The slow rotation of Kerr-NUT spacetime is explored by taking into account the linear form of rotation and NUT parameters in the dynamical Chern-Simon gravity theory, which can be formulated from a scalar field describing the background. We…

We present a highly tractable non-singular modification of the Kerr geometry, dubbed the "eye of the storm" -- a rotating regular black hole with an asymptotically Minkowski core. This is achieved by "exponentially suppressing" the mass…

Analyzing exact solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations in the Kerr-Schild formalism we show that black hole horizon is instable with respect to electromagnetic excitations. Contrary to perturbative smooth harmonic solutions, the exact…

The linearized Kerr metric is considered and put in some Gauss coordinates which are further {\em intrinsic} ones. The linear and angular 4-momenta of this metric are calculated in these coordinates and the resulting value is just zero.…

Newtonian point mass binaries can be brought into arbitrarily close circular orbits. Neutron stars and black holes, however, are extended, relativistic objects. Both finite size and relativistic effects make very close orbits unstable, so…
