Black holes as particle accelerators: a brief review
Rapidly rotating Kerr black holes can accelerate particles to arbitrarily high energy if the
angular momentum of the particle is fine-tuned to some critical value. This phenomenon is …

The collisional Penrose process
JD Schnittman - General relativity and gravitation, 2018 - Springer
Shortly after the discovery of the Kerr metric in 1963, it was realized that a region existed
outside of the black hole's event horizon where no time-like observer could remain …
