CONCLUSION
IV. CONCLUSION I
Evidently, there are many nonstationary phenomena beyond the scope ofmy paper that can play important roles in a reallistic picture of a blackhole magnetosphere.
It is unfortunate that the GSEs for the nonstationary case in Regions 1, 2,and 3, (2.8), (2.10), and (2.13), seem to be too complicated to solvedirectly via analytic methods. If we can solve these GSEs numerically, thenwe will understand the axisymmetric, nonstationary black holemagnetosphere in more rigorous ways.
My future work may include the luminosity variability, the precession of thecentral black holes, the formation of the nodes in the middle of theastrophysical jets, and so on.

CONCLUSION
The Lapse Function
For non-inertial observers, and in general relativity, coordinate systems canbe chosen more freely. For a clock whose spatial coordinates are constant,the relationship between proper time τ and coordinate time t, i.e. therate of time dilation, is given by
dτ
dt=
√−g00
where g00 is a component of the metric tensor, which incorporatesgravitational time dilation (under the convention that the zerothcomponent is timelike).

CONCLUSION
Coordinate Time
In the theory of relativity, it is convenient to express results in terms of aspacetime coordinate system relative to an implied observer. In many (butnot all) coordinate systems, an event is specified by one time coordinateand three spatial coordinates. The time specified by the time coordinate isreferred to as coordinate time to distinguish it from proper time.

CONCLUSION
Proper Time
In relativity, proper time along a timelike world line is defined as the timeas measured by a clock following that line. It is thus independent ofcoordinates, and a Lorentz scalar. This is the quantity of interest, sinceproper time itself is fixed only up to an arbitrary additive constant, namelythe setting of the clock at some event along the world line. The propertime between two events depends not only on the events but also theworld line connecting them, and hence on the motion of the clock betweenthe events. It is expressed as an integral over the world line. Anaccelerated clock will measure a smaller elapsed time between two eventsthan that measured by a non-accelerated (inertial) clock between the sametwo events. The twin paradox is an example of this effect.

CONCLUSION
Force Free Condition
A force-free magnetic field is a magnetic field that arises when the plasmapressure is so small, relative to the magnetic pressure, that the plasmapressure may be ignored, and so only the magnetic pressure is considered.For a force free field, the electric current density is either zero or parallel tothe magnetic field. The name ”force-free” comes from being able toneglect the force from the plasma.
