Abstract
We investigate the strong gravitational lensing of spherically symmetric black holes in the novel Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet (EGB) gravity surrounded by unmagnetized plasma medium. The deflection angle in the strong deflection limit in EGB spacetime with homogeneous plasma is derived. We find that both the coupling constant [Formula: see text] in the novel EGB gravity and the presence of plasma can affect the radius of photon sphere, strong field limit coefficient and other lensing observables significantly, while plasma has little effect on the angular image separation and the relative magnifications as [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], respectively.
