (P = λµ), where λ can have any value. Hence, the aforementioned solution has importance for the fluid models with standard matter (λ 2 [0; 1=3]), and also for other models, like quintessence, dark energy, phantom, ekpyrotic etc. It is established that for any state of the fluid, there are two possible solutions that depend on the matter expanding faster on a perpendicular coordinate on a plane, rather tan the plane itself, or if the situation is the opposite. Possible singularities are studied, and cases where the solutions are not singular in t = 0 are established; moreover, to the possibility for the solutions, depending of the t values, to become isotropic, pointing out that going from a model that was anisotropic at the beginning to an isotropic one with the augmentation of t, depends on whether the pressure P of the fluid is lower or not than the density of the energy µ.

    PHYSICAL REVIEW D 94, 025034 (2016) Thermodynamics of perfect fluids from scalar field theory † ‡ Guillermo Ballesteros,1,2,* Denis Comelli,3, and Luigi Pilo4,5, 1Institut de Physique Théorique, Université Paris Saclay, CEA, CNRS91191 Gif-sur-Yvette, France 2CERN, Theory Division, 1211 Geneva, Switzerland 3INFN, Sezione di Ferrara, 44124 Ferrara, Italy 4Dipartimento di Scienze Fisiche e Chimiche, Università di L’Aquila, I-67010 L’Aquila, Italy 5INFN, Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso, I-67010 Assergi, Italy (Received 1 June 2016; published 27 July 2016) The low-energy dynamics of relativistic continuous media is given by a shift-symmetric effective theory of four scalar fields. These scalars describe the embedding in spacetime of the medium and play the role of Stückelberg fields for spontaneously broken spatial and time translations. Perfect fluids are selected imposing a stronger symmetry group or reducing the field content to a single scalar. We explore the relation between the field theory description of perfect fluids to thermodynamics. By drawing the correspondence between the allowed operators at leading order in derivatives and the thermodynamic variables, we find that a complete thermodynamic picture requires the four Stückelberg fields. We show that thermodynamic stability plus the null-energy condition imply dynamical stability. We also argue that a consistent thermodynamic interpretation is not possible if any of the shift symmetries is explicitly broken. DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevD.94.025034 I. INTRODUCTION effective field theory (EFT) of continuous media [4,5], which turns to have an ample range of applications. In order Fluid dynamics and thermodynamics are probably the to describe continuous media beyond anisotropic elastic oldest and better known examples of effective descriptions solids, the field content of the pull-back formalism must be of a complicated underlying system in terms of a small extended with a fourth scalar [5].
