abstract

This chapter provides a brief introduction to the Kerr spacetime and rotating black holes, touching on the most common coordinate representations of the spacetime metric and the key features of the geometry -- the presence of horizons and ergospheres. The coverage is by no means complete, and serves chiefly to orient oneself when reading subsequent chapters.

Charging up regular black holes

gr-qc · 2026-07-08 · accept · novelty 6.0

Charged Bardeen and Hayward metrics become singular under deformed Einstein–Maxwell equations; more stringent regularity conditions are derived and improved regular charged metrics are constructed.

Remarks on electrical Penrose process for magnetized Reissner-Nordstr\"om black hole

gr-qc · 2026-05-19 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

An external magnetic field induces an ergosphere in the magnetized Reissner-Nordström spacetime, enabling the electric Penrose process with efficiency set by metric coefficients, electromagnetic potential, and critical magnetic field values that mark onset and suppression of extraction.
