Optical Signatures of Einstein-Euler-Heisenberg AdS/dS Black Holes in the light of Event Horizon Telescope

Recent observations of the supermassive black holes $ M87^{*} $ and Sgr A$^{*}$ by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) have sparked intensified interest in studying the optical appearance of black holes (BHs). Inspired by this, we carry out a study on the optical features of Einstein-Euler-Heisenberg-Anti de Sitter/de Sitter (EEH-AdS/dS) BHs, including the trajectories of photons, shadow geometrical shape, energy emission rate, and deflection of light in this spacetime. Since, due to the nonlinear electrodynamics effects, photons propagate along null geodesics in an effective metric rather than the background metric, we first derive the effective metric of the EEH-AdS/dS BH. Then we study the null geodesics of the resulting effective metric and eventually compute the size of the EEH-AdS/dS BH shadow. To validate our results, we confront our results with the extracted information from EHT data of the supermassive BHs $ M87^{*} $ and estimate lower bounds for the shadow radius.

A Study of Black Holes in $F(R)-$ModMax Gravity: Gravitational Lensing and Constraints from EHT Observations

The study of astrophysical phenomena like black hole shadows is an effective approach to properly understand the modified gravity and explore its validity. Motivated by recent astrophysical observations, we consider a black hole (BH) in $F(R)-$ModMax gravity and study the optical features such as the shadow's geometrical shape, energy emission rate, and deflection of light. More specifically, we show how the variation of the model parameters imprints specific signatures on these optical quantities. In the following, we consider such black holes as supermassive BHs and evaluate the parameters of the model with shadow size estimates done by the observations of M87* from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT). According to our findings, the parameter $f_{R_{0}}$ plays an effective role in having results consistent with the EHT data such that the resulting shadow of AdS black holes in $F(R)-$ModMax gravity agrees with the observational data for $f_{R_{0}}<-1$. However, for dS black holes, a consistent result is observed for $f_{R_{0}}>-1$.
