Black plane solutions in four-dimensional spacetimes
Black plane solutions in four-dimensional spacetimes
The static, plane symmetric solutions and cylindrically symmetric solutions of Einstein-Maxwell equations with a negative cosmological constant are investigated. These black configurations are asymptotically anti-de Sitter-type not only in the transverse directions, but also in the membrane or string directions. Their causal structure is similar to that of Reissner-Nordstr\"om black …
