Relativistic black hole collisions are one of the most dramatic astrophysical events that can be imagined. They could provide the ideal condition for searching for possible new physics beyond general relativity. However, such events are…
A Gibbons-Maeda-Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger (GMGHS) black hole with a magnetic charge (or an electric charge) has noteworthy features that its scalar curvature near the event horizon of the black hole with the almost maximal charge can be…
We consider rotating charged black holes with a scalar dilaton field and surrounded by plasma, with the purpose of studying their shadows. The corresponding metric has been previously obtained in the literature from the static solution by…
We construct theoretical investigation of the black hole shadow for rotating charged black hole in an asymptotically flat, axisymmetric, and stationary spacetime with Weyl corrections. This spacetime is characterized by mass ($M$), charge…

We investigate the existence of invariantly defined quasi-local hypersurfaces in the Kastor-Traschen solution containing $N$ charge-equal-to-mass black holes. These hypersurfaces are characterized by the vanishing of particular curvature…
We investigate possible end-points of the superradiant instability for a charged black hole with a reflecting mirror. By considering a fully coupled system of gravity and a charged scalar field, hairy black hole solutions are obtained. The…
We consider the gravitational collapse of a dust cloud in an asymptotically anti de Sitter spacetime in which points connected by a discrete subgroup of an isometry subgroup of anti de Sitter spacetime are identified. We find that black…

Masses of black holes in nearby galactic nuclei can be measured in a variety of ways, using stellar and gaseous kinematics. Reliable black hole masses are known for several dozen objects, so that demographic questions can start to be…
We consider a simple model of a black hole surrounded by a toroidal structure and experiencing deformation due to magnetic field and the tidal force. For this system we construct the shadows of Preston-Poisson black hole, apply it to…
With mass ratio larger than $\sim 5$ (which depends on the black hole spin and the star radius), star disruption is not expected for a black hole merging with a neutron star during the final plunge phase. In the late inspiral stage, the…
Motivated by string theory scenarios, we study the optical aspect of AdS black holes in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory. Concretely, we investigate and examine the shadows and the deflection angle of light rays by such cosmological black…
Two interesting hypotheses about black holes have been proposed. The older one states that microscopic black holes can be accountable for the observed dark matter density. The newer one states that black holes are coupled to the expansion…
When two point particles, coupled to three dimensional gravity with a negative cosmological constant, approach each other with a sufficiently large center of mass energy, then a BTZ black hole is created. An explicit solution to the…
Cosmic strings are topological defects thought to have formed early in the life of the universe. If such objects exist, a study of their interaction with black holes is of interest. The equations of motion of a cosmic string have the form…
We examine the interactions of a black hole with a massless scalar field using a coordinate system which extends ingoing Eddington-Finkelstein coordinates to dynamic spherically symmetric-spacetimes. We avoid problems with the singularity…

In theories with large extra dimensions and TeV-scale gravity, black holes are copiously produced in particle collisions at energies well above the Planck scale. I briefly review some recent work on the phenomenology of this process, with…
