Black holes (BHs) formed by collapsing and/or merging of magnetized progenitors, have magnetic fields penetrating the event horizon, and there are several possible scenarios. Thus, the no-hair theorem that assumes the outside medium is a…
We uncover the physical nature of the electric and magnetic monopoles discovered by McGuire and Ruffini on Misner strings accompanying charged nutty black holes, showing that these strings carry singular, nonuniform flows of electric and…
In this work we construct a static and spherically symmetric black hole geometry supported by a family of generic mono-parametric sources thorough the Gravitational Decoupling. The parameter characterizing the matter sector can be…
We constrain a broad class of "hairy" black hole models capable of directly sourcing electromagnetic radiation during a binary black hole merger. This signal is generic and model-independent since it is characterized by the black hole mass…
In Einstein-Maxwell theory black holes are uniquely determined by their mass, their charge and their angular momentum. This is no longer true in Einstein-Yang-Mills theory. We discuss sequences of neutral and charged SU(N)…
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…
In a recent letter, we presented numerical relativity simulations, solving the full Einstein--Maxwell--Klein-Gordon equations, of superradiantly unstable Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes (BHs), enclosed in a cavity. Low frequency, spherical…
For generic theories of nonlinear electrodynamics (NLED) we investigate the implications of (a)causality on spherically-symmetric solutions of the Einstein-NLED equations that are asymptotic to a Reissner-Nordstr\"om (RN) spacetime.…
Any recipe to grow black hole hair has to circumvent no-hair theorems by violating some of their assumptions. Recently discovered hairy black hole solutions exist due to the fact that their scalar fields don't inherit the symmetries of the…
Three - dimensional static and spinning black hole solutions of the Einstein-Klein-Gordon system are obtained for a particular scalar field configuration. At large distances, and for small scalar field, the solutions reduce to the BTZ black…
The no-hair theorem by Mayo and Bekenstein states that there exists no non-extremal static and spherical charged black hole endowed with hair in the form of a charged scalar field with a self-interaction potential. In our recent work, we…
A linear coupling between a scalar field and the Gauss-Bonnet invariant is the only known interaction term between a scalar and the metric that: respects shift symmetry; does not lead to higher order equations; inevitably introduces black…
Within the framework of scalar-tensor theories of gravity, certain models can evade classical black hole no-hair theorems. A well-known example is Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity, where black holes carrying a scalar charge can exist.…
We consider a self-interacting, massive scalar field (non)minimally coupled to new massive gravity in three dimensions. For this model, we first derive a family of black hole solutions depending on a unique integration constant and…
We study hair mass distributions in noncommutative Einstein-Born-Infeld hairy black holes with non-zero cosmological constants. We find that the larger noncommutative parameter makes the hair easier to condense in the near horizon area. We…
We present explicit black holes endowed with primary scalar hair within the shift-symmetric subclass of Beyond Horndeski theories. These solutions depend, in addition to the conventional mass parameter, on a second free parameter encoding…
We construct a new one-parameter family indexed by $\epsilon$ of two-ended, spatially-homogeneous black hole interiors solving the Einstein-Maxwell-Klein-Gordon equations with a (possibly zero) cosmological constant $\Lambda$ and…
We construct charged soliton solutions around spherical charged black holes with no angular momentum in asymptotically flat spacetime. These solutions are non-linear generalizations of charged scalar clouds, dubbed Q-ball hair or Q-clouds,…
During the last two decades solutions of black holes with various types of "hair" have been discovered. Remarkably, it has been established that many of these hairy black holes are unstable-- under small perturbations the hair may collapse.…
We describe a new type of hair on supersymmetric black string and black ring solutions, which produces the largest known violation of black hole uniqueness, parameterized by an arbitrary function and hence an infinite number of continuous…
