Abstract
Einstein-Maxwell theory has powerful solution generating techniques which include Harrison transformations in the Ernst formalism. We construct generalised Harrison transformations that preserve the purely magnetic or purely electric sector in Einstein-ModMax (EMM) theory. Thus, they serve as solution generating techniques within these sectors for this model of non-linear electrodynamics minimally coupled to gravity. As an application we rederive several known exact solutions of EMM and a new solution, black diholes, describing two extremal BHs in equilibrium, with opposite magnetic charges, whose attraction is balanced by their embedding in the Melvin magnetic universe of this model. As a further generalisation, we consider Einstein-dilaton-ModMax theory, and provide the extremal charged BHs and black diholes also in this model.
期刊介绍:
The aim of the Journal of High Energy Physics (JHEP) is to ensure fast and efficient online publication tools to the scientific community, while keeping that community in charge of every aspect of the peer-review and publication process in order to ensure the highest quality standards in the journal.
Consequently, the Advisory and Editorial Boards, composed of distinguished, active scientists in the field, jointly establish with the Scientific Director the journal''s scientific policy and ensure the scientific quality of accepted articles.
JHEP presently encompasses the following areas of theoretical and experimental physics:
Collider Physics
Underground and Large Array Physics
Quantum Field Theory
Gauge Field Theories
Symmetries
String and Brane Theory
General Relativity and Gravitation
Supersymmetry
Mathematical Methods of Physics
Mostly Solvable Models
Astroparticles
Statistical Field Theories
