Static plane-symmetric nonlinear spinor and scalar fields in GR (Q2506021): Difference between revisions

The authors study a system of a minimally coupled system composed of a spinor field, a scalar field and a gravitational field represented by a Lorentzian manifold admitting a plane-symmetric metric. The spinor field equations of motion are derived from a Lagrangian containing a nonlinear autointeracting term which is an arbitrary (power law) function of the square of two bilinear invariants. The Lagrangian of the scalar field is chosen to be an arbitrary function of double the kinetic energy term (Born-Infeld type). The gravitational Lagrangian is the Einstein-Hilbert one. The main result obtained after a series of nontrivial calculations is that there exists a configuration with finite energy density and limited total ``energy''. However, keep in mind that the ``energy'' defined by authors has been obtained through the integral of the (00) covariant and contravariant component of the total energy-momentum tensor, which as well known does not define in general a genuine conserved quantity.
