UHECR Production and Curvature TeV Emission in Nearby, Dormant AGNs
  The possibility that rapidly rotating supermassive black holes associated with quasar remnants may provide sites for the acceleration of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) is considered. It is shown that prodigious TeV emission through curvature losses is an important consequence of this mechanism. Given the measured UHECR flux, it is expected that nearby dormant AGNs will be detectable by current Tev experiments. The implications for the Sgr A* source are also briefly considered.
