Using the inverse scattering method we construct an exact stationary asymptotically flat 4+1-dimensional vacuum solution describing “black saturn”: a spherical black hole surrounded by a black ring.…
A supersymmetric black ring.
- H. Elvang, R. Emparan, D. Mateos, H. Reall
- PhysicsPhysical Review Letters
- 9 July 2004
This is the first example of a supersymmetric, asymptotically flat black hole of nonspherical topology that has an event horizon of topology S1 x S2 and is uniquely specified by its electric charge and two independent angular momenta.
Supersymmetric black rings and three-charge supertubes
- H. Elvang, R. Emparan, D. Mateos, H. Reall
- Physics
- 16 August 2004
We present supergravity solutions for $1/8$-supersymmetric black supertubes with three charges and three dipoles. Their reduction to five dimensions yields supersymmetric black rings with regular…
Non-supersymmetric black rings as thermally excited supertubes
- H. Elvang, R. Emparan, P. Figueras
- Physics
- 13 December 2004
We construct a seven-parameter family of supergravity solutions that describe non-supersymmetric black rings and black tubes with three charges, three dipoles and two angular momenta. The black rings…
Soft Photon and Graviton Theorems in Effective Field Theory.

- 22 November 2016
It is proved that effective operators can result in new terms in the soft theorems at sub leading order for photons and subsubleading order for gravitons, and it is shown that no local operators can modify the subleading soft graviton theorem.
Black Rings, Supertubes, and a Stringy Resolution of Black Hole Non-Uniqueness
- H. Elvang, R. Emparan
- Physics
- 1 October 2003
In order to address the issues raised by the recent discovery of non-uniqueness of black holes in five dimensions, we construct a solution of string theory at low energies describing a…
On renormalization group flows and the a-theorem in 6d
- H. Elvang, D. Freedman, Ling-Yan Hung, Michael Kiermaier, R. Myers, S. Theisen
- Physics

Generating tree amplitudes in Script N = 4 SYM and Script N = 8 SG
- M. Bianchi, H. Elvang, D. Freedman
- Physics
- 6 May 2008
We study n-point tree amplitudes of = 4 super Yang-Mills theory and = 8 supergravity for general configurations of external particles of the two theories. We construct generating functions for…
