  1. Extraction of Rotation Energy from a Black Hole Kyoto University (YITP) S. Nagataki 18th July 2007, YITP

  2. Gamma-Ray Bursts ~the most powerful explosion in the universe~ Image of GRB970228 by HST Some GRBs are known to be associated with hypernova explosions whose explosion energy is 10^52 erg. = 10 times larger than the explosion energy of a supernova explosion. = 10 times larger than the energy emitted from the sun in its whole life. = 10^31 times larger than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. Feb28th 1997    Mar3rd 1997  Explosion mechanism is still unknown.

  3. Hypernova Explosion Its spectrum is similar to that of a core-collapse supernova (death of a massive star). Hypernova will be also associated with death of a (very) massive star. In a core-collapase supernova, a neutron Star is formed at the center. In a hypernova, a black hole is formed At the center? GRB030329 / SN2003dh

  4. Extraction of Rotation Energy from a Black Hole (BZ effect)? I’m going to study BZ effect numerically. For any stationary system, we can define conserved flux vector for energy. It’s an interesting project! = Axisymmetry Const. Rotation Energy of a central BH If an appropriate Tmunu is put around a BH, energy can be extracted from the BH. Roger and Me 2005, Banff, Canada. Blandford and Znajek (1977)

  5. Numerical simulation of Blandford-Znajek Process Numerical results for energy flux with various a. T=200, c=G=M=1 Red:Numerical Blue:Analytical a=0.95 = For a << 1 Blandford and Znajek (1997) Monopole solution

  6. Formation of a jet (GRB?) from a Kerr BH Beta_min=100 N×N=150×150 a=0.938, with-magnetic field T=1200 R<60 We are planning to include microphysics and perform more realistic simulations of GRBs in the near future. R<300 G=c=M=1
