Some Cosmological Tails of Collapse
Chris M. Chambers, Patrick R. Brady, William Krivan +1
We summarize the results of an investigation into the late time behavior of massless scalar fields propagating on spherically symmetric black hole spacetimes with a non-zero cosmol…
A Critical Look At Massive Scalar Field Collapse
Chris M. Chambers, Patrick R. Brady, Sergio M. C. V. Goncalves
We present the findings of an investigation of critical behavior in the collapse of spherically symmetric distributions of massive scalar field. Two distinct types of phase transit…
The `Ups' and `Downs' of a Spinning Black Hole
Chris M. Chambers, William A. Hiscock, Brett E. Taylor
We report and comment upon the principal results of an investigation into the evolution of rotating black holes emitting massless scalar radiation via the Hawking process. It is de…
The Cauchy Horizon In Black Hole-de Sitter Spacetimes
Chris M. Chambers
The last seven years has produced a growing body of evidence which concludes that the Cauchy horizon in black hole-de Sitter spacetimes is classically stable when the surface gravi…
