The Critical Phenomena and Thermodynamics of the Reissner-Nordstrom-de Sitter Black Hole

Abstract EN

It is wellknown that there are two horizons for the Reissner-Nordstrom-de Sitter spacetime, namely, the black hole horizon and the cosmological one.

Both horizons can usually seem to be two independent thermodynamic systems; however, the thermodynamic quantities on both horizons satisfy the laws of black hole thermodynamics and are not independent.

In this paper by considering the relations between the two horizons we give the effective thermodynamic quantities in Reissner-Nordstrom-de Sitter spacetime.

The thermodynamic properties of these effective quantities are analyzed; moreover, the critical temperature, critical pressure, and critical volume are obtained.

We also discussed the thermodynamic stability of Reissner-Nordstrom-de Sitter spacetime.
