Abstract

We study the wave properties of a cold isothermal plasma in the vicinity of a Schwarzschild black-hole event horizon. The Fourier-analyzed perturbed 3+1 general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics equations are examined such that the complex dispersion relations are obtained for nonrotating, rotating nonmagnetized, and rotating magnetized backgrounds. The propagation and attenuation vectors along with the refractive index are obtained (shown graphically) to study the dispersive properties of the medium near the event horizon. The results show that no information can be obtained from the Schwarzschild magnetosphere. Further, the pressure stops the existence of normal dispersion of waves.PACS Nos.: 95.30.Sf, 95.30.Qd, 04.30.Nk
