Phys. Rev. D 56, 2180–2187 (1997)Naked black holesReceived 15 April 1997; published in the issue dated 15 August 1997 It is shown that there are large static black holes for which all curvature invariants are small near the event horizon, yet any object which falls in experiences enormous tidal forces outside the horizon. These black holes are charged and near extremality, and exist in a wide class of theories including string theory. The implications for cosmic censorship and the black hole information puzzle are discussed. © 1997 The American Physical Society URL:
