Kerr-Newman and Genuine Kerr Black Holes in the Bertotti-Robinson Magnetic Field
feeds.aps.org · By Hryhorii Ovcharenko & Jiří Podolský ·
The Brief
- Ovcharenko and Podolský present a spacetime describing a rotating, charged black hole immersed in an external magnetic (or electric) field.
- The external field is oriented along the black hole's rotational axis.
- The solution is characterized by four physical parameters.
Why it matters
It offers an exact theoretical model of a rotating charged black hole in an external field, which can serve as a reference case for studying black hole physics in such settings.
Who’s affected
- theoretical physicists and astrophysicists working on general relativity and black holes
