Quasi-Black Holes from Extremal Charged Dust
Jose' P. S. Lemos, Erick J. Weinberg
One can construct families of static solutions that can be viewed as interpolating between nonsingular spacetimes and those containing black holes. Although everywhere nonsingular,…
Black holes with hair
Erick J. Weinberg
I review some recent results on black holes with hair. I focus on the magnetically charged black holes in spontaneously broken Yang-Mills-Higgs theories and on the related self-gra…
Monopoles and the Emergence of Black Hole Entropy
Arthur Lue, Erick J. Weinberg
One of the remarkable features of black holes is that they possess a thermodynamic description, even though they do not appear to be statistical systems. We use self-gravitating ma…
Are All Static Black Hole Solutions Spherically Symmetric?
S. Alexander Ridgway, Erick J. Weinberg
The static black hole solutions to the Einstein-Maxwell equations are all spherically symmetric, as are many of the recently discovered black hole solutions in theories of gravity…
Magnetically Charged Black Holes with Hair
Erick J. Weinberg
In these lectures the properties of magnetically charged black holes are described. In addition to the standard Reissner-Nördstrom solution, there are new types of static black hol…
