Joule-Thomson expansion of hyperscaling violating black holes with spherical and hyperbolic horizons

Kaluza-Klein Black Holes with Squashed Horizons

We study geometrical structures of charged static black holes in the five-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory. The black holes we study have horizons in the form of squashed S3, and their asymptotic structure consists of a twisted S1 bundle over the four-dimensional flat spacetime at the spatial infinity. The spacetime we consider is fully five-dimensional in the vicinity of the black hole and ...

Black holes as local horizons

This talk gives a brief introduction to black hole horizons and their role in black hole thermodynamics. In particular a distinction is made between quasilocally defined horizons and event horizons. Currently some new techniques have led to interesting developments and the field seems to be growing in two distinct directions. We will show how thermodynamics can equally well be applied to locall...

Black Holes: New Horizons (11w5099)

This meeting was a joint activity of 3 theoretical physics institutes: Institute of Theoretical Physics of the University of Alberta (Canada), Asia Pacific Center for Theoretical Physics (Korea), and Yukawa Institute of Theoretical Physics (Kyoto, Japan). The meeting attracted leading experts in the field from 10 countries. As a result we had very fruitful and informative discussions of the exc...

Dilaton black holes with squashed horizons and their thermodynamics

New charged solutions describing black holes with squashed horizons in 5D dilaton gravity are presented. The black hole spacetimes are asymptotically locally flat and have a spacial infinity R× S →֒ S. The solutions are analyzed and their thermodynamics is discussed by using the counterterm method.
