In this study, we present a novel exact solution to the gravitational field equations, known as the Ay\'on-Beato-Garc\'ia black hole solution, set against the backdrop of anti-de Sitter space and surrounded by a quintessence field. This…
We study black hole solutions of Einstein gravity coupled to a specific global symmetry breaking Goldstone model described by an O(3) isovector scalar field in four spacetime dimensions. Our configurations are static and spherically…
In a recent Letter we have shown that in shift-symmetric Horndeski theory the scalar field is forced to obtain a nontrivial configuration in black hole spacetimes, unless a linear coupling with the Gauss-Bonnet invariant is tuned away. As a…
Horizon-scale images of black holes (BHs) and their shadows have opened an unprecedented window onto tests of gravity and fundamental physics in the strong-field regime. We consider a wide range of well-motivated deviations from classical…
Janis-Newman-Winicour (JNW) spacetimes generalize the Schwarzschild solution to include a massless scalar field. Although suffering from naked singularities, they share the `frozen star' features of Schwarzschild black holes. Cosmological…
The last years have brought upon us a golden age of observational gravitational physics. The several observations by the LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA collaboration about gravitational waves and by the EHT collaboration about the shadow and lensing of…
We construct a fully analytic, general relativistic, nonspinning black hole binary spacetime that approximately solves the vacuum Einstein equations everywhere in space and time for black holes sufficiently well separated. The metric is…

Spherically symmetric solutions in Brans-Dicke theory of relativity with zero coupling constant, $\omega=0$, are derived in the Schwarzschild line-element. The solutions are obtained from a cubic transition equation with one small…
Shift-symmetric Horndeski theories admit an interesting class of Schwarzschild black hole solutions exhibiting time-dependent scalar hair. By making use of Lema\^{i}tre coordinates, we analyze perturbations around these types of black…
We obtain new solutions of Einsteinian cubic gravity coupled to a Maxwell field that describe the near-horizon geometry of charged and rotating black holes. We show that the AdS$_2\times\mathbb{S}^2$ near-horizon geometry of…
Observations of the S-stars, the cluster of young stars in the inner 0.1 pc of the Galactic Center, have been crucial in providing conclusive evidence for a supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy. Since some of the stars have…
The Schrodinger equation of the Schwarzschild black hole (SBH) is derived via Feynman's path integral approach by re-obtaining the same results found by the Author and collaborators in two recent research papers. In this two-particle system…
Empirically determining the averaged variations of the orbital parameters of the stars orbiting the Supermassive Black Hole (SBH) hosted by the Galactic Centre (GC) in Sgr A* is, in principle, a valuable tool to put on the test the General…
In this paper we consider the Kantowski-Sachs space-time in Ashtekar variables and the quantization of this space-time starting from the complete loop quantum gravity theory. The Kanthowski-Sachs space-time coincides with the Schwarzschild…
Maxwell's equations are invariant under both duality rotations and conformal transformations. Recently Bandos, Lechner, Sorokin, and Townsend have found a nonlinear generalisation of electrodynamics which possesses both of these symmetries.…
We study black holes in the recently proposed ghost-free theory with two gravitons, one of which is massive and another is massless. These black holes possess a regular event horizon which is common for both metrics and has the same values…
We study the geodesic motion of test particles in the space-time of non-compact boson stars. These objects are made of a self-interacting scalar field and -- depending on the scalar field's mass -- can be as dense as neutron stars or even…
A novel class of Buchdahl-inspired metrics with closed-form expressions was recently obtained based on Buchdahl's seminal work on searching for static, spherically symmetric metrics in ${\cal R}^{2}$ gravity in vacuo. Buchdahl-inspired…
