The Structure of Magnetically Dominated Energy Extracting Black Hole Magnetospheres: Dependencies on Field Line Angular Velocity
Kevin Thoelecke, Masaaki Takahashi, Sachiko Tsuruta
If a magnetically dominated magnetosphere is to extract a black hole's rotational energy and transmit it to distant regions, then the inner light surface of that magnetosphere must…

Perturbing Monopolar Force-Free Magnetospheres to Slowly Rotating Black Holes
Kevin Thoelecke, Masaaki Takahashi, Sachiko Tsuruta
We study the effects of frame-dragging on the structure of force-free magnetospheres around rotating black holes. For slowly rotating black holes, analytic explorations often focus…
