Collisional Penrose process of extended test particles near an extremal Kerr black hole
Abstract: We investigate the collisional Penrose process of extended test particles near extremal Kerr black holes using the pole-dipole-quadrupole approximation. We analyze the motion of the test particles and examine the dynamics and maximum efficiency of energy extraction in this process. Our results demonstrate that the maximum extracted energy in the collisional Penrose process is influenced by the spin s and quadrupolar parameter CES2 of the test particles. Specifically, we observe that, at a fixed collisional position, the energy extraction efficiency decreases as the spin increases for either the pole-dipole or the pole-dipole-quadrupole approximation case. Furthermore, for a fixed spin, the energy extraction efficiency is higher in the pole-dipole-quadrupole approximation compared to the pole-dipole approximation. These findings provide insight into the role of the internal structures of the test particles in the collisional Penrose process.
