Four-dimensional black hole solutions generated by the low energy string effective action are investigated outside and inside the event horizon. A restriction for a minimal black hole size is obtained in the frame of the model discussed. Intersections, turning points and other singular points of the solution are investigated. It is shown that the position and the behavior of these particular points are definded by various kinds of zeros of the main system determinant. Some new aspects of the $r_s$ singularity are discussed.
We present, in an explicit form, the metric for all spherically symmetric Schwarzschild-Bach black holes in Einstein-Weyl theory. In addition to the black hole mass, this complete family of spacetimes involves a parameter that encodes the value of the Bach tensor on the horizon. When this additional non-Schwarzschild parameter is set to zero the Bach tensor vanishes everywhere and the Schwa-Bach solution reduces to the standard Schwarzschild metric of general relativity. Compared with previous studies, which were mainly based on numerical integration of a complicated form of field equations, the new form of the metric enables us to easily investigate geometrical and physical properties of these black holes, such as specific tidal effects on test particles, caused by the presence of the Bach tensor, as well as fundamental thermodynamical quantities.
We investigate FRW cosmological solutions in the theory of modulus field coupled to gravity through a Gauss-Bonnet term. The explicit analytical forms of nonsingular asymptotics are presented for power-law and exponentially steep modulus coupling functions. We study the influence of modulus field potential on these asymptotical regimes and find some forms of the potential which do not destroy the nonsingular behavior. In particular, we obtain that exponentially steep coupling functions arising from the string theory do not allow nonsingular past asymptotic unless modulus field potential tends to zero for modulus field $psi to pm infty$. Finally, the modification of the chaotic dynamics in the closed FRW universe due to presence of the Gauss-Bonnet term is discussed.
In this paper, static electrically charged black hole solutions with cosmological constant are investigated in an Einstein-Hilbert theory of gravity with additional quadratic curvature terms. Beside the analytic Schwarzschild (Anti-) de Sitter solutions, non-Schwarzschild (Anti-) de Sitter solutions are also obtained numerically by employing the shooting method. The results show that there exist two groups of asymptotically (Anti-) de Sitter spacetimes for both charged and uncharged black holes. In particular, it was found that for uncharged black holes the first group can be reduced to the Schwarzschild (Anti-) de Sitter solution, while the second group is intrinsically different from a Schwarzschild (Anti-) de Sitter solution even when the charge and the cosmological constant become zero.
In this paper, we shall consider spherically symmetric spacetime solutions describing the interior of stellar compact objects, in the context of higher-order curvature theory of the f(R) type. We shall derive the non--vacuum field equations of the higher-order curvature theory, without assuming any specific form of the $mathrm{f(R)}$ theory, specifying the analysis for a spherically symmetric spacetime with two unknown functions. We obtain a system of highly non-linear differential equations, which consists of four differential equations with six unknown functions. To solve such a system, we assume a specific form of metric potentials, using the Krori-Barua ansatz. We successfully solve the system of differential equations, and we derive all the components of the energy-momentum tensor. Moreover, we derive the non-trivial general form of $mathrm{f(R)}$ that may generate such solutions and calculate the dynamic Ricci scalar of the anisotropic star. Accordingly, we calculate the asymptotic form of the function $mathrm{f(R)}$, which is a polynomial function. We match the derived interior solution with the exterior one, which was derived in cite{Nashed:2019tuk}, with the latter also resulting in a non-trivial form of the Ricci scalar. Notably but rather expected, the exterior solution differs from the Schwarzschild one in the context of general relativity. The matching procedure will eventually relate two constants with the mass and radius of the compact stellar object. We list the necessary conditions that any compact anisotropic star must satisfy and explain in detail that our model bypasses all of these conditions for a special compact star $textit {Her X--1 }$, which has an estimated mass and radius textit {(mass = 0.85 $pm 0.15M_{circledcirc}$,, and, ,radius $= 8.1 pm 0.41$km)}.
We study the polarizations of gravitational waves (GWs) in two classes of extended gravity theories. First, we formulate the polarizations in linear massive gravity (MG) with generic mass terms of non-Fierz-Pauli type by identifying all the independent variables that obey Klein-Gordon-type equations. The dynamical degrees of freedom (dofs) in the generic MG consist of spin-2 and spin-0 modes, the former breaking down into two tensor (helicity-2), two vector (helicity-1) and one scalar (helicity-0) components, while the latter just corresponding to a scalar. We find convenient ways of decomposing the two scalar modes of each spin into distinct linear combinations of the transverse and longitudinal polarizations with coefficients directly expressed by the mass parameters, thereby serving as a useful tool in measuring the masses of GWs. Then we analyze the linear perturbations of generic higher-curvature gravity (HCG) whose Lagrangian is an arbitrary polynomial of the Riemann tensor. On a flat background, the linear dynamical dofs in this theory are identified as massless spin-2, massive spin-2, and massive spin-0 modes. As its massive part encompasses the identical structure to the generic MG, GWs in the generic HCG provide six massive polarizations on top of the ordinary two massless modes. In parallel to MG, we find convenient representations for the scalar-polarization modes directly connected to the parameters of HCG. In this analysis, we employ two distinct methods; One takes full advantage of the partial equivalence between the generic HCG and MG at the linear level, whereas the other relies upon a gauge-invariant formalism. We confirm that the two results agree. We also discuss methods to determine the theory parameters by GW-polarization measurements. Our method does not require measuring the propagation speeds or the details of the waveforms of the GWs. [Abridged]
