In this paper we construct a black hole solution surrounded by superfluid dark matter and baryonic matter, and study their effects on the shadow images of the Sgr A ∗ black hole. To achieve this goal, we have considered two density profiles for the baryonic matter described by the spherical exponential profile and the power law profile including a special case describing a totally dominated dark matter galaxy. Using the present values for the parameters of the superfluid dark matter and baryonic density profiles for the Sgr A ∗ black hole, we find that the effects of the superfluid dark matter and baryonic matter on the size of shadows are almost negligible compared to the Kerr vacuum black hole. In addition, we find that by increasing the baryonic mass the shadow size increases considerably. This result can be linked to the matter distribution in the galaxy, namely the baryonic matter is mostly located in the galactic center and, therefore, increasing the baryonic matter can affect the size of black hole shadow compared to the totally dominated dark matter galaxy where we observe an increase of the angular diameter of the Sgr A ∗ black hole of the magnitude 10 - 5 μ arcsec.

In this paper, we investigate the effect of the Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP) in the Casimir wormhole spacetime recently proposed by Garattini (Eur Phys J C 79: 951, 2019 ). In particular, we consider three types of GUP relations, firstly the Kempf, Mangano and Mann (KMM) model, secondly the Detournay, Gabriel and Spindel (DGS) model, and finally the so-called type II model for the GUP principle. To this end, we consider three specific models of the redshift function along with two different equations of state (EoS), given by P r ( r ) = ω r ( r ) ρ ( r ) and P t ( r ) = ω t ( r ) P r ( r ) and obtain a class of asymptotically flat wormhole solutions supported by Casimir energy under the effect of GUP. Furthermore we check the null, weak, and strong condition at the wormhole throat with a radius r 0 , and we show that in general the classical energy conditions are violated by some arbitrary quantity at the wormhole throat. Importantly, we examine the wormhole geometry with semiclassical corrections via embedding diagrams. We also consider the ADM mass of the wormhole, the volume-integral quantifier to calculate the amount of the exotic matter near the wormhole throat, and the deflection angle of light.

In this paper, we test the weak cosmic censorship conjecture (WCCC) for the Reissner–Nordström–de Sitter (RN-dS) black hole surrounded by perfect fluid dark matter. We consider a spherically symmetric perturbation on deriving linear and non-linear order perturbation inequalities by applying a new version of gedanken experiments well accepted from the work of Sorce and Wald. Contrary to the well-known result that the Reissner–Nordström (RN) black hole could be overcharged under linear order particle accretion it is hereby shown that the same black hole in perfect fluid dark matter with cosmological parameter cannot be overcharged. Considering a realistic scenario in which black holes cannot be considered to be in vacuum we investigate the contribution of dark matter and cosmological constant in the overcharging process of an electrically charged black hole. We demonstrate that the black hole can be overcharged only when two fields induced by dark matter and cosmological parameter are completely balanced. Further we present a remarkable result that a black hole cannot be overcharged beyond a certain threshold limit for which the effect arising from the cosmological constant dominates over the effect by the perfect fluid dark matter. Thus even for a linear accretion process, the black hole cannot always be overcharged and hence obeys the WCCC in general. This result would continue to be fulfilled for non-linear order accretion.

In this paper, we investigate circular orbits for test particles around the Schwarzschild–de Sitter (dS) black hole surrounded by perfect fluid dark matter. We determine the region of circular orbits bounded by innermost and outermost stable circular orbits. We show that the impact of the perfect fluid dark matter shrinks the region where circular orbits can exist as the values of both innermost and outermost stable circular orbits decrease. We find that for specific lower and upper values of the dark matter parameter there exist double matching values for inner and outermost stable circular orbits. It turns out that the gravitational attraction due to the dark matter contribution dominates over cosmological repulsion. This gives rise to a remarkable result in the Schwarzschild–de Sitter black hole surrounded by dark matter field in contrast to the Schwarzschild–de Sitter metric. Finally, we study epicyclic motion and its frequencies with their applications to twin peak quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) for various models. We find the corresponding values of the black hole parameters which could best fit and explain the observed twin peak QPO object GRS 1915+109 from microquasars.

