The Structure of Magnetically Dominated Energy Extracting Black Hole Magnetospheres: Dependencies on Field Line Angular Velocity
Kevin Thoelecke, Masaaki Takahashi, Sachiko Tsuruta
If a magnetically dominated magnetosphere is to extract a black hole's rotational energy and transmit it to distant regions, then the inner light surface of that magnetosphere must…
Perturbing Monopolar Force-Free Magnetospheres to Slowly Rotating Black Holes
Kevin Thoelecke, Masaaki Takahashi, Sachiko Tsuruta
We study the effects of frame-dragging on the structure of force-free magnetospheres around rotating black holes. For slowly rotating black holes, analytic explorations often focus…
Effects of Inner Alfvén Surface Location on Black Hole Energy Extraction in the Limit of a Force-Free Magnetosphere
Kevin Thoelecke, Masaaki Takahashi, Sachiko Tsuruta
An energy extracting black hole magnetosphere can be defined by the location of its inner Alfvén surface, which determines the rate of black hole energy extraction along a given ma…
