Accretion around cloud of strings in 4D Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet black hole

Abstract

In this paper, we study the accretion process of a charged black hole in the background of cloud of strings in the framework of 4D Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet (EGB) gravity theory. Firstly, the steady spherical accretion process of ideal fluid on 4D cloud of strings EGB black hole is studied from the aspects of the radial velocity, the energy density, the mass accretion rate and the sound speed. Then, the general analytical expressions of the accretion process are determined, and the effects of the black hole parameters on the radial velocity, the energy density, the mass accretion rate and the sound velocity are discussed. When the GB coupling constant increases, the energy density and mass accretion rate increase, and the sound velocity and radial speed decrease. EGB gravity and charge have similar physical effects on the accretion process of black hole.
