On the properties of the Ernst–Manko–Ruiz equatorially antisymmetric solutions

Abstract: Abstract. Two new equatorially antisymmetric solutions recently published by Ernst et al are studied. For both solutions the full set of metric functions is derived in explicit analytic form and the behavior of the solutions on the symmetry axis is analyzed. It is shown in particular that two counter-rotating equal Kerr-Newman-NUT objects will be in equilibrium when the condition m 2 + ν 2 = q 2 + b 2 is verified, whereas two counter-rotating equal masses endowed with arbitrary magnetic and electric dipole mom… Show more

“…It is generally assumed that, except in the special case of the static Majumdar-Papapetrou linear superpositions, multi-black hole systems are unbalanced, and the force necessary to stabilize such systems is proportional to the tension (1 − α S )/4 (or (1 −α S )/4 in the horizon co-rotating frame) of the interconnecting cosmic string(s). Indeed it has been shown [21,22] that balance between two non-degenerate black holes cannot be achieved without intermediate conical singularities. The situation concerning rotating multiblack hole systems with degenerate horizons is less clear.…”

“…It should be emphasized that the correctness of Tomimatsu's integral formulae was checked both analytically and numerically in numerous papers devoted to binary black-hole systems. Nonetheless, in the recent articles [9,10] dealing with a reparametrization of the Ernst-Manko-Ruiz (EMR) solution for charged counterrotating sources [11,12] some modifications of the mass formula were implemented by the authors that led them to physically inconsistent results, as has been pointed out in [13]. In this respect, it would be certainly desirable, on the one hand, to figure out the precise source of the problem lying behind the results of [9,10] and, on the other hand, to show how the correct use of Tomimatsu's formulae is able to describe properly the electric and magnetic charge contributions in the generalized Smarr formula.…”

“…Since the identical KN black holes are counter-rotating and have opposite electric charges, the full metric exhibits an equatorial antisymmetry property in the sense proposed by Ernst et al [17] and further studied by Sod-Hoffs et al [18]. The solution Eq.…”
