Black Hole Dyson Spheres: Harvesting Disk and Jet Energy Toward Beyond-Type II Civilizations
To the point
A Dyson bubble around a black hole could harvest energy from the accretion disk and jets to power a civilization beyond Type II or even Type III, with the absorbed energy re-emitted as infrared waste heat that telescopes could detect, as shown by Tiger Yu-Yang Hsiao and Tomotsugu Goto in models of spinning and non-spinning black holes.
