Abstract

We consider collision of two particles 1 and 2 near the horizon of the extremal Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m (RN) black hole that produce two other particles 3 and 4. There exists such a scenario that both new particles fall in a black hole. One of them emerges from the white hole horizon in the asymptotically flat region, the other one oscillates between turning points. However, the unbounded energies EE at infinity (super-Penrose process - SPP) turn out to be impossible for any finite angular momenta L3.4L_{3.4}. In this sense, the situation for such a white hole scenarios is opposite to the black hole ones, where the SPP is found earlier to be possible for the RN metric even for all Li=0L_{i}=0. However, if L3,4L_{3,4} themselves are unbounded, the SPP does exist for white holes.
