We consider the steady-state density and velocity dispersion profiles of collisionless matter around a Schwarzschild black hole (BH) and its associated rate of accretion onto the BH. We treat matter, which could be stars or dark matter…

We consider stationary axially symmetric black holes with the background scalar field and test particles that can interact with this field directly. Then, particle collision near a black hole can lead to the unbounded energy $% E_{c.m.}$ in…

If two ultrarelativistic nonrotating black holes of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ approach each other with fixed center-of-momentum (COM) total energy $E = \sqrt{s} \gg (m_1+m_2)c^2$ that has a corresponding Schwarzschild radius $R = 2GE/c^4$ much…
