Hairy Black Holes in String Theory

S. B. Giddings, J. A. Harvey, Joseph Polchinski +2

Solutions of bosonic string theory are constructed which correspond to four-dimensional black holes with axionic quantum hair. The basic building blocks are the renormalization gro…

White Holes, Black Holes and Cpt in Two Dimensions

Andrew Strominger

It is argued that a unitarity-violating but weakly CPT invariant superscattering matrix exists for leading-order large- dilaton gravity, if and only if one includes in the Hilbe…

Entropy in Black Hole Pair Production

D. Garfinkle, S. B. Giddings, A. Strominger

Pair production of Reissner-Nordstrom black holes in a magnetic field can be described by a euclidean instanton. It is shown that the instanton amplitude contains an explicit facto…

Four Dimensional Black Holes in String Theory

S. B. Giddings, J. Polchinski, A. Strominger

Exact solutions of heterotic string theory corresponding to four-dimensional charge Q magnetic black holes are constructed as tensor products of an SU(2)/Z(2Q+2) WZW orbifold with…

Numerical Analysis of Black Hole Evaporation

Tsvi Piran, Andrew Strominger

Black hole formation/evaporation in two-dimensional dilaton gravity can be described, in the limit where the number of matter fields becomes large, by a set of second-order par…

Information Consumption by Reissner-Nordstrom Black Holes

A. Strominger, S. P. Trivedi

The low-energy scattering of charged fermions by extremal magnetic Reissner-Nordstrom black holes is analyzed in the large- and -wave approximations. It is shown that (in the…
