Black holes of mass M must have a spin angular momentum S below the Kerr limit chi = S/M^2 < 1, but whether astrophysical black holes can attain this limiting spin depends on their accretion history. Gas accretion from a thin disk limits…

We continue our series of studies of high-energy collisions of black holes investigating unequal-mass, boosted head-on collisions in four dimensions. We show that the fraction of the center-of-mass energy radiated as gravitational waves…

Kerr-Newman black holes in a de Sitter (dS) space have the limit of rotating Nariai black holes with the near-horizon geometry of a warped ${\rm dS}_3 \times {\rm S}^1/Z_2$ when the black hole horizon and the cosmological horizon coincide…

We performed a series of 769 full numerical simulations of high energy collision of black holes to search for the maximum gravitational energy emitted $E_{rad}$, during their merger. We consider equal mass binaries with spins pointing along…

In contrast to energy and angular momentum, electric charge is conserved in mergers of charged black holes. This opens up the possibility for the remnant to have Kerr-Newman parameter $\chi^{2} + \lambda^{2}$ greater than 1 (with $\chi$ and…

The process of particle collision in the vicinity of black holes is known to generate unbounded energies in the center-of-mass frame (the Banados-Silk-West (BSW) effect) under specific conditions. We consider this process in the charged…

Quintessential dark energy with pressure $p$ and density $\rho$ is related by equation of state $p=\omega\rho$ with the state parameter $-1<\omega<-1/3$. The cosmological dark energy influence on black hole spacetime are interesting and…

A star orbiting a supermassive black hole can be tidally disrupted if the black hole's gravitational tidal field exceeds the star's self gravity at pericenter. Some of this stellar tidal debris can become gravitationally bound to the black…

In the background of a Kerr-Newman black hole, the motion of a scalar particle is integrable by virtue of an extra conserved charge known as Carter charge. When the particle is endowed with spin, it is known that another conserved charge,…

We study the circular motion of charged particles near a charged black hole. The general form of the Lyapunov exponent of charged particles is obtained by using the Jacobian matrix. The results show that the chaos bound can be saturated by…

The probability of a charged particle production by the electric field of a charged black hole depends essentially on the particle energy. This probability is found in the nonrelativistic and ultrarelativistic limits. The range of values…

The BSW effect implies that the energy $E_{c.m.}$ in the center of mass frame of two particles colliding near a black hole can become unbounded. Usually, it is assumed that particles move along geodesics or electrogeodesics. Instead, we…

We consider a black hole accreting spherically from the surrounding medium. If accretion produces a luminosity close to the Eddington limit the hole acquires a net charge so that electrons and ions can fall with the same velocity. The…

There are different versions of collisions of two particles near black holes with unbound energy $E_{c.m.}$ in the centre of mass frame. The so-called BSW effect arises when a slow fine-tuned "critical" particle hits a rapid "usual" one. We…
