Causal radial geodesics with a positive interval in the Schwarzschild metric include a subset of trajectories completely confined under a horizon, which compose a thermal statistical ensemble with the Hawking-Gibbons temperature. The…

Schwarzschild black-hole interiors, bounded by event horizons and terminated by spacelike singularities, are regions where all physical observers are inevitably destroyed. In the geometric optics approximation, waves follow null geodesics…

Rapidly rotating bodies moving in curved space-time experience the so-called spin-curvature force, which becomes important for the motion of compact objects in gravitational-wave inspirals. As a first approximation, this effect is captured…
Through two exact solution families to the Einstein equation and the one-to-one correspondence between their free parameters, we show that the ensemble of collapsars with only close-to-implementing horizon in the Schwarzschild time…
Circumambient and galactic-scale environments are intermittently present around black holes that reside in active galactic nuclei. As supermassive black holes impart energy on their host galaxy, so the galactic environment affects the…
This study is purposed to derive the equation of motion for geodesics in vicinity of spacetime of a (2 + 1)-dimensional charged BTZ black hole. In this paper, we solve geodesics for both massive and massless particles in terms of…
