2 The Laws of Black Hole Thermodynamics
... is called the Penrose process. Particles far from the black hole cannot have negative energy, so negative-energy orbits are always confined to a region near the horizon. This region is called the ergosphere. (c) Although we can decrease the energy of the charged black hole, we cannot decrease the en ...
