Black-Hole Engine Kinematics, Flares from PKS 2155-304, and Multiwavelength Blazar Analysis
Charles D. Dermer, Justin D. Finke, Govind Menon
Kinematical and luminosity relations for black-hole jet sources are reviewed. If the TeV flares observed from PKS 2155-304 in 2006 July are assumed to originate from a black hole w…

A Class of Exact Solution to the Blandford-Znajek Process
Govind Menon, Charles D. Dermer
We analyze the constraint equation giving allowed solutions describing fields and currents in a force-free magnetosphere around a rotating black hole. Utilizing the divergence prop…

Analytic Solutions to the Constraint Equation for a Force-Free Magnetosphere around a Kerr Black Hole
Govind Menon, Charles D. Dermer
The Blandford-Znajek constraint equation for a stationary, axisymmetric black-hole force-free magnetosphere is cast in a 3+1 absolute space and time formulation, following Komissar…
