Astrophysical Black Holes: A Compact Pedagogical Review [PDF]
Annalen Der Physik, 2018 AbstractBlack holes are among the most extreme objects that can be found in the Universe and an ideal laboratory for testing fundamental physics. Here, the basic properties of black holes as expected from general relativity, the main astronomical observations, and the leading astrophysical techniques to probe the strong gravity region of these objects ...

Black holes are the simplest objects in nature. All the matter enter into it with the speed of light at the horizon and thus the inner boundary condition is fixed, independent of whether we study stellar mass black holes (nano‐quasars) or the massive (miliquasars) and super‐massive black holes (Quasars). All types of flows are thus transonic.

The black hole phenomenon is undoubtedly one of the most striking and intriguing of those predicted by theorists. However, a paramount question is: “Do black holes exist in the Universe, or are they only an abstract concept of the human mind?” In principle, a black hole could be built artificially.

The chapter reviews the astrophysical observations of stellar-mass black holes, intermediate mass black holes, supermassive black holes, the observations supporting the idea that these objects are indeed black holes, and the spectral state classification.

Highlights in black hole astrophysics
International Journal of Theoretical Physics, 1989I review the theoretical and observational data supporting the existence of black holes at various mass scales and then give a brief account of the recent progress in the understanding of the stellar tidal disruption process, which is expected to play a prominent role in fuelling large black holes in galactic nuclei.

Astrophysical Black Holes: Evidence of a Horizon?
2013In this Lecture Note we first follow a short account of the history of the black hole hypothesis. We then review on the current status of the search for astrophysical black holes with particular attention to the black holes of stellar origin. Later, we highlight a series of observations that reveal the albeit indirect presence of supermassive black ...

Black Hole Superradiance in Astrophysics
2015BHs are one of the most striking predictions of Einstein’s GR and, in fact, they are predicted by any relativistic theory of gravity [1]. Since Schmidt’s identification of the first quasar [2], large consensus in the astronomy community has mounted that nearly any galactic center harbors a supermassive BH and that compact objects with mass above \(\sim

Black Holes: Physics and Astrophysics
2006I present an elementary primer of black hole physics, including its general relativity basis, all peppered with astrophysical illustrations. Following a brief review of the process stellar collapse to a black hole, I discuss the gravitational redshift, particle trajectories in gravitational fields, the Schwarzschild and Kerr solutions to Einstein’s ...
