Area Quantization in Quasi-Extreme Black Holes
We consider quasi-extreme Kerr and quasi-extreme Schwarzschild-de Sitter
black holes. From the known analytical expressions obtained for their
quasi-normal modes frequencies, we suggest an area quantization prescription
for those objects.Comment: Final version to appear in Mod. Phys. Lett.
High overtones of Dirac perturbations of a Schwarzschild black hole
Using the Frobenius method, we find high overtones of the Dirac quasinormal
spectrum for the Schwarzschild black hole. At high overtones, the spacing for
imaginary part of is equidistant and equals to
, ( is the black hole mass), which
is twice less than that for fields of integer spin. At high overtones, the real
part of goes to zero. This supports the suggestion that the
expected correspondence between quasinormal modes and Barbero-Immirzi parameter
in Loop Quantum Gravity is just a numerical coincidence.Comment: 5 pages, Latex, 3 figures, Physical Review D.,at pres
Quasi-normal modes of the scalar hairy black hole
We calculate QNMs of the scalar hairy black hole in the AdS background using
Horowitz-Hubeny method for the potential that is not known in analytical form.
For some black hole parameters we found pure imaginary frequencies. Increasing
of the scalar field mass does not cause the imaginary part to vanish, it
reaches some minimum and then increases, thus in the case under consideration
the infinitely long living modes (quasi-resonances) do not appear.Comment: 17 pages, 17 figures, LaTe
Gravitational energy of a magnetized Schwarzschild black hole - a teleparallel approach
We investigate the distribution of gravitational energy on the spacetime of a
Schwarzschild black hole immersed in a cosmic magnetic field. This is done in
the context of the {\it Teleparallel Equivalent of General Relativity}, which
is an alternative geometrical formulation of General Relativity, where gravity
is describe by a spacetime endowed with torsion, rather than curvature, with
the fundamental field variables being tetrads. We calculate the energy enclosed
by a two-surface of constant radius - in particular, the energy enclosed by the
event horizon of the black hole. In this case we find that the magnetic field
has the effect of increasing the gravitational energy as compared to the vacuum
Schwarzschild case. We also compute the energy (i) in the weak magnetic field
limit, (ii) in the limit of vanishing magnetic field, and (iii) in the absence
of the black hole. In all cases our results are consistent with what should be
expected on physical grounds.Comment: version to match the one to be published on General Relativity and

The gravitational energy-momentum flux
We present a continuity equation for the gravitational energy-momentum, which
is obtained in the framework of the teleparallel equivalent of general
relativity. From this equation it follows a general definition for the
gravitational energy-momentum flux. This definition is investigated in the
context of plane waves and of cylindrical Einstein-Rosen waves. We obtain the
well known value for the energy flux of plane gravitational waves, and conclude
that the latter exhibit features similar to plane electromagnetic waves.Comment: 20 pages, latex file, no figures, two references added, accepted for
