Pair creation of anti–de Sitter black holes on a cosmic string background
We analyze the quantum process in which a cosmic string breaks in an anti--de Sitter (AdS) background, and a pair of charged or neutral black holes is produced at the ends of the strings. The energy to materialize and accelerate the pair comes from the string tension. In an AdS …
