The string spectrum on the horizon of a non-extremal black hole

We investigate the conformal string σ-model corresponding to a general five-dimensional non-extremal black hole solution. In the horizon region the theory reduces to an exactly solvable conformal field theory. We determine the modular invariant spectrum of physical string states, which expresses the Rindler momentum operator in terms of three charges and string oscillators. For black holes with winding and Kaluza-Klein charges, we find that states made with only right-moving excitations have ADM mass equal to the black hole ADM mass, and thus they can be used as sources of the gravitational field. A discussion on statistical entropy is included.     

Scalar and Dirac quasinormal modes of scalar-tensor-Gauss-Bonnet black holes

This study explores the scalar and Dirac quasinormal modes pertaining to a class of black hole solutions in the scalar-tensor-Gauss-Bonnet theory. The black hole metrics in question are novel analytic solutions recently derived in the extended version of the theory, which effectively follows at the level of the action of string theory. Owing to the existence of a nonlinear electromagnetic field, the black hole solution possesses a nonvanishing magnetic charge. In particular, the metric is capable of describing black holes with distinct characteristics by assuming different values of the ADM mass and the magnetic charge. This study investigates the scalar and Dirac perturbations in these black hole spacetimes; in particular, we focus on two different types of solutions, based on distinct horizon structures. The properties of the complex frequencies of the obtained dissipative oscillations are investigated, and the stability of the metric is subsequently addressed. We also elaborate on the possible implications of this study.     

Bouncing cosmological solutions due to the self-gravitational corrections and their stability

In this paper we consider the bouncing braneworld scenario, in which the bulk is given by a five-dimensional AdS black hole spacetime with matter field confined in a 3D brane. Exploiting the CFT/FRW-cosmology relation, we consider the self-gravitational corrections to the first Friedmann-like equation which is the equation of the brane motion. The self-gravitational corrections act as a source of stiff matter contrary to standard FRW cosmology, where the charge of the black hole plays this role. Then we study the stability of solutions with respect to homogeneous and isotropic perturbations. Specifically, if we do not consider the self-gravitational corrections, the AdS black hole with zero ADM mass and open horizon is an attractor, while, if we consider the self-gravitational corrections, the AdS black hole with zero ADM mass and flat horizon is a repeller.     

Hawking radiation via tunnelling from black holes with topological defects

In this paper, we extend Parikh's recent work to two kinds of the black holes whose ADM mass is no longer identical to its mass parameter, each with a topological defect, one being a global monopole black hole and another a cosmic string black hole. We view Hawking radiation as a tunnelling process across the event horizon and calculate the tunnelling probability. From the tunnelling probability we also find a leading correction to the semiclassical emission rate. The results are consistent with an underlying unitary theory.     

A Modified Thermodynamics Method to Generate Exact Solutions of Einstein Equations

We modify the method to generate the exact solutions of the Einstein equations basing on the laws of thermodynamics. Firstly, the Komar mass is used to take the place of the Misner-Sharp energy, which is used in the original methods, and then several exact solutions of Einstein equations are obtained, including the black hole solution which is surrounded by quintessence. Moreover, the geometry surface gravity defined by Komar mass is also constructed.Secondly, we use both the Komar mass and the ADM mass to modify such method, and the similar results are obtained.Moreover, with some generalize addition to the definition of the ADM mass, our method can be generalized to global monopole spacetime.     

Cold plasma dispersion relations in the vicinity of a Schwarzschild black hole horizon

We apply the ADM 3 + 1 formalism to derive the general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic equations for cold plasma in spatially flat Schwarzschild metric. Respective perturbed equations are linearized for non-magnetized and magnetized plasmas both in non-rotating and rotating backgrounds. These are then Fourier analyzed and the corresponding dispersion relations are obtained. These relations are discussed for the existence of waves with positive angular frequency in the region near the horizon. Our results support the fact that no information can be extracted from the Schwarzschild black hole. It is concluded that negative phase velocity propagates in the rotating background whether the black hole is rotating or non-rotating.     

Binary black hole in a double magnetic monopole field

Ambient magnetic fields are thought to play a critical role in black hole jet formation. Furthermore, dual electromagnetic signals could be produced during the inspiral and merger of binary black hole systems. In this paper, we derive the exact solution for the electromagnetic field occurring when a static, axisymmetric binary black hole system is placed in the field of two magnetic or electric monopoles. As a by-product of this derivation, we also find the exact solution of the binary black hole configuration in a magnetic or electric dipole field. The presence of conical singularities in the static black hole binaries represent the gravitational attraction between the black holes that also drag the external two monopole field. We show that these off-balance configurations generate no energy outflows.     

