Chaos and Rotating Black Holes with Halos

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2014-11-17 v1

Abstract

The occurrence of chaos for test particles moving around a slowly rotating black hole with a dipolar halo is studied using Poincar\'e sections. We find a novel effect, particles with angular momentum opposite to the black hole rotation have larger chaotic regions in phase space than particles initially moving in the same direction.
