Effect of nonlinear electrodynamics on polarization distribution around black hole

We have investigated the polarized images of synchrotron emission from magnetically charged, spherically symmetric regular Bronnikov black hole (in general relativity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics) and the singular Reissner-Nordström black hole (in general relativity coupled to Maxwell electrodynamics). By taking into account the fact that within the framework of nonlinear electrodynamics, the propagation of the light ray is governed not by the null geodesics of the original spacetime, but rather by the null geodesics associated with the effective metric, we have examined synchrotron radiation characteristics near these black holes at different inclination angles. Our calculations reveal that intensity differences between these two black holes are significant, especially at high values of magnetic charges and large tilt angles. Polarization quantities, such as the electric vector polarization angle ($Δ$EVPA) and normalized intensity difference ($ΔI/I$) show similar trends, driven by lensing, Doppler effects, and redshift, offering insights into black hole metrics.

Tidal forces in parametrized spacetime: Rezzolla-Zhidenko parametrization

We investigate the tidal forces exerted by a spherically symmetric static parametrized black hole. Our analysis reveals that the radial and angular components of the tidal forces exerted by the black hole can exhibit both positive and negative values near the black hole, depending on matters of the spacetime parameters. Unlike the scenario with the Schwarzschild black hole, where the radial tidal force (angular tidal force) is always stretching (compressing) and becomes infinite at the center of the spacetime, the parametrized black hole allows for finite and compressing (stretching) forces within the event horizon. Additionally, we derive the geodesic deviation equations for a particle in free fall and proceed to solve them through numerical methods. Our analysis demonstrates that the spacetime parameters $ε$ and $a_1$ exhibit contrasting influences on the magnitudes of the physical quantities associated with tidal effects.

Can electromagnetic charge inhabit in Rastall gravity?

One of the eminent generalizations of theory of general relativity is the Rastall gravity which was {constructed} based on the assumption of the non-conserved energy-momentum tensor of the matter field. Despite in the literature several solutions of black holes in the Rastall gravity coupled to the electromagnetic field have been presented, in the current paper we argue that the Rastall gravity with non-conserved energy-momentum tensor (with $λ\neq0$ and $R\neq0$) cannot couple to the electrodynamics, i.e., the electromagnetically charged black hole solution cannot be obtained in this case. This statement is adequate for both linear and nonlinear electrodynamics with the electric, magnetic, or dyonic charges coupled to the Rastall gravity.

The connection between regular black holes in nonlinear electrodynamics and semi-classical dust collapse

There exist a correspondence between black holes in non linear electrodynamics (NLED) and gravitational collapse of homogeneous dust with semi-classical corrections in the strong curvature regime that to our knowledge has not been noticed until now. We discuss the nature of such correspondence and explore what insights may be gained from considering black holes in NLED in the context of semi-classical dust collapse and vice-versa.

Can a light ray distinguish charge of a black hole in nonlinear electrodynamics?

It is a well-known fact that light rays do not follow the null geodesics of the space-time in nonlinear electrodynamics; instead, they follow the null geodesics of the so-called effective space-time. Taking this into account, in this paper, we aim to discuss the possibility of distinguishing the type of charge with which the black hole is endowed, via the motion of light rays. The results show that, for any black hole being a charged solution of the field equations of general relativity coupled to the nonlinear electrodynamics, one cannot distinguish the two types of charge (magnetic or electric) through the motion of light rays around it.

Motion of spinning particles in non asymptotically flat spacetimes

The assumption of asymptotic flatness for isolated astrophysical bodies may be considered an approximation when one considers a cosmological context where a cosmological constant or vacuum energy is present. In this framework we study the motion of spinning particles in static, spherically symmetric and asymptotically non-flat spacetimes with repulsive cosmological vacuum energy and quintessential field. Due to the combined effects of gravitational attraction and cosmological repulsion, the region where stable circular orbits are allowed is restricted by an innermost and an outermost stable circular orbits. We show that taking into account the spin of test particles may enlarge or shrink the region of allowed stable circular orbits depending on whether the spin is co-rotating or counter-rotating with the angular momentum of the particles.

Dust collapse in 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity

We consider gravitational collapse in the recently proposed 4D limit of Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We show that for collapse of a sphere made of homogeneous dust the process is qualitatively similar to the case of pure Einstein's gravity. The singularity forms as the endstate of collapse and it is trapped behind the horizon at all times. However, and differently from Einstein's theory, as a consequence of the Gauss-Bonnet term, the collapsing cloud reaches the singularity with zero velocity, and the time of formation of the singularity is delayed with respect to the pure Einstein case.

