Overcharging higher-dimensional black holes with point particles

KS Revelar, I Vega - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
We investigate the possibility of overcharging spherically symmetric black holes in
spacetime dimensions D> 4 by the capture of a charged particle. We generalize Wald's …

Self-action in gravity

N Khusnutdinov - The European Physical Journal Plus, 2021 - Springer
A particle moving with variable acceleration in the flat space-time affects the self-force due to
outgoing radiation. The gravitational fields bring an additional contribution to self-force due …

Self-forces on static bodies in arbitrary dimensions

AI Harte, ÉÉ Flanagan, P Taylor - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
We derive exact expressions for the scalar and electromagnetic self-forces and self-torques
acting on arbitrary static extended bodies in arbitrary static spacetimes with any number of …

Self-force from a conical singularity, without renormalization

M LaHaye, E Poisson - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
We develop an approach to calculate the self-force on a charged particle held in place in a
curved spacetime, in which the particle is attached to a massless string and the force is …

Self-force on a scalar charge in a circular orbit about a Reissner-Nordström black hole

J Castillo, I Vega, B Wardell - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
Motivated by applications to the study of self-force effects in scalar-tensor theories of gravity,
we calculate the self-force exerted on a scalar charge in a circular orbit about a Reissner …

Self-force on a static particle near a black hole

P Krtouš, A Zelnikov - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
We study the self-force acting on a static charged pointlike particle near a Schwarzschild
black hole. We obtain the pointlike particle as a limit of a spacetime describing a big neutral …

Electromagnetic self-force in the five dimensional Myers–Perry space–time

H Nadi, B Mirza, Z Mirzaiyan - Annals of Physics, 2019 - Elsevier
We calculate the effects of the electromagnetic self-force on a charged particle outside a five
dimensional Myers–Perry space–time. Based on our earlier work (Mirzaiyan et al., 2018), we …

Self-force as a probe of global structure

K Davidson, E Poisson - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
We calculate the self-force on an electric charge and electric dipole held at rest in a closed
universe that results from joining two copies of Minkowski spacetime at a common boundary …

Electrostatic self-force in the field of an (n + 1)-dimensional black hole: Dimensional regularization

YV Grats, PA Spirin - Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics, 2016 - Springer
The self-energy of a classical charged particle localized at a relatively large distance outside
the event horizon of an (n+ 1)-dimensional Schwarzschild–Tangherlini black hole for an …

Smith–Will force in higher dimensions

YV Grats, P Spirin - The Fourteenth Marcel Grossmann Meeting On …, 2018 - World Scientific
We compute the self-energy of a static classical point-like charge (coupled with scalar or
vector massless field), localized at the distance r≫ rg outside the horizon of (n+ 1) …
