Geodesic Geometry of Black Holes

The study of geodesics is of intrinsic significance in the study of the geometry of space-time. In this thesis null, space-like and time-like geodesics are studied in the case of the space-times of…

The black hole as a gravitational ``lens''

We discuss the ‘‘images’’ formed when the light from a distant source suffers a large deflection in the intense gravitational field in the immediate vicinity of a Schwarzschild black hole. The light…

Is there a black hole in the sky?

The recent discovery1 that the two quasars, Hazard 1146+111B,C, separated by 157 arc s, are in fact two images of the same quasar raises the question: what massive object is responsible for…

The Mathematical Theory of Black Holes

In a course of lectures on the ‘underlying mathematical structures of classical gravitation theory’ given in 1978, Brandon Carter began with the statement ‘If I had been asked five years ago to…