Spinning test particles in the $γ$ spacetime

We consider the motion of spinning particles in the field of a well known vacuum static axially-symmetric spacetime, known as $γ$ metric, that can be interpreted as a generalization of the Schwarzschild manifold to include prolate or oblate deformations. We derive the equations of motion for spinning test particles by using the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon equations together with the Tulczyjew spin-supplementary condition, and restricting the motion to the equatorial plane. We determine the limit imposed by super-luminal velocity for the spin of the particle located at the innermost stable circular orbits (ISCO). We show that the particles on ISCO of the prolate $γ$ spacetime are allowed to have nigher spin than the corresponding ones in the the oblate case. We determine the value of the ISCO radius depending on the signature of the spin-angular momentum, ${\rm s-L}$ relation, and show that the value of the ISCO with respect to the non spinning case is bigger for ${\rm sL}<0$ and smaller for ${\rm sL}>0$. The results may be relevant for determining the properties of accretion disks and constraining the allowed values of quadrupole moments of astrophysical black hole candidates.

Quasinormal modes of magnetized black hole

We investigate charged, massive scalar field around static, spherically symmetric black hole immersed into an external asymptotically uniform magnetic field $B$. It is shown that for given multipole number $\ell$ there are $2\ell+1$ numbers of modes due to the Zeeman effect appearing by an interaction of the external magnetic and charged scalar fields introducing an effective mass of the scalar field $μ_{\rm eff}=\sqrt{μ^2-mqB}$ where $m$ is the azimuthal number and $q$ is the charge coupling constant. We calculate threshold value of effective mass in which quasinormal modes are arbitrarily long lived and beyond that value quasinormal modes vanish. In the case of $m qB<0$ quasinormal modes are longer lived with larger oscillation frequencies. Whenever, magnetic and massive scalar fields satisfies condition $μ_{\rm eff}^2<0$, an instability appears, i.e., if $qB>0$ or $qB<0$ there is an instability for the values of azimuthal number $m>μ^2/qB$ or $m<μ^2/qB$, respectively.

Harmonic oscillations of neutral particles in the $γ$-metric

We consider a well-known static, axially symmetric, vacuum solution of Einstein equations belonging to Weyl's class and determine the fundamental frequencies of small harmonic oscillations of test particles around stable circular orbits in the equatorial plane. We discuss the radial profiles of frequencies of the radial, latitudinal (vertical), and azimuthal (Keplerian) harmonic oscillations relative to the comoving and distant observers and compare with the corresponding ones in the Schwarzschild and Kerr geometries. We show that there exist latitudinal and radial frequencies of harmonic oscillations of particles moving along the circular orbits for which it is impossible to determine whether the central gravitating object is described by the slowly rotating Kerr solution or by a slightly deformed static space-time.

Relaxations of perturbations of spacetimes in general relativity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics

Three well known exact regular solutions of general relativity (GR) coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics (NED), namely the Maxwellian, Bardeen and Hayward regular spacetimes, which can describe either a regular black hole or a geometry without horizons, have been considered. Relaxation times for the scalar, electromagnetic (EM) and gravitational perturbations of black holes (BHs) and no-horizon spacetimes have been estimated in comparison with the ones of the Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordström (RN) spacetimes. It has been shown that the considered geometries in GR coupled to the NED have never vanishing circular photon orbits and on account of this fact these spacetimes always oscillate the EM perturbations with quasinormal frequencies (QNFs). Moreover we have shown that the EM perturbations in the eikonal regime can be a powerful tool to confirm that (i) the light rays do not follow null geodesics in the NED by the relaxation rates; (ii) if the underlying solution has a correct weak field limit to the Maxwell electrodynamics (LED) by the angular velocity of the circular photon orbit.

Electromagnetic perturbations of black holes in general relativity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics: Polar perturbations

The \textit{axial} electromagnetic (EM) perturbations of the black hole (BH) solutions in general relativity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics (NED) were studied for both electrically and magnetically charged BHs, assuming that the EM perturbations do not alter the spacetime geometry in our preceding paper [Phys. Rev. D 97, 084058 (2018)]. Here, as a continuation of that work, the formalism for the \textit{polar} EM perturbations of the BHs in general relativity coupled to the NED is presented. We show that the quasinormal modes (QNMs) spectra of polar EM perturbations of the electrically and magnetically charged BHs in the NED are not isospectral, contrary to the case of the standard Reissner-Nordström BHs in the classical linear electrodynamics. It is shown by the detailed study of QNMs properties in the eikonal approximation that the EM perturbations can be a powerful tool to confirm that in the NED light ray does not follow the null geodesics of the spacetime. By specifying the NED model and comparing axial and polar EM perturbations of the electrically and magnetically charged BHs, it is shown that QNM spectra of the axial EM perturbations of magnetically (electrically) charged BH and polar EM perturbations of the electrically (magnetically) charged BH are isospectral, i.e., $ω_{mag}^{ax}\approxω_{el}^{pol}$ ($ω_{mag}^{pol}\approxω_{el}^{ax}$).

