Energy Extraction via Magnetic Reconnection in Lorentz breaking Kerr-Sen and Kiselev Black Holes

Abstract

Black holes can accumulate a large amount of energy, responsible for highly energetic astrophysical phenomena Recently, fast magnetic reconnection (MR) of the magnetic field was proposed as a new way to extract energy and in this paper, we investigate this phenomena in a bumblebee Kerr-Sen BH. We find that the presence of the charge parameter strongly changes the simple Kerr case, making this extraction mechanism possible even for not extremely rotating black holes ($a \sim 0.7$). We also show that, under appropriate circumstances, MR is more efficient compared to the Blandford-Znajek mechanism. We finally compare these results with quintessence black-hole solutions not finding and enhancement respect to Kerr solution.
