Gravitational phase transition mediated by thermalon in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet-Maxwell-Kalb-Ramond gravity
Abstract
In this work, we study the possible existence of gravitational phase transition from AdS to dS asymptotic geometries in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity by adding the Maxwell one-form field (A<inf>μ</inf>) and the Kalb-Ramond two-form field (B<inf>μν</inf>) as impurity substitutions. The phase transitions proceed via the bubble nucleation of spherical thin-shells described by different branches of the solutions which host a dS black hole in the interior and asymptotic thermal AdS state in the exterior. We analyze the phase diagrams of the free energy and temperature to demonstrate the existence of the phase transitions in the grand canonical ensemble (fixed electrical potential). The phase transitions of having the one-form and two-form charges are possible in which the critical temperature is lower than that of the neutral case. Comparing results with existing literature, more importantly, our analyses show that the critical temperature and the Gauss-Bonnet coupling λ of the phase transitions get decreased by adding more types of the charges.
