On particle collisions near Kerr's black holes

Scattering of particles in the gravitational field of rotating black holes is considered. Expressions for scattering energy of particles in the centre of mass system are obtained. It is shown that scattering energy of particles in the centre of mass system can obtain very large values not only for extremal black holes but also for nonextremal ones. It is shown that for realizing of the collisions with infinite energy one needs the infinite interval not only of the coordinate time but also the infinite interval of the proper time of the free falling particle.

On Particles Creation and Renormalization in a Cosmological Model with a Big Rip

An exact solution is obtained for a massive scalar field conformally coupled with the curvature in a cosmological model with the scale factor $a(t) = a_0 / |t|$, corresponding to background matter with the equation of state $ p = - 5 \varepsilon /3 $. An expression for the number density of created particles is obtained, and its behavior is studies as the model approached the instant of a Big Rip. Renormalization of the energy-momentum tensor is considered, and it is shown that back reaction of the quantum effects of a conformally coupled scalar field on the space-time metric can be neglected if the field mass is much smaller than the Planck mass and if the time left to the Big Rip is greater than the Planck time.

Active Galactic Nuclei and Transformation of Dark Matter into Visible Matter

The hypothesis that dark matter is converted into visible particles in active galactic nuclei is investigated. If dark matter consists of stable superheavy neutral particles and active galactic nuclei are rotating black holes, then, due to the Penrose process, superheavy particles can decay into unstable particles with larger mass, whose decay into quarks and leptons leads to events in cosmic rays observed by the Auger group. Similar processes of decay of superheavy particles of dark matter into visible matter occurred in the early Universe. Numerical estimates of the processes in active galactic nuclei and in the early Universe are given.

Space-Time Description of Scalar Particle Creation by a Homogeneous Isotropic Gravitational Field

We give the generalization of the method of the space-time description of particle creation by a gravitational field for a scalar field with nonconformal coupling to the curvature. The space-time correlation function is obtained for a created pair of the quasi-particles, corresponding to a diagonal form of the instantaneous Hamiltonian. The case of an adiabatic change of the metric of homogeneous isotropic space is analyzed. We show that the created pairs of quasi-particles in de Sitter space should be interpreted as pairs of virtual particles.

Do active galactic nuclei convert dark matter into visible particles?

The hypothesis that dark matter consists of superheavy particles with the mass close to the Grand Unification scale is investigated. These particles were created from vacuum by the gravitation of the expanding Universe and their decay led to the observable baryon charge. Some part of these particles with the lifetime larger than the time of breaking of the Grand Unification symmetry became metastable and survived up to the modern time as dark matter. However in active galactic nuclei due to large energies of dark matter particles swallowed by the black hole the opposite process can occur. Dark matter particles become interacting. Their decay on visible particles at the Grand Unification energies leads to the flow of ultra high energy cosmic rays observed by the Auger group. Numerical estimates of the effect leading to the observable numbers are given.

Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau equation with nonminimal coupling to curvature

The generalized Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau equation in curved space-time is proposed for non-minimal coupling to the curvature and external fields. The corresponding scalar and vector fields equation are found. Equations are presented, which are equivalent to those of a scalar field with conformal coupling and electromagnetic field with non-minimal coupling to the curvature. The gauge-invariant Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau equation with non-minimal coupling is given.

Some effects of the quantum field theory in the early Universe

Effects of the vacuum polarization leading to change of the effective gravitational constant and particle creation in the early Universe are discussed. Gauss-Bonnet type coupling to the curvature is considered. Renormalization methods are generalized for such coupling and the N-dimensional space-time. Calculations of creation of entropy and visible matter of the Universe by the gravity of dark matter are made.

Renormalization and dimensional regularization for a scalar field with Gauss-Bonnet-type coupling to curvature

We consider a scalar field with a Gauss-Bonnet-type coupling to the curvature in a curved space-time. For such a quadratic coupling to the curvature, the metric energy-momentum tensor does not contain derivatives of the metric of orders greater than two. We obtain the metric energy-momentum tensor and find the geometric structure of the first three counterterms to the vacuum averages of the energy-momentum tensor for an arbitrary background metric of an N-dimensional space-time. In a homogeneous isotropic space, we obtain the first three counterterms of the n-wave procedure, which allow calculating the renormalized values of the vacuum averages of the energy-momentum tensors in the dimensions N=4,5. Using dimensional regularization, we establish that the geometric structures of the counterterms in the $n$-wave procedure coincide with those in the effective action method.

The n-wave procedure and dimensional regularization for the scalar field in a homogeneous isotropic space

We obtain expressions for the vacuum expectations of the energy-momentum tensor of the scalar field with an arbitrary coupling to the curvature in an N-dimensional homogeneous isotropic space for the vacuum determined by diagonalization of the Hamiltonian. We generalize the n-wave procedure to N-dimensional homogeneous isotropic space-time. Using the dimensional regularization, we investigate the geometric structure of the terms subtracted from the vacuum energy-momentum tensor in accordance with the n-wave procedure. We show that the geometric structures of the first three subtractions in the n-wave procedure and in the effective action method coincide. We show that all the subtractions in the n-wave procedure in a four- and five-dimensional homogeneous isotropic spaces correspond to a renormalization of the coupling constants of the bare gravitational Lagrangian.

The Hamilton Operator and Quantum Vacuum for Nonconformal Scalar Fields in the Homogeneous and Isotropic Space

The diagonalization of the metrical and canonical Hamilton operators of a scalar field with an arbitrary coupling, with a curvature in N-dimensional homogeneous isotropic space is considered in this paper. The energy spectrum of the corresponding quasiparticles is obtained and then the modified energy-momentum tensor is constructed; the latter coincides with the metrical energy-momentum tensor for conformal scalar field. Under the diagonalization of corresponding Hamilton operator the energies of relevant particles of a nonconformal field are equal to the oscillator frequencies, and the density of such particles created in a nonstationary metric is finite. It is shown that the modified Hamilton operator can be constructed as a canonical Hamilton operator under the special choice of variables.

Nonconformal Scalar Field in a Homogeneous Isotropic Space and the Method of Hamiltonian Diagonalization

The diagonalization of the metrical Hamiltonian of a scalar field with an arbitrary coupling with a curvature in N-dimensional homogeneous isotropic space is performed. The energy spectrum of the corresponding quasiparticles is obtained. The energies of the quasiparticles corresponding to the diagonal form of the canonical Hamiltonian are calculated. The modified energy-momentum tensor with the following properties is constructed. It coincides with the metrical energy-momentum tensor for conformal scalar field. Under its diagonalization the energies of relevant particles of a nonconformal field coincide to the oscillator frequencies and the density of such particles created in a nonstationary metric is finite. It is shown that the Hamiltonian calculated with the modified energy-momentum tensor can be constructed as a canonical Hamiltonian under the special choice of variables.
