Cylindrical Black Hole in General Relativity
نویسنده
چکیده
A black hole solution of Einstein's field equations with cylindrical symmetry is found. Using the Hamiltonian formulation one is able to define mass and angular momentum for the cylindrical black hole through the corresponding and equivalent three dimensional theory. The causal structure is analyzed.

Three-dimensional BTZ black hole as a cylindrical system in four-dimensional general relativity.
It is shown how to transform the three dimensional BTZ black hole into a four dimensional cylindrical black hole (i.e., black string) in general relativity. This process is identical to the transformation of a point particle in three dimensions into a straight cosmic string in four dimensions. PACS numbers: 04.40.Nr, 04.20.Cv.
متن کاملQuasi-normal Modes of Toroidal, Cylindrical and Planar Black Holes in Anti-de Sitter Spacetimes: Scalar, Electromagnetic and Gravitational Perturbations
We study the quasi-normal modes (QNM) of scalar, electromagnetic and gravitational perturbations of black holes in general relativity whose horizons have toroidal, cylindrical or planar topology in an asymptotically anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime. The associated QNM frequencies describe the decay in time of the corresponding test field in the vicinities of the black hole. In terms of the AdS/CF...

متن کاملNumerical modeling of black holes as sources of gravitational waves in a nutshell
These notes summarize basic concepts underlying numerical relativity and in particular the numerical modeling of black hole dynamics as a source of gravitational waves. Main topics are the 3+1 decomposition of general relativity, the concept of a well-posed initial value problem, the construction of initial data for general relativity, trapped surfaces and gravitational waves. Also, a brief sum...
متن کاملMeasurements of Black Hole Spins and Tests of Strong-Field General Relativity
Fast variability studies of accreting black holes in the Galaxy offer us a unique opportunity to measure the spins of black holes and test the strong-field behavior of general relativity. In this review, I summarize the arguments often used in attempts of measuring the spins of black holes, concentrating on their theoretical foundations. I also argue that X-ray studies of accreting black holes ...
