Acceleration radiation, quasinormal modes and quasi-bound states in generic rotating regular black holes

Abstract

We study horizon-brightened acceleration radiation for a neutral scalar field in separable Kerr-like rotating metrics with nonlinear-electrodynamic mass profiles. The principal branch has $M=0$ and $μ=3$, with finite but direction-dependent central curvature limits. An analytic extremal charge--spin parametrization fixes the black hole domain. At a simple outer horizon, the scalar equation reduces to local conformal quantum mechanics with corotating energy $\epsh=ω-m\OmH$. For an isolated outgoing channel we derive the first finite-gap correction in proper time, including the radial Frobenius coefficient, angular variation, geodesic terms, and switching slope. This replaces a coordinate-dependent trajectory-phase multiplier by a protocol-defined detailed-balance affinity. Direct integration of the outgoing scalar equation and an equatorial infalling trajectory validates the expansion for an explicitly specified finite gate; a solvable logarithmic-mode limit separates switching from geometric contributions. We also analyze forced equatorial circular atoms and show that co-rotating and counter-rotating ultra-relativistic motion yields a mode-dependent orbital response rather than the infalling Hawking affinity. We identify the shrinking near-extremal radial scale and quantify the effect of an unselected second radial branch, without asserting a uniform extremal limit. Random atomic injection gives a selected-mode master equation and a nonnegative population entropy-production identity. A direct first-law integrability test shows why horizon-area bookkeeping remains conditional for this off-shell metric. Independently converged Chebyshev scalar quasinormal frequencies validate the WKB results and probe the exterior geometry beyond the leading horizon data. The calculation distinguishes branch-resolved horizon thermality, finite detector protocol, and exterior scalar dynamics.

The shadow radius lower bound is more robust than the photon sphere radius lower bound in $n$-dimensional Einstein gravity

The photon sphere and the black hole shadow are two closely related geometric features of strong-field spacetimes: the photon sphere is a hypersurface foliated by circular null geodesics, while the shadow boundary is determined by the critical impact parameter for null-geodesic capture. For static, spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat black holes in $n$-dimensional ($n\ge4$) Einstein gravity with anisotropic matter, we derive lower bounds on the shadow radius and the photon sphere radius and compare their matter assumptions. Assuming that an auxiliary function $Ξ(r)$ satisfies $-ρ\leΞ\le p_r$ and $(r^2Ξ)'\ge0$ between the horizon and the photon sphere under consideration, we establish $r_γ\ge[(n-1)/2]^{1/(n-3)}r_H$, where $r_H$ is the event horizon radius. Writing the shadow radius as $r_{\mathrm{sh}}=[\max_{r>r_H}U(r)]^{-1/2}$, where $U(r)$ is the null effective potential, we obtain $r_{\mathrm{sh}}/r_H\ge[(n-1)/2]^{1/(n-3)}\sqrt{(n-1)/(n-3)}$ using only $ρ\ge0$ and $ρ+p_r\ge0$, both implied by the weak energy condition (WEC). This shadow bound holds irrespective of the number of photon spheres and does not require the additional matter conditions used in the photon sphere lower-bound proofs. In this sense, the lower bound on the shadow radius is more robust than that on the photon sphere radius. A four-dimensional configuration satisfying the WEC has a single exterior photon sphere and obeys the shadow bound while violating the photon sphere lower-bound inequality, demonstrating this distinction even when both radii are associated with the same photon sphere. Both lower bounds are saturated by the Schwarzschild--Tangherlini solution. In Appendix~A, we also derive the mass-dependent upper bounds under the WEC, the strong energy condition, and suitable asymptotic decay assumptions.

Probing near-zone magnetic fields with extreme mass-ratio inspirals

We investigate whether weak near-zone magnetic fields can leave observable imprints on extreme-mass-ratio inspiral (EMRI) waveforms. The central massive black hole is modeled by the magnetized Schwarzschild, or Ernst, solution, and the secondary compact object is treated as a neutral point particle on equatorial circular geodesics. We compute the magnetic corrections to the circular-orbit quantities and the innermost stable circular orbit, and then evolve the inspiral using a hybrid, source-corrected Regge--Wheeler--Zerilli approximation, in which the Schwarzschild wave-propagation potentials are kept fixed while the source is evaluated on the magnetized orbit. For a fiducial system with \(M=10^6M_\odot\) and \(μ=10M_\odot\), a field strength \(B\simeq 4\times10^{-5}M^{-1}\), corresponding to \(B_{\rm phys}\sim10^9\,{\rm G}\), produces a one-year dephasing of about \(1.3\) rad and \ccr{a LISA-noise-weighted mismatch which, after maximization over the relative arrival time and initial GW phase, remains slightly above the adopted distinguishability threshold at one year}. Our results suggest that EMRIs can in principle probe extremely strong near-zone magnetic fields, whereas ordinary magnetic environments around massive black holes are likely too weak to produce detectable effects within the present approximation.

The entropy of dynamical black holes deviating from electrovacuum in second order

We study the entropy of dynamical black holes in Einstein--Maxwell theory. Starting from a stationary electrovacuum background with a bifurcate Killing horizon, the apparent horizon is constructed perturbatively in Gaussian null coordinates, and the area of its cross section is derived to second order. Within the covariant phase space formalism, we introduce a modified canonical energy that incorporates contributions from external matter and is naturally related to the second-order variation of the entropy through the balance law. Under the null energy condition and the asymptotic stationary condition, the entropy is proportional to the area of the apparent horizon up to second-order and satisfies the second law. Without the null energy condition, establishing this area law requires additional assumptions.
