Generating elastic solutions of the Einstein field equations from the Schwarzschild vacuum solution

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The problem of generating solutions of the Einstein field equations with an elastic energy-momentum tensor from the Schwarzschild vacuum solution by means of conformal transformations is analyzed. Applying the formulation of relativistic elasticity, suitable conformal factors are obtained for static and non-static elastic spacetime configurations and particular solutions are presented. This work shows that the technique used here permits generating new elastic matter solutions from a vacuum spacetime.
