We explicitly determine the expression of the electrostatic potential generated by a point charge at rest in the Schwarzschild black hole pierced by a cosmic string. We can then calculate the electrostatic self-energy. From this, we find again the upper entropy bound for a charged object by employing thermodynamics of the black hole.

  1. Self-Forces as Nonlocal Probes of Gravastar Interiors

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0

    For charges held near a gravastar, the self-force carries information about the interior, giving explicitly computable differences from the black-hole case.

  2. Self-Forces as Nonlocal Probes of Gravastar Interiors

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    Static scalar and electric charges near a thin-shell gravastar experience self-forces different from those near a black hole, with analytic leading-order formulas.
