Dynamical evolution of a vector field perturbation coupling to Einstein tensor

We have investigated the wave dynamics of a vector field perturbation coupling to Einstein tensor in the four-dimensional Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m black hole spacetime. Our results show that besides the dependence on the coupling between the vector field and Einstein tensor, the wave dynamic equation of the vector field perturbation strongly depends on the parity of the perturbation itself, which is quite different from that of the usual vector field perturbation without the coupling in the four-dimensional spacetime. Moreover, we also find that the vector field perturbation with odd parity grows with exponential rate if the coupling strength is stronger than certain a critical value. However, the vector field perturbation with even parity always decays in the Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m black hole spacetime.Comment: 19 pages; 10 figures.

Rotating charged black hole with Weyl corrections

We present firstly a four-dimensional spherical symmetric black hole with small Weyl corrections and find that with increasing Weyl corrections the region of the event horizon existence for the black hole in the parameter space increases for the negative Weyl coupling parameter and decreases for the positive one. Moreover, we also obtain a rotating charged black hole with weak Weyl corrections by the method of complex coordinate transformation. Our results show that the sign of Weyl coupling parameter $\alpha$ yields the different spatial topology of the event horizons for the black hole with its parameters lied in some special regions in the parameter space. We also analyze the dependence of the ergosphere on the Weyl coupling parameter $\alpha$ and find that with the increase of the Weyl corrections the ergosphere in the equatorial plane becomes thick for a black hole with $\alpha>0$, but becomes thin in the case with $\alpha<0$, which means that the energy extraction become easier in the background of a black hole with the positive Weyl coupling parameter, but more difficult in the background of a black hole with the negative one.Comment: 16 pages, 9 figures, corrected version accepted by Phys.

Strong gravitational lensing for the photons coupled to Weyl tensor in a Schwarzschild black hole spacetime

We have investigated the strong gravitational lensing for the photons coupled to Weyl tensor in a Schwarzschild black hole spacetime. We find that in the four-dimensional black hole spacetime the equation of motion of the photons depends not only on the coupling between photon and Weyl tensor, but also on the polarization direction of the photons. It is quite different from that in the case of the usual photon without coupling to Weyl tensor in which the equation of motion is independent of the polarization of the photon. Moreover, we find that the coupling and the polarization direction modify the properties of the photon sphere, the deflection angle, the coefficients in strong field lensing, and the observational gravitational lensing variables. Combining with the supermassive central object in our Galaxy, we estimated three observables in the strong gravitational lensing for the photons coupled to Weyl tensor.Comment: 19 pages and 7 figures; A corrected version for publication in JCA

Asymptotic quasinormal modes of a coupled scalar field in the Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger dilaton spacetime

The analytic forms of the asymptotic quasinormal frequencies of a coupled scalar field in the Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger dilaton spacetime is investigated by using the monodromy technique proposed by Motl and Neitzke. It is found that the asymptotic quasinormal frequencies depend not only on the structure parameters of the background spacetime, but also on the coupling between the scalar fields and gravitational field. Moreover, our results show that only in the minimal couple case, i.e., $\xi$ tends zero, the real parts of the asymptotic quasinormal frequencies agrees with the Hod's conjecture, $T_H\ln{3}$.Comment: 6 pages, 1 figur

Dark energy interacting with dark matter and unparticle

We study dynamical behaviors of the dark energy models interacting with dark matter and unparticle in the standard flat FRW cosmology. We considered four different interacting models and examined the stability of the critical points. We find that there exist late-time scaling attractors corresponding to an accelerating Universe and the alleviation of the coincidence problem depends on the choice of parameters in the models.Comment: 16 pages, 7 figure

Gravitational field of a slowly rotating black hole with phantom global monopole

We present a slowly rotating black hole with phantom global monopole by solving Einstein's field equation and find that presence of global monopole changes the structure of black hole. The metric coefficient $g_{t\phi}$ contains hypergeometric function of the polar coordinate $r$, which is more complex than that in the usual slowly rotating black hole. The energy scale of symmetry breaking $\eta$ affects the black hole horizon and a deficit solid angle. Especially, the solid angle is surplus rather than deficit for a black hole with the phantom global monopole. We also study the correction originating from the global monopole to the angular velocity of the horizon $\Omega_H$, the Kepler's third law, the innermost stable circular orbit and the radiative efficiency $\epsilon$ in the thin accretion disk model. Our results also show that for the phantom black hole the radiative efficiency $\epsilon$ is positive only for the case $\eta\leq \eta_c$. The threshold value $\eta_c$ increases with the rotation parameter $a$.Comment: 14 pages, 6 figure

Shadow casted by a Konoplya-Zhidenko rotating non-Kerr black hole

We have investigated the shadow of a Konoplya-Zhidenko rotating non-Kerr black hole with an extra deformation parameter. The spacetime structure arising from the deformed parameter affects sharply the black hole shadow. With the increase of the deformation parameter, the size of the shadow of black hole increase and its shape becomes more rounded for arbitrary rotation parameter. The D-shape shadow of black hole emerges only in the case $a<\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3}M$ with the proper deformation parameter. Especially, the black hole shadow possesses a cusp shape with small eye lashes in the cases with $a>M$, and the shadow becomes less cuspidal with the increase of the deformation parameter. Our result show that the presence of the deformation parameter yields a series of significant patterns for the shadow casted by a Konoplya-Zhidenko rotating non-Kerr black hole.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figures, some typos are corrected and some references adde

Chaotic motion of particles in the accelerating and rotating black holes spacetime

We have investigated the motion of timelike particles along geodesic in the background of accelerating and rotating black hole spacetime. We confirmed that the chaos exists in the geodesic motion of the particles by Poincar\'e sections, the power spectrum, the fast Lyapunov exponent indicator and the bifurcation diagram. Moreover, we probe the effects of the acceleration and rotation parameters on the chaotic behavior of a timelike geodesic particle in the black hole spacetime. Our results show that the acceleration brings richer physics for the geodesic motion of particles.Comment: 20 pages, 12 figures, Accepted by JHEP for publicatio

Analytical expressions for greybody factor and dynamic evolution for scalar field in Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz black hole

We investigate the propagation and evolution for a massless scalar field in the background of $\lambda=1/2$ Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz black hole with the condition of detailed balance. We fortunately obtain an exact solution for the Klein-Gordon equation. Then, we find an analytical expression for the greybody factor which is valid for any frequency; and also exactly show that the perturbation decays without any oscillation. All of these can help us to understand more about the Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figures, Accepted for publication in PR

Repulsive effect for the unbound high energy particles along the rotation axis in the Kerr-Taub-NUT spacetime

We have investigated the acceleration of the unbound high energy particles moving along the rotation axis in the Kerr-Taub-NUT spacetime, and then study the dependence of the repulsive effects on the NUT charge for the particles in the spacetime. Whether the repulsive effects with the NUT charge become stronger depends on the Carter constant, the position and velocity of the particles themselves. We also present numerically the changes of the observable velocity and acceleration with the NUT charge for the unbound particles in the Kerr-Taub-NUT spacetime.Comment: 15 pages, 4 figure