Evolution of Bouncing Cosmological Models Due to the Self-Gravitational Corrections

A four-dimensional timelike brane with non-zero energy density is considered as the boundary of a five dimensional Schwarzschild anti de Sitter bulk background. The self-gravitational corrections to the first Friedmann equation act as a source of stiff matter contrary to standard FRW cosmology where the charge of the black hole plays this role. In a previous related paper (Setare in Eur. Phys. J. C 47:851, [2006]), bouncing cosmology was studied, from a holographic perspective, for the very special case of a brane that is void of any intrinsic matter sources. In this paper we extend the results of (Setare in Eur. Phys. J. C 47:851, [2006]). We consider the physically relevant case in which a perfect fluid with equation of state of radiation is present on the brane. Then, we describe solutions of the braneworld theory under investigation and also determine their stability. Specifically, if we do not consider the self-gravitational corrections, the AdS black hole with zero ADM mass, and open horizon is an attractor, while, if we consider, the AdS black hole with zero ADM mass and flat horizon, and D3-brane with non-zero energy density is a repeller.     

Black hole solutions in heterotic string theory on a torus

We construct the general electrically charged, rotating black hole solution in the heterotic string theory compactified on a six-dimensional torus and study its classical properties. This black hole is characterized by its mass, angular momentum, and a 28-dimensional electric charge vector. We recover the axion-dilaton black holes and Kaluza-Klein black holes for special values of the charge vector. For a generic black hole of this kind, the 28-dimensional magnetic dipole moment vector is not proportional to the electric charge vector, and we need two different gyromagnetic ratios for specifying the relation between these two vectors. We also give an algorithm for constructing a 58 parameter rotating dyonic black hole solution in this theory, characterized by its mass, angular momentum, a 28-dimensional electric charge vector and a 28-dimensional magnetic charge vector. This is the most general asymptotically flat black hole solution in this theory consistent with the no-hair theorem.     

Entropy Correction for Kerr Black Hole

In this paper, we discuss leading-order corrections to the entropy of Kerr black hole due to thermal fluctuations in the finite cavity. Then temperature is constant, the solution of the black hole is obtained within a cavity, that is, the solution of the spacetime after considering the radiation of the black hole. Therefore, we derive that the location of the black hole horizon and specific heat are the functions of temperature and the radius of the cavity. Corrections to entropy also are related to the radius of the cavity. Through calculation, we obtain conditions of taking the value of the cavity＇s radius. We provide a new way for studying the corrections of complicated spacetimes.     

Phantom Dilaton Field and Asymptotic Distribution Parameter in (2+1)-Dimensional Maxwell-Chern-Simons Gravity

The (2+1)-dimensional Maxwell-Chern-Simons gravity with phantom dilaton field coupling is studied in this paper.It is shown that black hole solution to exist when electromagnetic coupled to dilaton field in the non-trivial way.Moreover,asymptotic index and distribution parameter of current density are calculated by using black hole solution,some new features of this solution are briefly discussed.     

Thermodynamics of DBI Black Holes in Anti-de Sitter Spacetime

Through the gauge field theory, we obtain the solution of the DBI-AdS black hole. In the meantime, according to the relations between the action and the grand partition function, we obtain the grand partition function in the DBI-AdS black hole. The temperature and the potential of the DBI-AdS black hole are gained from differential of the grand partition function. With the thermodynamic relations, other thermodynamics are also obtained. The solution and the thermodynamics of the DBI-AdS black hole are turned out that they can reduce to the case of a charged black hole in four-dimensional spacetimes.     

Coalescing Black Hole Solution in the De-Sitter Universe

A new coalescing black hole solution of Einstein-Maxwell equation in general relativity is given. The new solution is also found to support the “Nernst Theorem” of thermodynamics in the case of black hole. Thus this solution poses to solve an outstanding problem of thermodynamics and black hole physics.     

