Arguments presented in an earlier paper, demonstrating the breakdown of global supersymmetry in Hawking radiation from a generic four dimensional black hole with infalling massless scalar and spinor particles, are reexamined. Careful…
By etching a hole in the mirrors or by placing a scatterer in the center of a cavity, we can create a sink for light. In a Bose-Einstein condensate of photons this sink results in the creation of a so-called radial vortex, which is a…
Recently a method has been developed for relating four dimensional Schwarzschild black holes in M-theory to near-extremal black holes in string theory with four charges, using suitably defined ``boosts'' and T-dualities. We show that this…
Classical general relativity predicts a singularity at the center of a black hole, where known laws of physics break down. This suggests the existence of deeper, yet unknown principles of Nature. Among various theoretical possibilities, one…

We study the physics of photon rings in a wide range of axisymmetric black holes admitting a separable Hamilton-Jacobi equation for the geodesics. Utilizing the Killing-Yano tensor, we derive the Penrose limit of the black holes, which…

We study quasinormal modes and grey-body factors of a massive scalar field in the background of a Schwarzschild black hole surrounded by a spherically symmetric galactic dark matter halo. The background metric, recently obtained as an…
Generalizing previous quantum gravity results for Schwarzschild black holes from 4 to D>4 spacetime dimensions yields an energy spectrum E_n = n^{1-1/(D-2)} sigma E_P, n=1,2,..., sigma = O(1). Assuming the degeneracies of these levels to be…
We investigate a generalized Chaplygin-like gas with an anisotropic equation of state, characterizing a dark fluid within which a static spherically symmetric black hole is assumed. By solving the Einstein equations for this black hole…
We develop a novel technique through spectral decompositions to study the gravitational perturbations of a black hole, without needing to decouple the linearized field equations into master equations and separate their radial and angular…
Causal radial geodesics with a positive interval in the Schwarzschild metric include a subset of trajectories completely confined under a horizon, which compose a thermal statistical ensemble with the Hawking-Gibbons temperature. The…
The properties of the relativistic rings which show up in images of a source when a black hole lies between the source and observer are examined. The impact parameters are calculated, along with the distances of closest approach of the rays…
In this article we investigate the properties of the asymptotically Schwarzschild-like metric as an alternative to the Schwarzschild solution in General Relativity. While asymptotically flat and similar to Schwarzschild at large distances…
In this paper, we derive an exact black hole spacetime metric in the Einstein-Hilbert-Bumblebee (EHB) gravity around global monopole field. We study the horizon, temperature, and the photon sphere of the black hole. Using the null geodesics…
We describe the gravitational degrees of freedom of the Schwarzschild black hole by one free variable. We introduce an equation which we suggest to be the Schroedinger equation of the Schwarzschild black hole corresponding to this model. We…
A localised particle in Quantum Mechanics is described by a wave packet in position space, regardless of its energy. However, from the point of view of General Relativity, if the particle's energy density exceeds a certain threshold, it…
