A Mass Formula for EYM Solitons

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2009-11-07 v2 High Energy Physics - Theory

Abstract

The Isolated Horizon formalism, together with a simple phenomenological model for colored black holes was recently used to predict a formula for the ADM mass of the solitons of the EYM system in terms of horizon properties of black holes {\it for all} values of the horizon area. In this note, this formula is tested numerically --up to a large value of the area-- for spherically symmetric solutions and shown to yield the known masses of the solitons