Comment on "Construction of regular black holes in general relativity"

We claim that the physical parameters of the constructed black hole solutions in general relativity (GR) coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics (NED) by Zhong-Ying Fan and Xiaobao Wang in the Paper [Phys. Rev. D 94, 124027 (2016)] are misinterpreted, despite the formalism being correct. We argue that because of these misinterpretations, the derived black hole solutions and the Lagrangian densities presented in that paper are slightly inconsistent. In this comment, we present complete black hole solutions of the given Lagrangian densities which correct the interpretation of the physical parameters of the constructed black hole solutions and lead to the correct treatment and weak field limits of the physical parameters of the constructed solutions.

Electromagnetic perturbations of black holes in general relativity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics

The electromagnetic (EM) perturbations of the black hole solutions in general relativity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics (NED) are studied for both electrically and magnetically charged black holes, assuming that the EM perturbations do not alter the spacetime geometry. It is shown that the effective potentials of the electrically and magnetically charged black holes related to test perturbative NED EM fields are related to the effective metric governing the photon motion, contrary to the effective potential of the linear electrodynamic (Maxwell) field that is related to the spacetime metric. Consequently, corresponding quasinormal (QN) frequencies differ as well. As a special case, we study new family of the NED black hole solutions which tend in the weak field limit to the Maxwell field, giving the Reissner-Nordström (RN) black hole solution. We compare the NED Maxwellian black hole QN spectra with the RN black hole QN spectra.

Note on the character of the generic rotating charged regular black holes in general relativity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics

We demonstrate that the generic charged rotating regular black hole solutions of general relativity coupled to non-linear electrodynamics, obtained by using the alternate Newman-Janis algorithm, introduces only small (on level $10^{-2}$) inconsistency in the behaviour of the electrodynamics Lagrangian. This approves application of these analytic and simple solutions as astrophysically relevant, sufficiently precise approximate solutions describing rotating regular black holes.

Scalar perturbations of nonsingular nonrotating black holes in conformal gravity

We study scalar and electromagnetic perturbations of a family of nonsingular nonrotating black hole spacetimes that are solutions in a large class of conformally invariant theories of gravity. The effective potential for scalar perturbations depends on the exact form of the scaling factor. Electromagnetic perturbations do not feel the scaling factor, and the corresponding quasinormal mode spectrum is the same as in the Schwarzschild metric. We find that these black hole metrics are stable under scalar and electromagnetic perturbations. Assuming that the quasinormal mode spectrum for scalar perturbations is not too different from that for gravitational perturbations, we can expect that the calculation of the quasinormal mode spectrum and the observation with gravitational wave detectors of quasinormal modes from astrophysical black holes can constrain the scaling factor and test these solutions.

Energy conditions of non-singular black hole spacetimes in conformal gravity

Conformal gravity can elegantly solve the problem of spacetime singularities present in Einstein's gravity. For every physical spacetime, there is an infinite family of conformally-equivalent singularity-free metrics. In the unbroken phase, every non-singular metric is equivalent and can be used to infer the physical properties of the spacetime. In the broken phase, a Higgs-like mechanism should select a certain vacuum, which thus becomes the physical one. However, in the absence of the complete theoretical framework we do not know how to select the right vacuum. In this paper, we study the energy conditions of non-singular black hole spacetimes obtained in conformal gravity assuming they are solutions of Einstein's gravity with an effective energy-momentum tensor. We check whether such conditions can be helpful to select the vacuum of the broken phase.

Slowly decaying resonances of massive scalar fields around Schwarzschild-de Sitter black holes

We study in special limiting cases quasinormal modes of massive scalar fields in the Schwarzschild-de Sitter black hole backgrounds. We determine the lower limit on the mass parameter of the scalar field that allows the waves with quasinormal frequencies to propagate to infinity, showing that it depends on the spacetime parameters only. Then we discuss in the large multipole number limit quasinormal modes, whose frequencies can be directly related to the unstable circular photon geodesics. In the large scalar mass approximation, we demonstrate the new interesting phenomenon of slowly decaying resonances, that are strongly related to the maximum of the effective potential of the massive scalar field, which is located at the static radius of the Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetimes, where the cosmic repulsion is just balanced by the black hole attraction.
