Two particles can collide in the vicinity of a rotating black hole producing the divergent energy in the centre of mass frame (the BSW effect). However, it was shown recently that an observer at infinity can register quite modest energies E…

We study the collision of two particles in the Teo wormhole spacetime, in which the wormhole is stationary and axisymmetric. We show that a non-rotating Teo wormhole cannot be a particle accelerator, while a rotating Teo wormhole can be…

Collisions of particles near a rotating black hole can lead to unbound energies $E_{c.m.}$ in their centre of mass frame. There are indications that the Killing energy of debris at infinity can also be unbound for some scenarios of…

If two particles collide near the rotating extremal black hole and one of them is fine-tuned, the energy in the center of mass frame $E_{c.m.}$ can grow unbounded. This is the so-called Ba\~{n}ados-Silk-West (BSW) effect. Recently, another…
