Black holes as particle accelerators: a brief review

T Harada, M Kimura - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
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 …

Weakly magnetized black holes as particle accelerators

VP Frolov - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2012 - APS
We study the collision of particles in the vicinity of a horizon of a weakly magnetized
nonrotating black hole. In the presence of the magnetic field innermost stable circular orbits …

Equatorial circular motion in Kerr spacetime

D Pugliese, H Quevedo, R Ruffini - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2011 - APS
We analyze the properties of circular orbits of test particles on the equatorial plane of a
rotating central mass whose gravitational field is described by the Kerr spacetime. For …

Particle dynamics near Kerr-MOG black hole

M Sharif, M Shahzadi - The European Physical Journal C, 2017 - Springer
This paper explores the dynamics of both neutral and charged particles orbiting near a
rotating black hole in scalar–tensor–vector gravity. We study the conditions for the particle to …

Upper limits of particle emission from high-energy collision and reaction<? format?> near a maximally rotating Kerr black hole

T Harada, H Nemoto, U Miyamoto - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2012 - APS
The center-of-mass energy of two particles colliding near the horizon of a maximally rotating
black hole can be arbitrarily high if the angular momentum of either of the incident particles …

Ultrahigh-energy debris from the collisional Penrose process

E Berti, R Brito, V Cardoso - Physical Review Letters, 2015 - APS
Soon after the discovery of the Kerr metric, Penrose realized that superradiance can be
exploited to extract energy from black holes. The original idea (involving the breakup of a …

Rotating 4D Gauss–Bonnet black hole as a particle accelerator

AN Kumara, CLA Rizwan, K Hegde, MS Ali, KM Ajith - Annals of Physics, 2021 - Elsevier
We demonstrate that the rotating four-dimensional Gauss–Bonnet black hole can act as a
particle accelerator with arbitrarily high centre-of-mass (CM) energy, when collision of two …

Rotating Hayward's regular black hole as particle accelerator

M Amir, SG Ghosh - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 - Springer
A bstract Recently, Bañados, Silk and West (BSW) demonstrated that the extremal Kerr black
hole can act as a particle accelerator with arbitrarily high center-of-mass energy (E CM) …

Geodesics and shadow formed by a rotating Gauss–Bonnet black hole in AdS spacetime

M Zahid, SU Khan, J Ren… - International Journal of …, 2022 - World Scientific
The latest findings of static and spherically symmetric black hole solution give a potential
platform to investigate the novel four-dimensional Einstein Gauss–Bonnet gravity. In order to …
