Stability of merons in gravitational models

УстОИЧИВОсть МЕРОНО В В гРАВИтАцИОННых МО ДЕльх

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

The stability properties of merons are investigated in gravitational models by taking the DeAFF model as a theoretical laboratory. We find that in gravitational models containing Yang-Mills fields merons are unstable. Stability might be possible inN = 4 supergravity models withA Μ = 0.
