Higher Dimensional Charged Rotating Solutions in (A)dS Space-times

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-11-07 v3

Abstract

We present a class of solutions to the Einstein-Maxwell equations in d-dimensions, all of which are asymptotically (anti)-de Sitter space-times. They describe electrically charged rotating solutions, which are generalizations of those found by Lemos (gr-qc/9404041). These solutions have toroidal, planar or cylindrical horizons and can be interpreted as black holes, or black strings/branes. We calculate the inverse temperature and entropy, and then we use the Brown-York stress-tensor to calculate mass and angular momenta of these solutions.
