Embedded diagrams are drawn for investigating the black hole of Kerr and non-Kerr metric. Kerr black holes are characterized by masses $M$ and spin parameters $a$. Non-Kerr black holes also are characterized by the deformation parameters…
Black holes described by the Kerr metric can have a theoretical maximum dimensionless spin parameter of $a_\bullet = 1$, but several effects may limit the maximum spin parameter in astrophysical systems. We perform general relativistic…
The specific angular momentum of a Kerr black hole must not be larger than its mass. The observational confirmation of this bound which we call a Kerr bound directly suggests the existence of a black hole. In order to investigate…
