Distinguishing Kerr naked singularities and black holes using the spin precession of a test gyro in strong gravitational fields
Chandrachur Chakraborty, Prashant Kocherlakota, Mandar Patil +3
We study here the precession of the spin of a test gyroscope attached to a stationary observer in the Kerr spacetime, specifically, to distinguish naked singularity (NS) from black…
Curious case of gravitational lensing by binary black holes: a tale of two photon spheres, new relativistic images and caustics
Mandar Patil, Priti Mishra, D. Narasimha
Binary black holes have been in limelight off late due to the detection of gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries in the events GW150914 and GW151226. In this paper w…
Charged Particle Monitor on the AstroSat mission
A. R. Rao, M. H. Patil, Yash Bhargava +17
Charged Particle Monitor (CPM) on-board the AstroSat satellite is an instrument designed to detect the flux of charged particles at the satellite location. A Cesium Iodide Thallium…
