相对论柱对称系统中的新不稳定性

New instability in relativistic cylindrically symmetric system

Ken-ichi Nakao, Daisuke Ida, Yasunari Kurita

摘要:

我们研究了由反向旋转的尘埃颗粒组成的无限薄的圆柱壳。Apostolatos和Thorne在有界区域的C-能量方面研究了这个系统。在本文中,我们重新分析这个系统的C-能量的未来零无穷。我们发现,某些类别的暂时静态和无辐射的初始数据不安定到静态,平衡配置,否则无限的引力辐射发射到未来的零无穷大。我们的结果意味着在这个系统中存在不稳定性。在牛顿引力的框架下,由反向旋转的尘埃颗粒组成的圆柱形壳体可以处于稳定状态,并通过引力吸引和离心排斥进行振荡,因此静态不一定实现为最终状态。相比之下,在广义相对论的框架中,稳定的振荡状态是不可能的,因为引力辐射将把振荡能量带到无穷大。因此,这种不稳定性在牛顿引力中没有对应物。

英文摘要:

We investigate an infinitesimally thin cylindrical shell composed of counter-rotating dust particles. This system was studied by Apostolatos and Thorne in terms of the C-energy for a bounded domain. In this paper, we reanalyze this system by evaluating the C-energy on the future null infinity. We find that some class of momentarily static and radiation-free initial data does not settle down into static, equilibrium configurations, and otherwise infinite amount of the gravitational radiation is emitted to the future null infinity. Our result implies the existence of an instability in this system. In the framework of the Newtonian gravity, a cylindrical shell composed of counter-rotating dust particles can be in a steady state with oscillation by the gravitational attraction and centrifugal repulsion, and hence a static state is not necessarily realized as a final state. By contrast, in the framework of general relativity, the steady oscillating state will be impossible since the gravitational radiation will carry the energy of the oscillation to infinity. Thus, this instability has no counterpart in the Newtonian gravity.
