Our knowledge of dynamical black holes suffers from a lack of observational insight. In an analogue model of gravity, we can design a longitudinally symmetric dynamical acoustic black hole with a moving horizon. In this symmetric spacetime,…
We investigate the quantum dynamics of a charged scalar field in the near-horizon region of a near-extremal charged BTZ black hole. A controlled expansion of the Einstein-Maxwell equations reveals an emergent warped AdS$_2 \times S^1$…
The gravitational force harbours a fundamental instability against collapse. In standard General Relativity without Quantum Mechanics, this implies the existence of black holes as natural, stable solutions of Einstein's equations. If one…
We consider dynamics of a quantum scalar field, minimally coupled to classical gravity, in the near-horizon region of a Schwarzschild black-hole. It is described by a static Klein-Gordon operator which in the near-horizon region reduces to…
For Rindler observers accelerating close to the horizon in local patches around a spacetime point, the matter-energy passing through the horizon increases the entropy and heat energy. Jacobson has showed that the Einstein equation can be…
Hawking radiation originates from a "quantum atmosphere" around black holes, not necessarily from the vicinity of the horizon. We examine and discuss the properties of quantum atmospheres of asymptotically flat Reissner-Nordstr\"om black…
Quantum gravity theories predict deformations of black hole solutions relative to their classical counterparts. A model-independent approach was advocated in \cite{Binetti:2022xdi} that uses metric deformations parametrised in terms of…
We consider dynamical black hole formation from a collapsing fluid described by a symmetric and flat FRW metric. Using the Hamilton-Jacobi method the local Hawking temperature for the formed trapping/apparent horizon is calculated. The…
It is shown that in the extreme limit with a zero surface gravity but nonzero local temperature the limiting metric of a generic static black hole is determined by a metric induced on a horizon and one function of two coordinates,…
We analyze Hawking radiation as perceived by a freely-falling observer and try to draw an inference about the region of origin of the Hawking quanta. To do so, first we calculate the energy density from the stress energy tensor, as…
The thermodynamics of ``horizon brightened acceleration radiation'' (HBAR), due to a random atomic cloud freely falling into a black hole in a Boulware-like vacuum, is shown to mimic the thermodynamics of the black hole itself. The…
Treating macro-black hole as quantum states, and using Brown-York quaselocal gravitational energy definition and Heisenberg uncertainty principle, we find out the classical horizon with singularity spreads into a quantum horizon in which…
Recently the difference between the Gibbons-Hawking temperature $T_{\rm GH}$ attributed to the Hawking radiation from the de Sitter cosmological horizon and the twice as high local temperature of the de Sitter state, $T=H/\pi=2T_{\rm GH}$,…
The horizon is a classical concept that arises in general relativity, and is therefore not clearly defined when the source cannot be reliably described by classical physics. To any (sufficiently) localised quantum mechanical wave-function,…
The event horizon is a source of irreversibility, analogous to statistical irreversibility. This is why for systems with an event horizon there is no difference between quantum and thermal fluctuations. Quantum processes of quantum…
There is mounting theoretical evidence that black hole horizons induce decoherence on a quantum system, say a particle, put in a superposition of locations, with the decoherence functional, evaluated after closure of the superposition,…
Different approaches to quantum gravity conclude that black holes may possess an inner horizon, in addition to the (quantum corrected) outer `Schwarzschild' horizon. In this paper we assume the existence of this inner horizon and explain…
We employ the recently proposed formalism of the "horizon wave-function" to investigate the emergence of a horizon in models of black holes as Bose-Einstein condensates of gravitons. We start from the Klein-Gordon equation for a massless…
In this work, we study Hawking radiation from a general static black hole due to tunnelling of particle having nonzero mass. Hawking temperature has been calculated using both the tunnelling method and the Hamilton-Jacobi method and the…
Black holes are famous for their universal behavior. New thermodynamic relations have been found recently for the product of gravitational entropies over all the horizons of a given stationary black hole. This product has been found to be…