In the classical relativistic regime, the accretion of phantom energy onto a black hole reduces the mass of the black hole. In this context, we have investigated the evolution of a Schwarzschild black hole in the standard model of cosmology using the phantom-like modified variable Chaplygin gas and the viscous generalized Chaplygin gas. The corresponding expressions for accretion time scale and evolution of mass have been derived. Our results indicate that the mass of the black hole will decrease if the accreting phantom Chaplygin gas violates the dominant energy condition and will increase in the opposite case. Thus, our results are in agreement with the results of Babichev et al. who first proposed this scenario.

We study the dynamics of test particles around a magnetized Ernst black hole considering its magnetic field in the environment surrounding the black hole. We show how its magnetic field can influence the dynamics of particles and epicyclic motion around the black hole. Based on the analysis, we find that the radius of the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) for both neutral and charged test particles and epicyclic frequencies are strongly affected by the influence of the magnetic field. We also show that the ISCO radius of charged particles decreases rapidly. It turns out that the gravitational and Lorentz forces of the magnetic field are combined, thus strongly shrinking the values of the ISCO of charged test particles. Finally, we obtain the generic form for the epicyclic frequencies and select three microquasars with known astrophysical quasiperiodic oscillation (QPO) data to constrain the magnetic field. We show that the magnetic field is of the order of magnitude B∼10-7 Gauss, taking into account the motion of neutral particles in circular orbit about the black hole.

Naked singularities are hypothetical astrophysical entities featuring gravitational singularities without event horizons. In this study, we analyze the shadow properties of Kerr modified gravity (Kerr MOG) naked singularities (KMNSs). We show that the KMNS shadow can appear closed or open, or can even vanish, depending on the dimensionless spin parameter a , the modified gravity parameter α , and the observer’s inclination angle. We identify the critical conditions under which the KMNS shadow develops a gap, a unique feature not present in black hole (BH) shadows. We analyze the properties of a thin accretion disk surrounding a KMNS within the framework of MOG characterized by the parameter α . The study includes a detailed examination of the spacetime geometry and the equations of motion for test particles. In addition, we adopt a simplified model for the disk’s radiative flux, temperature distribution, and spectral luminosity. Our analysis primarily focuses on the flux distribution of the accretion disk around the KMNS with identical mass but varying spin and MOG deformation parameters. This allows us to explore how modifications in rotation and the MOG parameter α influence the radiative properties of the disk. Further, these observational signatures may serve as effective tools for clearly distinguishing KMNSs from standard Kerr naked singularities (KNSs), where the MOG parameter α = 0 .

In this paper, we study the thermodynamic features of a rotating black hole surrounded by perfect fluid dark matter. We analyze the critical behavior of the black hole by considering the known relationship between pressure and cosmological constant. We show that the black hole admits a first order phase transition and, both rotation and perfect fluid dark matter parameters have a significant impact on the critical quantities. We also introduce a new ad hoc pressure related to the perfect fluid dark matter and find a first order van der Waals like phase transition. In addition, using the sixth order WKB method, we investigate the massless scalar quasinormal modes (QNMs) for the static spherically symmetric black hole surrounded by dark matter. Using the finite difference scheme, the dynamical evolution of the QNMs is also discussed for different values of angular momentum and overtone parameters.

The dynamics of a charged particle moving around a slowly rotating Kerr black hole in the presence of an external magnetic field is investigated. We are interested in exploring the conditions under which the charged particle can escape from the gravitational field of the black hole after colliding with another particle. The escape velocity of the charged particle in the innermost stable circular orbit is calculated. The effective potential and escape velocity of the charged particle with angular momentum in the presence of the magnetic field is analyzed. This work serves as an extension of a preceding paper dealing with the Schwarzschild black hole (Zahrani et al., Phys Rev D 87:084043, 2013 ).

In this paper, we explore the cosmological implications of interacting dark energy model in a torsion-based gravity namely f ( T ). Assuming that dark energy interacts with dark matter and radiation components, we examine the stability of this model by choosing different forms of interaction terms. We consider three different forms of dark energy: cosmological constant, quintessence and phantom energy. We then obtain several attractor solutions for each dark energy model interacting with the other components. This model successfully explains the coincidence problem via the interacting dark energy scenario.
