Abstract: Superradiance is a radiation enhancement process that involves dissipative systems. In General Relativity, black-hole superradiance is permitted by dissipation at the event horizon that allows for energy and angular momentum extraction from the vacuum, even at the classical level.

Abstract: Spherically symmetric black hole solutions of Einstein-Yang-Mills (EYM) theory have been studied for 25 years. In the past 15 years there has been a particular focus on EYM black holes in anti-de Sitter space (adS) since, unlike the situation in asymptotically flat space, in adS stable hairy EYM black holes exist.
