Abstract
In this work, we consider a two-dimensional (2D) dilaton gravity model where the dilaton kinetic term is modified by an additional derivative coupling term . In the case with a canonical scalar matter field, the field equations of this model have a simple first-order formalism, from which exact static kink solutions can be constructed. The novelty of these solutions is that the corresponding metric can be asymptotically flat rather than asymptotically anti-de Sitter. The linear stability and the localization of scalar matter fields are also studied. It was found that the solutions are stable against small linear perturbations, and the localization of scalar matter fields can be realized by introducing scalar-kink interactions.
期刊介绍:
General physics – physics of elementary particles and fields – nuclear physics – atomic, molecular and optical physics – classical areas of phenomenology – physics of gases, plasmas and electrical discharges – condensed matter – cross-disciplinary physics and related areas of science and technology.
Letters submitted to EPL should contain new results, ideas, concepts, experimental methods, theoretical treatments, including those with application potential and be of broad interest and importance to one or several sections of the physics community. The presentation should satisfy the specialist, yet remain understandable to the researchers in other fields through a suitable, clearly written introduction and conclusion (if appropriate).
EPL also publishes Comments on Letters previously published in the Journal.
