Superradiant scattering by rotating black-bounce black holes

preprint2026arXivOpen access

Abstract

We investigate superradiant scattering off a rotating regular black hole described by a black-bounce metric which generalizes the Kerr spacetime of mass MM and specific angular momentum aa through a regularization parameter pp and two deformation exponents (k,n)(k,n). Focusing on massless (ℓ,m)=(1,1)(\ell,m)=(1,1) scalar modes, we explore the parameter space and compute amplification factors by numerically integrating the separated radial Klein-Gordon equation. We track the peak amplification and the corresponding frequency across the (a/M,p/M)(a/M,p/M) parameter space for several combinations of kk and nn. We find that increasing nn systematically enhances superradiance, whereas increasing kk tends to suppress it. In particular, certain configurations yield amplification levels up to 98% larger than the maximum amplification for standard Kerr black holes.
