In this paper we have investigated the gravitational lensing phenomenon in the strong field regime for a regular, charged, static, non-linear black hole having a electrodynamics source. We have obtained the angle of deflection and compared…

We study the self force acting on a particle endowed with scalar charge, which is held static (with respect to an undragged, static observer at infinity) outside a stationary, axially-symmetric black hole. We find that the acceleration due…

We investigate the possibility of obtaining non-singular black-hole solutions in the brane world model by solving the effective field equations for the induced metric on the brane. The Reissner-Nordstrom solution on the brane was obtained…

We study the geodesics of $5d$ Reissner-Nordstrom and nonsingular black strings, and establish a rational bound orbit taxonomy for both massive as well as null test particles. For the timelike case, test particles with high energy (that…

We treat the problem of N interacting, axisymmetric black holes and obtain two relations among physical parameters of the system including the force between the black holes. The first relation involves the total mass, the angular momenta,…

Recently, it was shown in [1] that black holes are the source of dark energy. In [2-5], the truth or falsity of this concept has been discussed. We briefly state the arguments raised in each of these papers, but our main goal is not to…

For gauged scalar fields minimally coupled to Einstein-Maxwell theory, the Mayo-Bekenstein no-hair theorem can be circumvented when including appropriate scalar self-interactions, allowing static, electrically charged black holes to be…

There exist two branches of static and spherically symmetric black hole solutions in Einstein-Weyl theory: one is the Schwarzschild black hole, and the other is a numerically constructed black hole that bifurcates from the Schwarzschild…

We consider D-dimensional Einstein gravity coupled to (n-1) U(1) vector fields and (n-2) dilatonic scalars. We find that for some appropriate exponential dilaton couplings of the field strengths, the equations of motion for the static…

This is the second in a series of two papers to establish the conjectured mass-angular momentum inequality for multiple black holes, modulo the extreme black hole 'no hair theorem'. More precisely it is shown that either there is a…

We study a multiply warped products manifold associated with the Reissner-Nordstrom metric to investigate the physical properties inside the black hole event horizons. It is shown that, different from the uncharged Schwarzschild metric, the…

It has recently been shown that black holes can act as particle accelerators and two particles can collide with arbitrarily high center-of-mass (CM) energy under certain critical conditions. In this paper, we investigate particle collisions…

We consider two types of Born-Infeld like nonlinear electromagnetic fields and obtain their interesting black hole solutions. The asymptotic behavior of these solutions is the same as that of Reissner-Nordstrom black hole. We investigate…

We consider theories with gravity, gauge fields and scalars in four-dimensional asymptotically flat space-time. By studying the equations of motion directly we show that the attractor mechanism can work for non-supersymmetric extremal black…

We prove a uniqueness theorem for the charged Nariai black holes and ultracold black holes in four dimensions. In particular, we show that an analytic solution to four-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory with a positive cosmological…

We obtain charged spherically symmetric black holes in the two-component scalar Einstein-Maxwell-Friedberg-Lee-Sirlin model with a symmetry breaking potential. These asymptotically flat black holes carry resonant scalar Q-hair. As expected,…

Several different but equivalent forms of the spherical black hole (Schwarzschild) are known, as well as several derivations. Here a novel form is derived through the power of the action formalism. The method generalizes to any spherical…
