Gauge Invariant Perturbations of the Schwarzschild Spacetime

Jonathan E. Thompson, Hector Chen, Bernard F. Whiting

Beginning with the pioneering work of Regge and Wheeler (Phys. Rev. 108, 1957), there have been many studies of perturbations away from the Schwarzschild spacetime background. In p…

Self-force as a cosmic censor in the Kerr overspinning problem

Marta Colleoni, Leor Barack, Abhay G. Shah +1

It is known that a near-extremal Kerr black hole can be spun up beyond its extremal limit by capturing a test particle. Here we show that overspinning is always averted once back-r…
