We investigate the pair production near a (near) extremal magnetized Reissner-Nordstrom black hole. The pair production is shown to exist in the extremal state, which can be interpreted as the Schwinger effect due to the strong field under…
Pair production of Reissner-Nordstrom black holes in a magnetic field can be described by a euclidean instanton. It is shown that the instanton amplitude contains an explicit factor of $e^{A/4}$, where $A$ is the area of the event horizon.…

Electron-positron pairs may be produced near accreting black holes by a variety of physical processes, and the resulting pair plasma may be accelerated and collimated into a relativistic jet. Here we use a self-consistent dynamical and…

I consider a truncation of low-energy string theory which contains two $U(1)$ gauge fields. After making some general comments on the theory, I describe a previously-obtained instanton for the pair creation of black holes when both gauge…
By allowing the lightcones to tip over according to the conservation laws of an one-kink in static, Schwarzschild metric, we show that there also exists an instanton which represents production of pairs of chargeless, nonrotating black…

We examine Poynting flux generation due to pair plasma accreting onto a slowly rotating black hole. In particular, we consider the possibility of an outgoing flux at the horizon. Our approach is based on a two-fluid model representing a…
Near-extremal black holes have a long AdS$_2$ throat in their near-horizon region. Quantum fluctuations in the throat region are effectively governed by a quantum version of Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity with matter and are strongly coupled at…
