Charged Letelier--Alencar Black Strings with a Quintessence and the Cosmolgical Constant

Abstract

This study derives charged black string solutions in the presence of a Letelier--Alencar cloud of strings and quintessence within Einstein--Maxwell--$Λ$ theory. We study the curvature scalars in order to investigate the asymptotical behavior of these solutions. We calculate the relevant conserved and thermodynamic quantities, confirming their compliance with the first law of thermodynamics. System stability is rigorously analyzed through heat capacity and Gibbs free energy, identifying regimes of local and global equilibrium. Additionally, by interpreting the cosmological constant as thermodynamic pressure within an extended phase space, we establish the validity of the extended first law and derive the corresponding Smarr relation for these solutions. We also investigate the null geodesic structure, deriving the equation for the photon cylinder radius, which generalizes the known result for charged black strings by incorporating the effects of the Letelier--Alencar cloud of strings and quintessence. The numerical analysis of this equation determines the existence and location of photon cylinders as functions of the model parameters.

The Depletion of Collisionless Dark Matter Spikes

Dense concentrations of dark matter surrounding black holes provide a compelling opportunity to probe the nature of dark matter. In the classic Gondolo--Silk model, the adiabatic growth of a massive black hole in a dark matter cusp produces a steep density spike ($ρ\propto r^{-7/3}$), potentially inducing measurable gravitational-wave dephasings in intermediate and extreme mass-ratio inspirals (IMRIs/EMRIs). We challenge this paradigm by considering a collisionless dark matter spike embedded in a realistic nuclear star cluster. Using Fokker--Planck models of isotropic nuclear clusters, we show that mass segregation in a multi-mass stellar cusp accelerates relaxation relative to single-mass models, thereby driving the dark matter to the lower density $r^{-3/2}$ Bahcall--Wolf profile within 1 Gyr. In the inner regions, where the Fokker--Planck description breaks down, we model strong triple interactions between dark matter particles and EMRIs using post-Newtonian 3-body simulations. We show that EMRIs eject dark matter particles via gravitational slingshots, depleting the inner spike over a few Gyr. Because EMRI number densities are too low to drive two-body relaxation, and replenishment by DM self-relaxation is negligible, this depletion is irreversible. While the extent of EMRI-induced DM depletion depends on the EMRI rate and mass, we find reductions in densities by several orders of magnitude. As a result, the dark-matter-induced dephasings for EMRIs may fall below the LISA detectability threshold for massive black holes at $z = 3$ (2.14 Gyr) with masses $\lesssim 10^{5}\,M_\odot$ (for a low $\mathcal{O}(10) \, \mathrm{Gyr}^{-1}$ EMRI rate), extending to $\lesssim 10^6\,M_\odot$ for more realistic rates of $\mathcal{O}(100 - 300)\,$Gyr$^{-1}$. Our findings substantially reduce the parameter space over which massive black holes can host detectable collisionless dark matter spikes.

Unruh-DeWitt Detector Response in Toroidal Spacetime

The global topology of spacetime, though invisible to local curvature measurements, leaves signatures on the correlation functions of quantum fields. We study these signatures using an Unruh-DeWitt particle detector operating in four-dimensional Minkowski spacetime with two spatial directions periodically identified, yielding a spatial topology $\mathbb{R}\times T^2$. We compute detector transition rates for three trajectories: uniform inertial motion, uniform proper acceleration directed along one of the compact axes, and uniform proper acceleration along the non-compact axis. Our results show how a local quantum measurement can reveal features of the large-scale spatial topology.

Holographic Dark Energy with Hubble Radius as an Infrared Cutoff in Einstein-Cartan Gravity

In this work, we investigate non-interacting holographic dark energy (HDE) with the Hubble radius as the infrared cutoff in Einstein-Cartan gravity. We derive the Einstein-Cartan equations from the action principle and obtain Friedmann-like equations by introducing a torsion scalar. Considering a Weyssenhoff spin fluid, we determine the scaling behavior of the torsion scalar as $Φ\sim a^{-3}$ without introducing an ad hoc ansatz, resolving the ansatz problem of previous torsion scalar scenarios. In the absence of interactions between dark matter and dark energy, the torsion scalar shifts the equation of state for holographic dark energy toward negative values from the dust-like value obtained in HDE without torsion, making cosmic acceleration possible. In particular, the resulting equation of state can approach $ω_X \simeq -1$ and cross the phantom divide within the weak torsion regime $|Φ/H| < 1$. The model predicts a dynamical equation of state in which cosmic acceleration gradually weakens, potentially consistent with recent DESI observations. In spacetimes with torsion, the cosmic distance duality relation between the luminosity distance $d_L$ and the angular diameter distance $d_A$ is modified as $d_L = d_A (1+z)^2 (1+η)$. In the presence of the torsion scalar, we show that the standard relation between redshift and the scale factor is preserved, while the deviation parameter arising from torsion effects is determined as $η\sim \int_{t_S}^{t_O} dt a^{-3}$, where $t_S$ and $t_O$ denote the emission time at the source and the observation time at the observer, respectively. Overall, our results support the feasibility of the model and provide a theoretical framework for preparing likelihood analyses.
