Relativistic disks by Appell-ring convolutions

David Kofroň, Petr Kotlařík, Oldřich Semerák

We present a new method for generating the gravitational field of thin disks within the Weyl class of static and axially symmetric spacetimes. Such a gravitational field is describ…

Static axisymmetric rings in general relativity: How diverse they are

O. Semerák

Three static and axially symmetric (Weyl-type) ring singularities -- the Majumdar-Papapetrou--type (extremally charged) ring, the Bach-Weyl ring and the Appell ring -- are studied…

On geometry of deformed black holes: II. Schwarzschild hole surrounded by a Bach-Weyl ring

M. Basovník, O. Semerák

We continue to study the response of black-hole space-times on the presence of additional strong sources of gravity. Restricting ourselves to static and axially symmetric (electro-…

On geometry of deformed black holes: I. Majumdar-Papapetrou binary

O. Semerák, M. Basovník

Although black holes are eminent manifestations of very strong gravity, the geometry of space-time around and even inside them can be significantly affected by additional bodies pr…

Particles under radiation thrust in Schwarzschild space-time from a flux perpendicular to the equatorial plane

Donato Bini, Andrea Geralico, Robert T. Jantzen +1

Motivated by the picture of a thin accretion disc around a black hole, radiating mainly in the direction perpendicular to its plane, we study the motion of test particles interacti…

Approximating light rays in the Schwarzschild field

Oldrich Semerak

A short formula is suggested which approximates photon trajectories in the Schwarzschild field better than other simple prescriptions from the literature. We compare it with variou…
