An exact solution of Einsteins equations which represents a pair of accelerating and rotating black holes (a generalised form of the spinning C-metric) is presented. The starting point is a form of the Plebanski-Demianski metric which, in addition to the usual parameters, explicitly includes parameters which describe the acceleration and angular velocity of the sources. This is transformed to a form which explicitly contains the known special cases for either rotating or accelerating black holes. Electromagnetic charges and a NUT parameter are included, the relation between the NUT parameter $l$ and the Plebanski-Demianski parameter $n$ is given, and the physical meaning of all parameters is clarified. The possibility of finding an accelerating NUT solution is also discussed.

We present and analyze a class of exact spacetimes which describe accelerating black holes with a NUT parameter. First, we verify that the intricate metric found by Chng, Mann and Stelea in 2006 indeed solves Einsteins vacuum field equations of General Relativity. We explicitly calculate all components of the Weyl tensor and determine its algebraic structure. As it turns out, it is actually of algebraically general type I with four distinct principal null directions. It explains why this class of solutions has not been (and could not be) found within the large Plebanski-Demianski family of type D spacetimes. Then we transform the solution into a much more convenient metric form which explicitly depends on three physical parameters: mass, acceleration, and the NUT parameter. These parameters can independently be set to zero, recovering thus the well-known spacetimes in standard coordinates, namely the C-metric, the Taub-NUT metric, the Schwarzschild metric, and flat Minkowski space. Using this new metric, we investigate physical and geometrical properties of such accelerating NUT black holes. In particular, we localize and study four Killing horizons (two black-hole plus two acceleration) and investigate the curvature. Employing the scalar invariants we prove that there are no curvature singularities whenever the NUT parameter is nonzero. We identify asymptotically flat regions and relate them to conformal infinities. This leads to a complete understanding of the global structure. The boost-rotation metric form reveals that there is actually a pair of such black holes. They uniformly accelerate in opposite directions due to the action of rotating cosmic strings or struts located along the corresponding two axes. Rotation of these sources is directly related to the NUT parameter. In their vicinity there are pathological regions with closed timelike curves.
An analytical metric of four-dimensional General Relativity, representing an array of collinear and accelerating black holes, is constructed with the inverse scattering method. The solution can be completely regularised from any conical singularity, thanks to the presence of an external gravitational field. Therefore the multi-black hole configuration can be maintained at equilibrium without the need of string or struts. Some notable subcases such as the accelerating distorted Schwarzschild black hole and the double distorted C-metric are explicitly presented. The Smarr law and the thermodynamics of these systems is studied. The Bonnor-Swaminarayan and the Biv{c}ak-Hoenselaers-Schmidt particle metrics are recovered, through appropriate limits, from the multi-black holes solutions.
Using the covariant phase space formalism, we compute the conserved charges for a solution, describing an accelerating and electrically charged Reissner-Nordstrom black hole. The metric is regular provided that the acceleration is driven by an external electric field, in spite of the usual string of the standard C-metric. The Smarr formula and the first law of black hole thermodynamics are fulfilled. The resulting mass has the same form of the Christodoulou-Ruffini mass formula. On the basis of these results, we can extrapolate the mass and thermodynamics of the rotating C-metric, which describes a Kerr-Newman-(A)dS black hole accelerated by a pulling string.
We study the interior of distorted stationary rotating black holes on the example of a Kerr black hole distorted by external static and axisymmetric mass distribution. We show that there is a duality transformation between the outer and inner horizons of the black hole, which is different from that of an electrically charged static distorted black hole. The duality transformation is directly related to the discrete symmetry of the space-time. The black hole horizons area, surface gravity, and angular momentum satisfy the Smarr formula constructed for both the horizons. We formulate the zeroth, the first, and the second laws of black hole thermodynamics for both the horizons of the black hole and show the correspondence between the local and the global forms of the first law. The Smarr formula and the laws of thermodynamics formulated for both the horizons are related by the duality transformation. The distortion is illustrated on the example of a quadrupole and octupole fields. The distortion fields noticeably affect the proper time of a free fall from the outer to the inner horizon of the black hole along the symmetry semi-axes. There is some minimal non-zero value of the quadrupole and octupole moments when the time becomes minimal. The minimal proper time indicates the closest approach of the horizons due to the distortion.
Black holes found in binaries move at very high velocities relative to our own reference frame and can accelerate due to the emission of gravitational radiation. Here, we investigate the numerical stability and late-time behavior of linear scalar perturbations in accelerating black holes described by the $C-$metric. We identify a family of quasinormal modes associated with the photon surface and a brand new family of purely imaginary modes associated with the boost parameter of the accelerating black hole spacetime. When the accelerating black hole is charged, we find a third family of modes which dominates the ringdown waveform near extremality. Our frequency and time domain analysis indicate that such spacetimes are stable under scalar fluctuations, while the late-time behavior follows an exponential decay law, dominated by quasinormal modes. This result is in contrast with the common belief that such perturbations, for black holes without a cosmological constant, always have a power-law cutoff. In this sense, our results suggest that the asymptotic structure of black hole backgrounds does not always dictate how radiative fields behave at late times.
