A new exact solution of the coupled Einstein–Maxwell equations is given and studied. It is found using the soliton method, adding one soliton to the Schwarzschild background. The solution is stationary and axial-symmetric, and has five physical parameters. The physical interpretation we give is that it describes a Kerr–Newman (KN) naked singularity linked by a "strut" to a charged black hole. Indeed, on the axis, between the two bodies an unavoidable anomaly region is present (gφφ < 0 and a conic singularity). The solution is stationary also in the case with zero total angular momentum. Finally, we give the force lines of the electrical field in a general case, and in the case in which the KN singularity has a much smaller mass than the nearby black hole; we also considered the behavior at different distances of the charge. In spite of the naive interpretation suggested by the mathematical construction of the solution, what we expected to be a "Schwarzschild" black hole appears to be charged and rotating; we interpret this fact as a parameter-mixing phenomenon.

We study the geodesics motion of neutral test particles in the static spherically symmetric spacetimes of black holes and naked singularities supported by a selfgravitating real scalar field. The scalar field is supposed to model dark matter surrounding some strongly gravitating object such as the centre of our Galaxy. The behaviour of timelike and null geodesics very close to the centre of such a configuration crucially depends on the type of spacetime. It turns out that a scalar field black hole, analogously to a Schwarzschild black hole, has the innermost stable circular orbit and the (unstable) photon sphere, but their radii are always less than the corresponding ones for the Schwarzschild black hole of the same mass; moreover, these radii can be arbitrarily small. In contrast, a scalar field naked singularity has neither the innermost stable circular orbit nor the photon sphere. Instead, such a configuration has a spherical shell of test particles surrounding its origin and remaining in quasistatic equilibrium all the time. We also show that the characteristic properties of null geodesics near the centres of a scalar field naked singularity and a scalar field black hole of the same mass are qualitatively different.

Set Up

In this paper, the gravitational and electromagnetic signals due to accretion of charged fluids into a Schwarzschild black hole is revisited. We set up the perturbed Einstein equations and Maxwell equations coupled to the fluid equations on a stationary black hole as a system of differential equations that can be integrated as an initial value problem. We numerically investigate cases in which we varied the properties of the fluid. Our scenario may provide an electromagnetic counterpart to gravitational waves in many situations of interest, enabling easier extraction and verification of gravitational waveforms from gravitational wave detection. We find that the features of the resulting electromagnetic signals depend on the properties and dynamics of the flow.

AbstractWe first advance a mathematical novelty that the three geometrically and topologically distinct objects mentioned in the title can be exactly obtained from the Jordan frame vacuum Brans I solution by a combination of coordinate transformations, trigonometric identities and complex Wick rotation. Next, we study their respective accretion properties using the Page–Thorne model which studies accretion properties exclusively for $$r\ge r_{\text {ms}}$$ r ≥ r ms (the minimally stable radius of particle orbits), while the radii of singularity/throat/horizon $$r<r_{\text {ms}}$$ r < r ms . Also, its Page–Thorne efficiency $$\epsilon $$ ϵ is found to increase with decreasing $$r_{\text {ms}}$$ r ms and also yields $$\epsilon =0.0572$$ ϵ = 0.0572 for Schwarzschild black hole (SBH). But in the singular limit $$r\rightarrow r_{s}$$ r → r s (radius of singularity), we have $$\epsilon \rightarrow 1$$ ϵ → 1 giving rise to $$100 \%$$ 100 % efficiency in agreement with the efficiency of the naked singularity constructed in [10]. We show that the differential accretion luminosity $$\frac{d{\mathcal {L}}_{\infty }}{d\ln {r}}$$ d L ∞ d ln r of Buchdahl naked singularity (BNS) is always substantially larger than that of SBH, while Eddington luminosity at infinity $$L_{\text {Edd}}^{\infty }$$ L Edd ∞ for BNS could be arbitrarily large at $$r\rightarrow r_{s}$$ r → r s due to the scalar field $$\phi $$ ϕ that is defined in $$(r_{s}, \infty )$$ ( r s , ∞ ) . It is concluded that BNS accretion profiles can still be higher than those of regular objects in the universe.

Schwarzschild Geometry

This chapter discusses the Schwarzschild black hole. It demonstrates how, by a judicious change of coordinates, it is possible to eliminate the singularity of the Schwarzschild metric and reveal a spacetime that is much larger, like that of a black hole. At the end of its thermonuclear evolution, a star collapses and, if it is sufficiently massive, does not become stabilized in a new equilibrium configuration. The Schwarzschild geometry must therefore represent the gravitational field of such an object up to r = 0. This being said, the Schwarzschild metric in its original form is singular, not only at r = 0 where the curvature diverges, but also at r = 2m, a surface which is crossed by geodesics.

About 10 X-ray binaries in our Galaxy and LMC/SMC are considered to contain black hole candidates (BHCs). Among these objects, Cyg X-1 was identified as the first BHC, and it has led BHCs for more than 25 years(Oda 1977, Liang and Nolan 1984). It is a binary system composed of normal blue supergiant star and the X-ray emitting compact object. The orbital kinematics derived from optical observations indicates that the compact object is heavier than ~ 4.8 M⊙ (Herrero 1995), which well exceeds the upper limit mass for a neutron star(Kalogora 1996), where we assume the system consists of only two bodies. This has been the basis for BHC of Cyg X-1.

Abstract We describe a unitary scattering process, as observed from spatial infinity, of massless scalar particles on an asymptotically flat Schwarzschild black hole background. In order to do so, we split the problem in two different regimes governing the dynamics of the scattering process. The first describes the evolution of the modes in the region away from the horizon and can be analysed in terms of the effective Regge-Wheeler potential. In the near horizon region, where the Regge-Wheeler potential becomes insignificant, the WKB geometric optics approximation of Hawking’s is replaced by the near-horizon gravitational scattering matrix that captures non-perturbative soft graviton exchanges near the horizon. We perform an appropriate matching for the scattering solutions of these two dynamical problems and compute the resulting Bogoliubov relations, that combines both dynamics. This allows us to formulate an S-matrix for the scattering process that is manifestly unitary. We discuss the analogue of the (quasi)-normal modes in this setup and the emergence of gravitational echoes that follow an original burst of radiation as the excited black hole relaxes to equilibrium.
