It is demonstrated that the Melvin universe representing the spacetime with a strong 'homogeneous' electric field can by obtained from the spacetime of two accelerated charged black holes by a suitable limiting procedure. The behavior of various invariantly defined geometrical quantities in this limit is also studied.

    A Harrison-type map plus fluid rescaling produces spherical Melvin analogues of dS and AdS that reduce to ordinary (A)dS when the magnetic field vanishes.

    The paper works out the geometry, flux, and geodesics of the Melvin magnetic universe with a positive cosmological constant, showing its two-sphere section is compact and carries a conical singularity, with a Freund-R...
