A near-extremal black hole refers to a type of black hole that is close to the extremal limit of its charge or angular momentum. In general relativity, black holes can be characterized by their mass, electric charge, and angular momentum. An **extremal black hole** is one that reaches the maximum possible charge or angular momentum for its mass, which means that its properties are at the limits set by the laws of physics.
