Abstract
The black holes we have considered up to now are solutions of the Einstein or Einstein-Maxwell equations. Only these black holes are important for astrophysical applications. Recently, there has been an enormous increase of interest in black hole physics on the part of scientists traditionally working in high energy physics. This is largely connected with attempts to construct a unified theory of all interactions, including gravity.
