We investigate the power of a collisional Penrose process with an unbound energy extraction from an extreme Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m black hole. This process takes infinite time in a time coordinate at a constant radial coordinate outside of…

High-energy collisions can occur for radially moving charged test particles in the extremal Reissner-Nordstr\"om spacetime if one of the particles is fine-tuned and the collision point is taken close to the horizon. This is an analogy of…
Recently, Banados, Silk and West analyzed a collision of two particles near the horizon of the extremal Kerr black hole and demonstrated that the energy in the center-of-mass frame can be arbitrarily large provided the angular momentum of…
It is known that the center-of-mass energy of the collision of two massive particles following geodesics around a black hole presents a maximum. The maximum energy increases when the black hole is endowed with spin, and for a maximally…

Rapidly rotating Kerr black holes can accelerate particles to arbitrarily high energy if the angular momentum of the particle is fine-tuned to some critical value. This phenomenon is robust as it is founded on the basic properties of…
