On the Smarr formula for rotating dyonic black holes
read the original abstract
We revisit the derivation by Tomimatsu of the generalized Komar integrals giving the mass and angular momentum of rotating Einstein-Maxwell black holes. We show that, contrary to Tomimatsu's claim, the usual Smarr formula relating the horizon mass and angular momentum still holds in the presence of both electric and magnetic charges. The simplest case is that of dyonic Kerr-Newman black holes, for which we recover the modified Smarr formula relating the asymptotic mass and angular momentum, the difference between asymptotic and horizon masses being equal to the sum of the two Dirac string masses. Our results apply in particular to the case of dyonic dihole solutions which have been investigated recently.

Gravielectric and gravimagnetic fluxes in nutty black holes
Misner strings carry singular gravielectric and gravimagnetic fluxes that connect horizons to infinity, explaining negative Komar masses as incoming field lines and showing the strings are massless empty tubes.
