A possible process to destroy a black hole consists on throwing point particles with sufficiently large angular momentum into the black hole. In the case of Kerr black holes, it was shown by Wald that particles with dangerously large angular momentum are simply not captured by the hole, and thus the event horizon is not destroyed. Here we reconsider this gedanken experiment for a variety of black hole geometries, from black holes in higher dimensions to black rings. We show that this particular way of destroying a black hole does not succeed and that Cosmic Censorship is preserved.

We report about the possibility for interacting Kerr sources to exist in two different states - black holes or naked singularities - both states characterized by the same masses and angular momenta. Another surprising discovery reported by us is that in spite of the absence of balance between two Kerr black holes, the latter nevertheless can repel each other, which provides a good opportunity for experimental detection of the spin-spin repulsive force through the observation of astrophysical black-hole binaries.
We study static, spherically symmetric and electrically charged black hole solutions in a quadratic Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity model. Very similar to the uncharged case, black holes undergo spontaneous scalarization for sufficiently large s calar-tensor coupling $gamma$ - a phenomenon attributed to a tachyonic instability of the scalar field system. While in the uncharged case, this effect is only possible for positive values of $gamma$, we show that for sufficiently large values of the electric charge $Q$ two independent domains of existence in the $gamma$-$Q$-plane appear: one for positive $gamma$ and one for negative $gamma$. We demonstrate that this new domain for negative $gamma$ exists because of the fact that the near-horizon geometry of a nearly extremally charged black hole is $AdS_2times S^2$.This new domain appears for electric charges larger than approximately 74$%$ of the extremal charge. For positive $gamma$ we observe that a singularity with diverging curvature invariants forms outside the horizon when approaching extremality.
We present results on the mass and spin of the final black hole from mergers of equal mass, spinning black holes. The study extends over a broad range of initial orbital configurations, from direct plunges to quasi-circular inspirals to more energeti c orbits (generalizations of Newtonian elliptical orbits). It provides a comprehensive search of those configurations that maximize the final spin of the remnant black hole. We estimate that the final spin can reach a maximum spin $a/M_h approx 0.99pm 0.01$ for extremal black hole mergers. In addition, we find that, as one increases the orbital angular momentum from small values, the mergers produce black holes with mass and spin parameters $lbrace M_h/M, a/M_h rbrace$ ~spiraling around the values $lbrace hat M_h/M, hat a/M_h rbrace$ of a {it golden} black hole. Specifically, $(M_h-hat M_h)/M propto e^{pm B,phi}cos{phi}$ and $(a-hat a)/M_h propto e^{pm C,phi}sin{phi}$, with $phi$ a monotonically growing function of the initial orbital angular momentum. We find that the values of the parameters for the emph{golden} black hole are those of the final black hole obtained from the merger of a binary with the corresponding spinning black holes in a quasi-circular inspiral.
We construct a black hole whose interior is the false vacuum and whose exterior is the true vacuum of a classical field theory. From the outside the metric is the usual Schwarzschild one, but from the inside the space is de Sitter with a cosmological constant determined by the energy of the false vacuum. The parameters of the field potential may allow for the false vacuum to exist for more than the present age of the universe. A potentially relevant effective field theory within the context of QCD results in a Schwarzschild radius of about 200 km.
We revisit the physical effects of discrete $mathbb{Z}_p$ gauge charge on black hole thermodynamics, building on the seminal work of Coleman, Preskill, and Wilczek. Realising the discrete theory from the spontaneous breaking of an Abelian gauge theor y, we consider the two limiting cases of interest, depending on whether the Compton wavelength of the massive vector is much smaller or much larger than the size of the black hole -- the so-called thin- and thick-string limits respectively. We find that the qualitative effect of discrete hair on the mass-temperature relationship is the same in both regimes, and similar to that of unbroken $U(1)$ charge: namely, a black hole carrying discrete gauge charge is always colder than its uncharged counterpart. In the thick-string limit, our conclusions bring into question some of the results of Coleman et al., as we discuss. Further, by considering the system to be enclosed within a finite cavity, we argue how the unbroken limit may be smoothly defined, and the unscreened electric field of the standard Reissner-Nordstrom solution recovered.
