in recent years mobile networks have expanded dramatically, compared with other wireless networks. routing protocols in these networks are designed with the assumption that there is no attacker node, so routing protocols are vulnerable to various attacks in these networks. in this paper, we review the network layer attacks and then we simulate the impact of black hole attack on ad hoc on demand...

We study the compact binary population in star clusters, focusing on binaries containing neutron stars and black holes, using a self-consistent Monte Carlo treatment of dynamics and full stellar evolution. We find that the black holes experience strong mass segregation and become centrally concentrated. In the core the black holes interact strongly with each other and black hole-black hole bina...

We derive a universal upper bound to the entropy of a charged system. The entropy bound follows from application of the generalized second law of thermodynamics to a gedanken experiment in which an entropy-bearing charged system falls into a charged black hole. This bound is stronger than the Bekenstein entropy bound for neutral systems. Black-hole physics mirrors thermodynamics in many respect...

We propose a method for measuring the black hole charge by imaging a black hole shadow in a galactic center by future interferometers. Even when the black hole is uncharged, it is possible to confirm the charge neutrality by this method. We first derive the analytic formulae of the black hole shadow in an optically thin medium around a charged spinning black hole, and then investigate how conto...

We discuss the implementation of a new regular algorithm for simulation of the gravitational few-body problem. The algorithm uses components from earlier methods, including the chain structure, the logarithmic Hamiltonian, and the time-transformed leapfrog. The code can be used for the normal N -body problem, as well as for problems with softened potentials and/or with velocity-dependent extern...

Multidimensional cosmological, static spherically symmetric and Euclidean configurations are described in a unified way for gravity interacting with several dilatonic fields and antisymmetric forms, associated with electric and magnetic p -branes. Exact solutions are obtained when certain vectors, built from the input parameters of the model, are either orthogonal in minisuperspace, or form mut...

It is shown explicitly, that a number of solutions for the background field equations of the string effective action in space-time dimensionD can be generated from any known lower dimensional solution, when background fields have only time dependence. An application of the result to the two dimensional charged black hole is presented. The case of background with more general coordinate dependen...

We construct approximate analytical solutions to the constraint equations of general relativity for binary black holes of arbitrary mass ratio in quasicircular orbit. We adopt the puncture method to solve the constraint equations in the transverse-traceless decomposition and consider perturbations of Schwarzschild black holes caused by boosts and the presence of a binary companion. A superposit...

It is no longer considered surprising that black holes have temperatures and entropies. What remains surprising, though, is the universality of these thermodynamic properties: their exceptionally simple and general form, and the fact that they can be derived from many very different descriptions of the underlying microscopic degrees of freedom. I review the proposal that this universality arise...
