The Reissner-Nordström black hole with the fastest relaxation rate
Shahar Hod
Numerous {\it numerical} investigations of the quasinormal resonant spectra of Kerr-Newman black holes have revealed the interesting fact that the characteristic relaxation times $…
Analytic study of self-gravitating polytropic spheres with light rings
Shahar Hod
Ultra-compact objects describe horizonless solutions of the Einstein field equations which, like black-hole spacetimes, possess null circular geodesics (closed light rings). We stu…
The Hawking paradox and the Bekenstein resolution in higher-dimensional spacetimes
Shahar Hod
The black-hole information puzzle has attracted much attention over the years from both physicists and mathematicians. One of the most intriguing suggestions to resolve the informa…
Lower bound on the compactness of isotropic ultra-compact objects
Shahar Hod
Horizonless spacetimes describing spatially regular ultra-compact objects which, like black-hole spacetimes, possess closed null circular geodesics (light rings) have recently attr…
Black-hole evaporation, cosmic censorship, and a quantum lower bound on the Bekenstein-Hawking temperature
Shahar Hod
The semi-classical Hawking evaporation process of Reissner-Nordström black holes is analyzed. It is shown that this quantum mechanism may turn a near-extremal black-hole spacetime…
Natural broadening in the quantum emission spectra of higher-dimensional Schwarzschild black holes
Shahar Hod
Following an intriguing heuristic argument of Bekenstein, many researches have suggested during the last four decades that quantized black holes may be characterized by discrete ra…
The instability spectra of near-extremal Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter black holes
Shahar Hod
The linearized dynamics of charged massive scalar fields in the near-extremal charged Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter (RNdS) black-hole spacetime is studied analytically. Interestingl…
Stationary bound-state massive scalar field configurations supported by spherically symmetric compact reflecting stars
Shahar Hod
It has recently been demonstrated that asymptotically flat neutral reflecting stars are characterized by an intriguing no-hair property. In particular, it has been proved that thes…
Marginally bound resonances of charged massive scalar fields in the background of a charged reflecting shell
Shahar Hod
We study {\it analytically} the characteristic resonance spectrum of charged massive scalar fields linearly coupled to a spherically symmetric charged reflecting shell. In particul…
Bekenstein, I, and the quantum of black-hole surface area
Shahar Hod
Professor Jacob Bekenstein was known not only for his brilliant and original physical ideas, but also for their clear presentation in his lectures and seminal research papers. I he…
Stationary bound-state scalar configurations supported by rapidly-spinning exotic compact objects
Shahar Hod
Some quantum-gravity theories suggest that the absorbing horizon of a classical black hole should be replaced by a reflective surface which is located a microscopic distance above…
Quasinormal modes and strong cosmic censorship in near-extremal Kerr-Newman-de Sitter black-hole spacetimes
Shahar Hod
The quasinormal resonant modes of massless neutral fields in near-extremal Kerr-Newman-de Sitter black-hole spacetimes are calculated in the eikonal regime. It is explicitly proved…
Strong cosmic censorship in charged black-hole spacetimes: As strong as ever
Shahar Hod
It is proved that dynamically formed Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter (RNdS) black holes, which have recently been claimed to provide counter-examples to the Penrose strong cosmic cens…
