Extreme mass ratio head-on collisions of black holes in Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet theory
Antonia M. Frassino, David C. Lopes, Jorge V. Rocha
The evolution of the event horizon when two black holes merge can be determined by resorting to ray-tracing techniques on a single black hole spacetime, under the assumption that t…
Weak Cosmic Censorship with spinning particles in Kerr-(A)dS spacetimes
Antonia M. Frassino, Jorge V. Rocha, Andrea P. Sanna
We investigate the weak cosmic censorship conjecture by analyzing the dynamics of spinning timelike particles dropped along the rotational axis of an extremal Kerr (anti)de Sitter…
Quantum censors: backreaction builds horizons
Antonia M. Frassino, Robie A. Hennigar, Juan F. Pedraza +1
Cosmic censorship posits spacetime singularities remain concealed behind event horizons, preserving the determinism of General Relativity. While quantum gravity is expected to reso…

Edgardo Franzin, Antonia M. Frassino, Jorge V. Rocha
Tidal Love numbers of anti-de Sitter black holes are understood as linear response coefficients governing how the holographically dual plasma polarizes when the geometry of the spa…