QUASILOCAL ENERGY FOR STATIONARY AXISYMMETRIC EMDA BLACK HOLE

By using Brown-York quasilocal energy theory we calculate the quasilocal energy of a stationary axisymmetic EMDA black hole and explore the universality of Martinez's conjecture in string theory. We show that the energy is positive and monotonically decreases to the ADM mass at spatial infinity, and the Martinez's conjecture, the Brown-York quasilocal energy at the outer horizon reduces to twice its irreducible mass, is still valid for stationary axisymmetric EMDA black hole. From the result we also find that the Kerr-Sen spacetime keeps up with Martinez's conjecture. This is different from the Bose-Naing result that the quasilocal energy of the Kerr-Sen spacetime does not approach the Martinez's conjecture.     

On the Quasinormal Modes for Gravitational Perturbations of the Bardeen Black Hole

We investigate gravitational perturbations on a regular black hole described by the Bardeen solution. Bardeen’s black hole is a solution of Einstein’s equations with no singularity at the origin of the radially symmetric system. Notwithstanding this regularity, the Bardeen solution still has event horizons dependent on its characteristic parameters. When a black hole is perturbed, it oscillates and gives rise to damped vibrational modes known as quasinormal modes. Here, we compute the quasinormal frequencies of a regular black hole to third order in the WKB approximation for gravitational perturbations.     

CHARGED STATIC CYLINDRICAL BLACK HOLE

The charged static eylindrical black hole solution of the Einstein-Maxwell equations with negative cosmological constant is obtained. The properties of the solution are analyzed. The first law of thermodynamics for the cylindrical black hole is written down. Unlike the Reissner-Nordstr?m black hole, its heat capacity is always positive.     

Black Hole Formation by Canonical Dynamics of Gravitating Shells: An Equatorial View

Gravitating shells lead to simple minisuperspacemodels of black hole formation by gravitational collapseof matter. I interpret here the Hajicek–Kijowskivariational principle for spacetime with a shell as a Dirac–ADM action principle along atimelike foliation including the shell as a leaf. Byreducing this action by spherical symmetry, I obtain theHamiltonian constraint of a collapsing dust shell and use it as a prelude to canonicalquantization.     

A boosted Kerr black hole solution and the structure of a general astrophysical black hole

A solution of Einstein’s vacuum field equations that describes a boosted Kerr black hole relative to an asymptotic Lorentz frame at future null infinity is derived. The solution has three parameters (mass, rotation and boost) and corresponds to the most general configuration that an astrophysical black hole must have; it reduces to the Kerr solution when the boost parameter is zero. In this solution the ergosphere is north-south asymmetric, with dominant lobes in the direction opposite to the boost. However the event horizon, the Cauchy horizon and the ring singularity—which are the core of the black hole structure—do not alter, being independent of the boost parameter. Possible consequences for astrophysical processes connected with Penrose processes in the asymmetric ergosphere are discussed.     

Cosmological black holes: A black hole in the Einstein-de Sitter universe

As an example of a dynamical cosmological black hole, a spacetime that describes an expanding black hole in the asymptotic background of the Einstein-de Sitter universe is constructed. The black hole is primordial in the sense that it forms ab initio with the big bang singularity and its expanding event horizon is represented by a conformal Killing horizon. The metric representing the black hole spacetime is obtained by applying a time dependent conformal transformation on the Schwarzschild metric, such that the result is an exact solution with a matter content described by a two-fluid source. Physical quantities such as the surface gravity and other effects like perihelion precession, light bending and circular orbits are studied in this spacetime and compared to their counterparts in the gravitational field of the isolated Schwarzschild black hole. No changes in the structure of null geodesics are recorded, but significant differences are obtained for timelike geodesics, particularly an increase in the perihelion precession and the non-existence of circular timelike orbits. The solution is expressed in the Newman-Penrose formalism.     

Stationary solutions of the Dirac equation in the gravitational field of a charged black hole

A stationary solution of the Dirac equation in the metric of a Reissner-Nordström black hole has been found. Only one stationary regular state outside the black hole event horizon and only one stationary regular state below the Cauchy horizon are shown to exist. The normalization integral of the wave functions diverges on both horizons if the black hole is non-extremal. This means that the solution found can be only the asymptotic limit of a nonstationary solution. In contrast, in the case of an extremal black hole, the normalization integral is finite and the stationary regular solution is physically self-consistent. The existence of quantum levels below the Cauchy horizon can affect the final stage of Hawking black hole evaporation and opens up the fundamental possibility of investigating the internal structure of black holes using quantum tunneling between external and internal states.
