1306.6537 (Gonzalo J. Olmo et al.)

Semiclassical geons at particle accelerators    [PDF]

Gonzalo J. Olmo, D. Rubiera-Garcia
We point out that in certain four-dimensional extensions of general relativity constructed within the Palatini formalism stable self-gravitating objects with a discrete mass and charge spectrum may exist. The incorporation of nonlinearities in the electromagnetic field may effectively reduce their mass spectrum by many orders of magnitude. As a consequence, these objects could be within (or near) the reach of current particle accelerators. We provide an exactly solvable model to support this idea.
