THE PENROSE PROCESS OF KERR-TAUB-NUT SPACETIME

Abstract

The electromagnetic mechanism of the extraction of the rotational energy of black holes by Blandford & Znajek is considered as one of the most promising models for powering the relativistic jets active galactic nuclei (AGN), gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and galactic black hole binaries .When this mechanism is described in terms of classical physics the horizon of compact objects is often compared with a rotating magnetized conductor
