We consider collisions of electrically neutral particles in the background of axially symmetric rotating space-times. For reactions of the kind 1+2$% \rightarrow $3+4 we give full classification of possible scenarios based on exact…
The possibility that rotating black holes could be natural particle accelerators has been subject of intense debate. While it appears that for extremal Kerr black holes arbitrarily high center of mass energies could be achieved, several…
The Penrose process in the vicinity of an extremal Ban\~ados-Teitelboim-Zanelli(BTZ) black hole is studied. Due to the existence of negative cosmological constant, only massless particles could escape to infinity. Hence we analyse the…
In this work, we investigated the motion of spinning test particles around a rotating wormhole, extending, in this way, the previous work of Benavides-Gallego et al. in [Phys. Rev. D 101, no.12, 124024] to the general case. Using the…
We provide a simple but very useful description of the process of wormhole formation. We place two massive objects in two parallel universes (modeled by two branes). Gravitational attraction between the objects competes with the resistance…
We argue that one can nucleate a traversable wormhole via a nonperturbative process in quantum gravity. To support this, we construct spacetimes in which there are instantons giving a finite probability for a test cosmic string to break and…
Energy extraction from a rotating or charged black hole is one of fascinating issues in general relativity. The collisional Penrose process is one of such extraction mechanisms and has been reconsidered intensively since Banados, Silk and…
We consider Ellis wormholes immersed in rotating matter in the form of an ordinary complex boson field. The resulting wormholes may possess full reflection symmetry with respect to the two asymptotically flat spacetime regions. However,…
Results from general relativistic theoretical Monte Carlo computer simulations of Compton scattering and e-e+ pair production processes in the ergosphere of a supermassive (10^8 solar mass) rotating black hole are presented. Particles from…
We show that kinematics of charged particles allows us to model the growth of particles' energy by consecutive particle-splits, once a spherical mirror as a perfectly reflective boundary is placed outside a charged black hole. We consider a…
It is shown that in a classical spacetime with multiply connected space slices having the topology of a torus, closed timelike curves are also formed. We call these spacetime ringholes. Two regions on the torus surface can be distinguished…
Scattering of particles in the gravitational field of Kerr black holes is considered. It is shown that scattering energy of particles in the centre of mass system can obtain very large values not only for extremal black holes but also for…
We demonstrate that rotating matter sets the throat of an Ellis wormhole into rotation, allowing for wormholes which possess full reflection symmetry with respect to the two asymptotically flat spacetime regions. We analyze the properties…
The Hawking-Penrose singularity theorem states that a singularity forms inside a black hole in general relativity. To remove this singularity one must resort to a more fundamental theory. Using a corrected dynamical equation arising in loop…
In the case involving particles the necessary and sufficient condition for the Penrose process to extract energy from a rotating black hole is absorption of particles with negative energies and angular momenta. No torque at the black-hole…
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…
It was argued in literature that traversable wormholes can exist with arbitrarily small violation of null energy conditions. We show that if the amount of exotic material near the wormhole throat tends to zero, either this leads to a horn…
The motion of spinning test particles around a traversable wormhole is investigated using the Mathisson Papapetrous Dixon equations, which couple the Riemann tensor with the antisymmetric tensor $S^{ab}$, related to the spin of the…
In this paper, I present results from theoretical and numerical (Monte Carlo) N-particle fully relativistic 4-D analysis of Penrose scattering processes (Compton and gamma-gamma-->e-e+) in the ergosphere of a supermassive or stellar mass…
According to the ER = EPR conjecture, entangled particles are connected by quantum wormholes. Under the assumption that some of the electric field surrounding an entangled charged particle leaks into the wormhole, we show that this effect…
