We derive a new set of field equations within the framework of the Palatini formalism. These equations are a natural generalization of the Einstein–Maxwell equations which arise by adding a function [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text] to the Palatini Lagrangian f(R, Q). The result we obtain can be viewed as the coupling of gravity with a nonlinear extension of the electromagnetic field. In addition, a new method is introduced to solve the algebraic equation associated to the Ricci tensor.

AbstractNumerical methods are developed to simulate the wave propagation in heterogeneous 2D fluid/poroelastic media. Wave propagation is described by the usual acoustics equations (in the fluid medium) and by the low-frequency Biot’s equations (in the porous medium). Interface conditions are introduced to model various hydraulic contacts between the two media: open pores, sealed pores, and imperfect pores. Well-posedness of the initial-boundary value problem is proven. Cartesian grid numerical methods previously developed in porous heterogeneous media are adapted to the present context: a fourth-order ADER scheme with Strang splitting for time- marching; a space-time mesh-refinement to capture the slow compressional wave predicted by Biot’s theory; and an immersed interface method to discretize the interface conditions and to introduce a subcell resolution. Numerical experiments and comparisons with exact solutions are proposed for the three types of interface conditions, demonstrating the accuracy of the approach.

Here, we have investigated the interaction of Bianchi type-I anisotropic cloud string cosmological model universe with electromagnetic field in the context of general relativity. In this paper, the energy-momentum tensor is assumed to be the sum of the rest energy density and string tension density with an electromagnetic field. To obtain exact solution of Einstein’s field equations, we take the average scale factor as an integrating function of time. Also, the dynamics and significance of various physical parameters of model are discussed.

In this paper we derive the Lorentz-Dirac equation of motion for a charged particle moving in an external electromagnetic field. We use Maxwell's electromagnetic field equations together with the assumptions (1) that all fields are retarded and (2) that the 4-force acting on the charged particle is a Lorentz 4-force. To define the self-field on the world-line of the charge we utilize a contour integral representation for the field due to A. W. Conway. This by-passes the need to define an ‘average field’. In an appendix the case of a scalar field is briefly discussed.

In this paper, we investigate exact solutions of the field equations for charged, anisotropic, static, cylindrically symmetric space–time. We use a barotropic equation of state linearly relating the radial pressure and energy density. The analysis of the matter variables indicates a physically reasonable matter distribution. In the most general case, the central densities correspond to realistic stellar objects in the presence of anisotropy and charge. Finally, we conclude that matter sources are less affected by the electromagnetic field.
