Title: The charged black hole in a cosmological context

Miscellaneous ·
OSTI ID:5184070

The structure of the space time obtained from the embedding of the region between the event horizon and the Cauchy horizon of the Reissner-Nordstrom solution in a closed cosmology is investigated. It is shown that this model incorporates the spherically symmetric solution of the coupled Einstein and Maxwell's equations in a cosmological model in the same way a similar construction by Qadir and Wheeler incorporates the Schwarzschild solution in a cosmological model with S{sup 3} topology. The fate of the suture universe obtained is discussed.
