Numerical studies of gravitational collapse in isotropic coordinates have recently shown an interesting connection between the gravitational Lagrangian and black hole thermodynamics. A study of the actual spacetime was not the main focus of…
Starting from Israel equations for the spherically symmetric thin shells we introduce the effective potential and show how it can be used in constructing, without further thorough investigation, the corresponding Carter-Penrose diagrams…
We present exact black hole solutions endowed with magnetic charge coming from exponential and logarithmic nonlinear electrodynamics (NLED). Classically, we analyze the null and timelike geodesics, all of which contain both the bound and…
The interaction between three photons is studied in de Sitter ambient space formalism. As a special case the half harmonic generator is considered, {\it i.e.} one photon decays to two same-energy photons. The scattering matrix elements are…
Wormholes are hypothetical objects which can be black hole mimickers with strong gravitational fields. Recently, Wielgus et al. have constructed reflection-asymmetric thin-shell wormholes which are composed of the parts of a Schwarzschild…
We investigate the bound orbits of massive/massless, neutral particles and photons moving around regular black holes of Fan and Wang. For massive particles, we show the existence of stable/unstable circular orbits and the charge dependence…
We explore numerically the evolution of a collapsing spherical shell of charged, massless scalar field. We obtain an external \RN space-time, and an inner space-time that is bounded by a singularity on the Cauchy Horizon. We compare these…
A rotating thin shell in a (2+1)-dimensional asymptotically AdS spacetime is studied. The spacetime exterior to the shell is the rotating BTZ spacetime and the interior is the empty spacetime with a cosmological constant. Through the…
Spatial geometry of charged thin rotating and non-rotating rings in a rotating frame is investigated. It is shown, on an example of interaction between a charged probe and two positive charged non-rotating and negative charged rotating…
In this article, we consider spherical thin shells of matter surrounding black holes in F(R) theories of gravity. We study the stability of the static configurations under perturbations that conserve the symmetry. In particular, we analyze…
All possible evolution scenarios of a thin vacuum shell surrounding the spherically symmetric de Sitter space have been determined and the corresponding global geometries have been constructed. Such configurations can appear at the final…
We consider Finsler submanifolds $M^n$ of nonnegative Ricci curvature in a Minkowski space $\mathbb{M}^{n+p}$ which contain a line or whose relative nullity index is positive. For hypersurfaces, submanifolds of codimension two or of…
The lightlike geometry of codimension two spacelike submanifolds in Lorentz-Minkowski space has been developed in [Izumiya, S. and Romero Fuster, M. C. Selecta Mathematica (NS), 13 23--55 (2007)] which is a natural Lorentzian analogue of…
We investigate the photon sphere and the extremal stable circular orbit (ESCO) for massive particles over a recently proposed regular black holes with sub-Planckian curvature and Minkowskian core. We derive the effective potential for…
A model for a possible variable cosmic object is presented. The model consists of a massive shell surrounding a compact object. The gravitational and self-gravitational forces tend to collapse the shell, but the internal tangential stresses…
Counter-rotating galaxies host two components rotating in opposite directions with respect to each other. The kinematic and morphological properties of lenticulars and spirals hosting counter-rotating components are reviewed. Statistics of…
We investigate the thermodynamic equilibrium states of a rotating thin shell, i.e., a ring, in a (2+1)-dimensional spacetime with a negative cosmological constant. The inner and outer regions with respect to the shell are given by the…
Highly curved spacetimes of compact astrophysical objects are known to possess light rings (null circular geodesics) with {\it discrete} radii on which massless particles can perform closed circular motions. In the present compact paper, we…
Applying the junction conditions to the slowly rotating Kerr spacetime with a thin shell, we find that while the angular momentum $L$ and Carter constant $C$ of the ray remain unchanged upon crossing the shell, its energy $E$ does not.…
Unique features of particle orbits produce novel signatures of gravitational observable phenomena, and are quite useful in testing compact astrophysical objects in general relativity or modified theories of gravity. Here we observe a…
