SUMMARY:Geodesics and Hidden Symmetries of Doubly-Spinning Black Rings - M

DESCRIPTION:In the last couple of years there has been much progress in co
 nstructing new\nexact vacuum black holes in five dimensions\; but many of 
 the resulting metrics\nare very complicated.  In this talk I discuss the P
 omeransky-Sen'kov\ndoubly-spinning black ring\, probably the most general 
 connected black ring in\n5D.  I will show that it possesses an unexpected 
 amount of hidden symmetry that\nallows the geodesic equation to be solved 
 analytically in certain cases\, with\nthe resulting null geodesics having 
 applications in constructing new\ncoordinates systems that are valid acros
 s the event horizon.
