Charged Taub-NUT-de Sitter spacetime in DGP braneworld and its thermodynamics*

Abstract

Abstract We study a charged Taub-NUT spacetime solution in the Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati (DGP) brane. We show that the Reissner-Nordstrom-Taub-NUT-de Sitter solution of Einstein-Maxwell gravity solves the corresponding equations of motion, where the cosmological constant is related to the cross-over scale in the DGP model. Following the approach by Teitelboim in discussing the thermodynamics of de Sitter spacetime and the proposal by Wu et al. for a conserved charge associated with the NUT parameter, we obtain the generalized Smarr mass formula and the first law of thermodynamics of the spacetime.
