Thermodynamics and the naked singularity in the Gamma-metric

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2010-09-24 v1

Abstract

We investigate a possible way of establishing a parallel between the third law of black hole mechanics, and the strong version of the third law of thermodynamics. We calculate the surface gravity and area for a naked singular null surface in the Gamma-metric and explain in what sense this behaviour violates thermodynamics.
