Charged cosmological black holes: a thorough study of a family of solutions

Abstract

We study a class of charged cosmological black holes defined by the Shah-Vaidya solution, which is similar to the McVittie solution but for a central object of nonzero electric charge. We show that the Shah-Vaidya metric is a solution of Einstein's equations with a cuscuton and a Maxwell fields as sources, as well as a mass parameter. We then analyze the possible causal structures of the solution under some few physically reasonable assumptions, and determine the regions in the parameter space corresponding to well behaved charged cosmological black holes and those corresponding to naked singularities. The asymptotic behavior of the Hubble factor $H(t)$ is also determinant to the causal properties of the spacetime and a theorem explaining its effect is stated. Examples of causal diagrams covering all the possibles types of spacetimes allowed by our initial assumptions are drawn and discussed.
