Electromagnetic extraction of energy from Kerr black holes
arXiv:astro-ph/0506302 · doi:10.1093/pasj/58.6.1047
Abstract
We elucidate the `right' process for energy extraction from Kerr black holes through `FFDE' magnetospheres, free from causality violation. It is shown that the magnetosphere of a Kerr black hole possesses the double-structure, consisting of the inner and outer magnetospheres with the pair-creation gap between them and with respective unipolar batteries at the inner and outer surfaces of the gap.
