Rich physics can be divined from charged black holes subjected to extremal conditions. When applied in conjunction with principles like Weak Cosmic Censorship, this naturally leads to constraints on the mass and charge of the black hole.…

The semi-classical Hawking evaporation process of Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes is analyzed. It is shown that this quantum mechanism may turn a near-extremal black-hole spacetime with $T_{\text{BH}}\lesssim \hbar^2/G^2M^3$ into an…

Einstein's Field Equations have proven applicable across many scales, from black holes to cosmology. Even the mysterious Cosmological Constant found a physical interpretation in the so-called ``dark energy'' causing the accelerated cosmic…

We investigate the weak cosmic censorship conjecture by analyzing the dynamics of spinning timelike particles dropped along the rotational axis of an extremal Kerr (anti)de Sitter black hole. This idea was first considered in a seminal…

Recently, it was shown in [1] that black holes are the source of dark energy. In [2-5], the truth or falsity of this concept has been discussed. We briefly state the arguments raised in each of these papers, but our main goal is not to…

We calculate the self-force acting on a charged particle on a circular geodesic orbit in the equatorial plane of a rotating black hole. We show by direct calculation that the dissipative self-force balances with the sum of the flux radiated…

The dynamics of a (super)particle near the horizon of an extreme Reissner-Nordstrom black hole is shown to be governed by an action that reduces to a (super)conformal mechanics model in the limit of large black hole mass.
