Optical properties of Kerr-Newman spacetime in the presence of plasma

We have studied the null geodesics in the background of the Kerr-Newman black hole veiled by a plasma medium using the Hamilton-Jacobi method. The in uence of black hole's charge and plasma parameters on the effective potential and the generic photon orbits has been investigated. Furthermore, our discussion embodies the effects of black hole's charge, plasma and the inclination angle on the shadow cast by the gravity with and without the spin parameter. We examined the energy released from the black hole as a result of the thermal radiations, which exclusively depends on the size of the shadow. The angle of de ection of the massless particles is also explored considering a weak-field approximation.We present our results in juxtaposition to the analogous black holes in General Relativity, particularly the Schwarzschild and Kerr black hole.

Retrolensing by a spherically symmetric naked singularity

Considering a strong field limit, we investigate the retrolensing phenomenon in the vicinity of a Janis-Newman-Winicour (JNW) naked singularity embedded in a scalar field. We assume that the light rays from a nearby source are reflected by the photon sphere of the naked singularity, acting as a lens, to create a pair of images. The analytic expressions of the lensing coefficients $\bar{a}$ and $\bar{b}$ are obtained, which are scalar dependent and discordant with \cite{Bozza:2002b}. Moreover, considering the powerful supermassive black hole candidates Sgr A* and M87*, we examined the influence of the scalar field on the apparent brightness and angular positions of the parity images. Our results are highlighted in correspondence with a non-scalar field gravity, specifically the Schwarzschild gravity. We have found that the brightness increases in the presence of the scalar field, while, the lensing coefficients $\bar{a}$, $\bar{b}$, the angular positions and the angular separation of the relativistic images experience a reverse effect.

Gravitational lensing in 4-D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity in the presence of plasma

In this paper we have assumed a weak-field regime to explore the gravitational lensed photons in a 4 dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity, which is very much in the limelight these days. The investigation is conducted in three distinct paradigms: uniform plasma, singular isothermal sphere and a non-singular isothermal sphere. The lensing angle associated with the distribution factor of the medium is individually derived for each case and further utilized to study the magnification of the image source brightness, selectively for the uniform plasma and singular isothermal sphere. The attained results are brought forth in contrast with the standard Schwarzschild geometry
