We explore the cosmic censorship in the Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory following Wald's thought experiment to destroy a black hole by throwing in a test particle. We discover that at probe limit the extremal charged dilaton black hole could be destroyed by a test particle with specific energy. Nevertheless the censorship is well protected if backreaction or self-force is included. At the end, we discuss an interesting connection between Hoop Conjecture and Weak Gravity Conjecture.

  1. Scalar weak gravity bound from full unitarity

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    For a shift-symmetric scalar EFT with gravity, unitarity and dispersion relations imply Λ/M_P < 2.38 \tilde{g}_2^{1/5} and, in an improved smeared version, Λ^2/M_P^2 < 0.0115 |\tilde{g}_2|.

  2. Phase Transition and Critical Phenomena of Charged Einstein-Maxwell-Scalar Black Holes

    gr-qc 2025-05 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Charged EMs black holes show van der Waals-type phase transitions with mean-field critical exponents, and the phase transition disappears above a threshold scalar charge.
