About Astronomy and Space - Black Holes
http://space.about.com/cs/blackholes/index.htm
Find articles, information, and web sites about these theoretical cellestial objects, formed when a massive star collapses from its own gravity.

Black Hole Recipe: Slow Light, Swirl Atoms
http://www.sciencenews.org/articles/20000205/fob4.asp
Physicists may soon create artificial analogs of black holes in the laboratory.

Black Holes
http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/9808035
We review the observational evidence for black holes, and briefly discuss some of their properties. We also describe some recent developments involving cosmic censorship and the statistical origin of black hole entropy

Black holes
http://www.galacticsurf.com/trounoirGB.htm
Portal linking to sites about very high density objects: black holes, neutron stars.

Black Holes and Naked Singularities
http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/9805066
This article gives an elementary review of gravitational collapse and the cosmic censorship hypothesis. Known models of collapse resulting in the formation of black holes and naked singularities are summarized.

Black Holes made Simple
http://www.geocities.com/autotheist/Physics/bh.htm
An overview of modern research in black holes without the use of mathematical equations.

Black Holes: A general introduction
http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/9801252
This article presents in a pictorial way the basic concepts of black hole's theory, as well as a description of the astronomical sites where black holes are suspected to lie.

Cambridge Relativity - Black Holes
http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/user/gr/public/bh_home.html
An overview of black holes and information on current research from Cambridge

Developments in General Relativity: Black Hole Singularity and Beyond
http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/0304052
An outline of the recent achievements in our understanding of the nature of the singularity inside a rotating black hole. This presentation also addresses the questions: "Can we see inside a black hole?" and "Can a falling observer cross the singularity without being crushed?"

Do Black Holes Exist ?

An FAQ list by Matt McIrvin containing basic questions and answers related to black holes.

General Relativity and Black Holes
http://www.astro.ku.dk/~cramer/RelViz/text/exhib1/exhib1.html
A set of notes on aspects of black holes.

Geometry Around Black Holes
http://www.astro.ku.dk/~cramer/RelViz/text/exhib1
An exhibition on relativistic computer dynamics used to present the theory of black holes.

Gravitational Redshift
http://www.astro.ku.dk/~cramer/RelViz/text/exhib3/exhib3.html
An overview of the effects on light in the presence of a black hole.

Hawking Radiation
http://casa.colorado.edu/~ajsh/hawk.html
Classically, black holes are black. Quantum mechanically, black holes radiate, with a radiation known as Hawking radiation, after the British physicist Stephen Hawking who first proposed it.

Higher Dimensional Chern-Simons Theories and Topological Black Holes
http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/9803002
It has been recently pointed out that black holes of constant curvature with a "chronological singularity" can be constructed in any spacetime dimension. In this paper, a brief summary of these new black holes is given.

Introduction to Black Hole Microscopy
http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-th/9510026
The aim of these notes is both to review the standard understanding of the Hawking effect. The fundamentals of the Unruh effect are reviewed, and then the Hawking effect is explained as a ``gravitational Unruh effect".

Jillian's Guide to Black Holes
http://www.gothosenterprises.com/black_holes/
An informal introduction to types, formation, and environment.

A brief mathematical description of this phenomenon and diagrams of the mathematical results.

Modern Research by Eduard Westra
http://www.mso.anu.edu.au/~westra/aoz/
Research done about low mass black holes. On the level of 2nd year astronomy students.

Quantum Fields Near Black Holes
http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-th/9801025
This review gives an introduction into problems, concepts and techniques when quantizing matter fields near black holes. The first part focusses on quantum fields in general curved space-times. The second part is devoted to a detailed treatment of the Unruh effect in uniformly accelerated frames and the Hawking radiation of black holes

Quantum Geometry and Black Holes
http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/9804039
Non-perturbative quantum general relativity provides a possible framework to analyze issues related to black hole thermodynamics from a fundamental perspective.

Schwarzschild Geometry
http://casa.colorado.edu/~ajsh/schwp.html
The Schwarzschild geometry describes the spacetime geometry of empty space surrounding any spherical mass.
