Photon Spheres, ISCOs, and OSCOs: Astrophysical Observables for Regular Black Holes with Asymptotically Minkowski Cores [PDF]

open access: yesUniverse, 2020
Classical black holes contain a singularity at their core. This has prompted various researchers to propose a multitude of modified spacetimes that mimic the physically observable characteristics of classical black holes as best as possible, but that ...

First Detection of an Overmassive Black Hole Galaxy UHZ1: Evidence for Heavy Black Hole Seed Formation from Direct Collapse

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The recent Chandra-JWST discovery of a quasar in the z ≈ 10.1 galaxy UHZ1 reveals that accreting supermassive black holes were already in place 470 million years after the Big Bang. The Chandra X-ray source detected in UHZ1 is a Compton-thick quasar with

Astrophysical hints for magnetic black holes [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2020
We discuss a cornucopia of potential astrophysical signatures and constraints on magnetically charged black holes of various masses. As recently highlighted, being potentially viable astrophysical candidates with immense electromagnetic fields, they may ...

Numerical simulations of the Cosmic Battery in accretion flows around astrophysical black holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We implement the KORAL code to perform two sets of very long general relativistic radiation magnetohydrodynamic simulations of an axisymmetric optically thin magnetized flow around a non-rotating black hole: one with a new term in the electromagnetic ...

Black holes surrounded by generic dark matter profiles: Appearance and gravitational-wave emission [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2023
We develop a numerical approach to find asymptotically flat black hole solutions coupled to anisotropic fluids, described by generic density profiles. Our model allows for a variety of applications in realistic astrophysical scenarios, and is potentially

Quasiperiodic oscillations around hairy black holes in Horndeski gravity [PDF]

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal C, 2023
Testing gravity theories and their parameters using observations is an important issue in relativistic astrophysics. In this context, we investigate the motion of test particles and their harmonic oscillations in the spacetime of non-rotating hairy black

Event Horizon Telescope observations as probes for quantum structure of astrophysical black holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The need for a consistent quantum evolution for black holes has led to proposals that their semiclassical description is modified not just near the singularity, but at horizon or larger scales.

Shadows of loop quantum black holes: semi-analytical simulations of loop quantum gravity effects on Sagittarius A* and M87* [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2023
In this study, we delve into the observational implications of rotating Loop Quantum Black Holes (LQBHs) within an astrophysical framework. We employ semi-analytical General Relativistic Radiative Transfer (GRRT) computations to study the emission from ...

Possibility of hypothetical stable micro black hole production at future 100 TeV collider

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2017
We study the phenomenology of TeV-scale black holes predicted in theories with large extra dimensions, under the further assumption that they are absolutely stable. Our goal is to present an exhaustive analysis of safety of the proposed 100 TeV collider,

Distinguishing Brans–Dicke–Kerr type naked singularities and black holes with their thin disk electromagnetic radiation properties

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2020
The possible existence of naked singularities, hypothetical astrophysical objects, characterized by a gravitational singularity without an event horizon is still an open problem in present day astrophysics.
