Abstract

We look at the program of modelling a subatomic particle—one having mass, charge, and angular momentum—as an interior solution joined to a classical general-relativistic Kerr-Newman exterior spacetime. We find that the assumption of stationarity upon which the validity of the Kerr-Newman exterior solution depends is in fact violated quantum mechanically for all known subatomic particles. We conclude that the appropriate stationary spacetime matched to any known subatomic particle is flat space.

The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

How the literature uses it

1 arXiv paper cite this in 1 sentence

Each citing sentence is taken from the citing paper's LaTeX source and typed by Pith's classifier. A label appears at probability 0.8 or more (0.95 for support), a contest at 0.7 or more; the quoted words are the citing authors'. How each label was checked · JSON

  • One aspect related to black hole thermodynamics is the definition of the so-called Entropy Function [ref] used widely nowadays to match the `macroscopic' entropy of a class of extremal black holes emerging in the supergravity limit of string theories, to the `microscopic' entropy obtained from counting of string states [ref] .
