I will discuss how the effective geometry seen by photons propagating on a non-trivial electromagnetic background within Born-Infeld theory corresponds to an asymmetric wormhole. I will explain some interesting properties of the generated geometry such as the behaviour of null geodesics. Interestingly, the wormhole effective geometry arises for the background fields created by a charged...
The Penrose process consists of transferring energy from a black hole to infinity. This process can be studied in a combined description with the Bañados-Silk-West (BSW) mechanism, which uses collisions of ingoing particles at the event horizon of a black hole to locally produce large amounts of energy. In this talk, the blending of the Penrose process with BSW mechanism is described for a $d$...
We present two nonlinear electromagnetic black hole solutions belonging to the Kerr-Newman-AdS-NUT family, referred to as cubic potential and quartic potential. These solutions are characterized by mass, angular momentum, electric and magnetic charge, the NUT parameter, the cosmological constant, and a nonlinear parameter. We provide the necessary electromagnetic potentials to generate these...
This work explores the extraction of energy from electrostatic black holes through the decay or splitting of electrically charged particles. We establish the energetic criteria for viable extraction, deriving a general expression for the efficiency that depends on black hole and particle parameters. Focusing on Reissner-Nordström (RN) and Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter (RNdS) black holes, we...
We considered the generation of gravitational waves by the binary system associated with a wormhole. In the Newtonian limit, the gravitational potential of a wormhole requires the effective mass of the wormhole taking into account radial tension effects. This definition allows us to derive gravitational wave production in homogeneous and heterogeneous binary systems. Therefore, we studied...
