Cosmological Pair Creation of Charged and Rotating Black Holes
Abstract
Description
In this paper, we investigate the pair creation of charged and rotating black hole pairs in a background with a positive cosmological constant. Instantons to describe this situation are constructed from the Kerr-Newmann deSitter solutions to the Einstein-Maxwell equations and the actions of these instantons are calculated in order to estimate pair creation rates and the entropy of the created spacetimes.
