We study the behavior of phase transitions for the four-dimensional charged Taub-NUT-AdS spacetime with the Newman-Unti-Tamburino (NUT) parameter interpreted as the thermodynamic multihair in the extended thermodynamic phase space, and mainly focus on the effects of the NUT parameter on the phase transitions. We find that there is an upper bound on the value of the NUT parameter beyond which the corresponding physical inflection point or critical point will not exist, and the thermodynamic trihair interpretation of the NUT parameter would admit a little larger upper bound than the thermodynamic bihair interpretation. Moreover, as long as the NUT parameter is vanishingly small, the analogy to the van der Waals liquid/gas phase transition is valid irrespective of the multihair characteristics of the NUT parameter. However, as the NUT parameter increases to be comparable to the electric charge, such analogy to the van der Waals system will be broken, and the corresponding inflection point is not a thermodynamic critical point any more. For a large NUT parameter, there are frequent occurrences of the zeroth order phase transition in the case of the thermodynamic bihair interpretation, while only the first order phase transition happens in the case of the thermodynamic trihair interpretation.
We present a menagerie of solutions to the vacuum Einstein equations in six, eight and ten dimensions. These solutions describe spacetimes which are either locally asymptotically adS or locally asymptotically flat, and which have non-trivial topology
The interpretation of a family of electrovacuum stationary Taub-NUT-type fields in terms of finite charged perfect fluid disks is presented. The interpretation is mades by means of an inverse problem approach used to obtain disk sources of known solu
A family of models of counterrotating and rotating relativistic thin discs of infinite extension based on a charged and magnetized Kerr-NUT metric are constructed using the well-known displace, cut and reflect method extended to solutions of vacuum E
We construct new solutions of the vacuum Einstein field equations in four dimensions via a solution generating method utilizing the SL(2,R) symmetry of the reduced Lagrangian. We apply the method to an accelerating version of the Zipoy-Voorhees solut
In a recent paper (Beyer and Hennig, 2012 [9]), we have introduced a class of inhomogeneous cosmological models: the smooth Gowdy-symmetric generalized Taub-NUT solutions. Here we derive a three-parametric family of exact solutions within this class,
