Phys. Rev. D 75, 044007 (2007) [13 pages]Matter without matter: Kaluza-Klein spacetime in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravityReceived 17 November 2006; published 6 February 2007 We consider Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity in n(≥6)-dimensional Kaluza-Klein spacetime M4×Kn-4, where Kn-4 is the Einstein space with negative curvature. In the case where Kn-4 is the space of negative constant curvature, we have recently obtained a new static black-hole solution [ Phys. Rev. D 74 021501(R) (2006)] which is a pure gravitational creation including Maxwell field in four-dimensional vacuum spacetime. The solution has been generalized to make it radially radiate null radiation representing gravitational creation of charged null dust. The same class of solutions though exists in spacetime Md×Kn-d for d=3,4, however the gravitational creation of the Maxwell field is achieved only for d=4. Also, the Gauss-Bonnet effect could be brought down to Md only for d=4. Further some new exact solutions are obtained including its analogue in Taub-NUT spacetime on M4 for d=4. © 2007 The American Physical Society URL:
