Relativistic fermions and vector bosons in magnetized three-dimensional space-time with a cosmological constant

In this manuscript, we study the relativistic dynamics of fermions and vector bosons within a (2+1)-dimensional magnetized space-time. We consider the Bonnor-Melvin magnetic space-time, characterized by a homogeneous magnetic field aligned along the symmetry axis and a non-zero cosmological constant. This space-time background, featuring cylindrical symmetry, retains the invariance of quantum field dynamics under Lorentz boosts along the z-direction. This enables us to explore (2+1)-dimensional realms, where the associated 2+1-dimensional spacetime background is recognized as the Bonnor-Melvin magnetic 2+1+0-brane solution within the framework of gravity coupled with nonlinear electrodynamics. We seek exact solutions for relativistic fermions and vector bosons within this space-time background. We have managed to derive the radial wave equations in both instances, securing precise eigenvalue solutions devoid of any approximations. Our findings extend seamlessly to massless fermions and vector bosons, ensuring generality. Moreover, we observe that the ground state energy of massless vector bosons (photons) within the examined space-time background is unequivocally zero.

Shadow of novel rotating black hole in GR coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics and constraints from EHT results

We study the optical properties of spacetime around a novel black hole in general relativity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics, which is asymptotically flat. First, we study the angular velocity and Lyapunov exponent in unstable photon circular orbits in the novel spherically symmetric black hole spacetime. Later, we obtain the rotating black hole solution using the Newman–Janis algorithm and determine the event horizon properties of the black hole. We analyze the effective potential for the circular motion of photons in the spacetime of the novel rotating black hole. Also, we analyze the photon sphere around the novel black hole and its shadow using celestial coordinates. We obtain that an increase of the black hole spin and charge as well as nonlinear electrodynamics field nonlinearity parameters causes an increase in the distortion parameter of the black hole shadow, while, the area of the shadow and its oblateness decrease. Moreover, we also obtain the constraint values for the black hole charge and the nonlinearity parameters using Event Horizon Telescope data from shadow sizes of supermassive black holes Sgr A* and M87*. Finally, the emission rate of black hole evaporation through Hawking radiation is also studied.

On thermal fluctuations and quantum regularities of F(R,G) gravity black holes with constant topological Euler density in nonlinear electrodynamics

We discuss the corrected thermodynamics and naked singularity structure of the topological static spherically symmetric solution in F(R,G) - gravity coupled with Born-Infeld—like nonlinear electrodynamics. Solutions admitting black holes with constant topological Euler density is analyzed in view of various thermodynamical variables. The inclusion of logarithmic correction to the entropy is extended to the other thermodynamical variables and the contribution of corrected variables are displayed on various plots. The stability of black hole under the effect of thermal variables is also studied. As a second scope of this study, solutions admitting timelike naked singularity are probed with bosonic and fermionic quantum wave packets to see if the singularity is quantum mechanically regular or not. In this context, the evolution of these probes remains well-defined if the corresponding spatial Hamiltonian operator is essentially self-adjoint. Our calculations reveal that when the singularity is probed with specific wave modes involving spin—0 and spin—1/2 quantum wave packets, the corresponding wave operators turn out to be essentially self-adjoint, which in turn implies unique well-defined time evolution.

Phase structures and critical behavior of rational non-linear electrodynamics Anti de Sitter black holes in Rastall gravity

This research paper presents a black hole solution with a rational nonlinear electrodynamics source within the Rastall gravity framework. The paper analyzes the thermodynamic properties of the solution in normal phase space and explores its critical behavior. The phase structure is examined using the extended first law of thermodynamics, with the cosmological constant Λ serving as pressure P. The isotherms exhibit van der Waals behavior at small values of horizon r +. The paper also investigates the Gibbs free energy behavior and finds two critical points with two pressures where the re-entrant phase transition occurs and disappears. We also explore the prevalent microstructure of black holes in Ruppeiner geometry, uncovering significant deviations in the nature of particle interactions from conventional practice. Moreover, the thermodynamic geometry is analyzed using the Ruppeiner formalism, with the normalized Ricci scalar indicating possible point-phase transitions of the heat capacity, and the normalized extrinsic curvature having the same sign as the normalized Ricci scalar. The three-phase transitions of the heat capacity are those that we find for the normalized Ruppeiner curvatures. Thus, there is an absolute correspondence.

Magnetic Black Hole Thermodynamics in an Extended Phase Space with Nonlinear Electrodynamics.

We study Einstein's gravity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics with two parameters in anti-de Sitter spacetime. Magnetically charged black holes in an extended phase space are investigated. We obtain the mass and metric functions and the asymptotic and corrections to the Reissner-Nordström metric function when the cosmological constant vanishes. The first law of black hole thermodynamics in an extended phase space is formulated and the magnetic potential and the thermodynamic conjugate to the coupling are obtained. We prove the generalized Smarr relation. The heat capacity and the Gibbs free energy are computed and the phase transitions are studied. It is shown that the electric fields of charged objects at the origin and the electrostatic self-energy are finite within the nonlinear electrodynamics proposed.

Nonlinear problems inspired by the Born–Infeld theory of electrodynamics

Abstract It is shown that nonlinear electrodynamics of the Born–Infeld theory type may be exploited to shed insight into a few fundamental problems in theoretical physics, including rendering electromagnetic asymmetry to energetically exclude magnetic monopoles, achieving finite electromagnetic energy to relegate curvature singularities of charged black holes, and providing theoretical interpretation of equations of state of cosmic fluids via k-essence cosmology. Also discussed are some nonlinear differential equation problems.

Inflation Driven by Nonlinear Electrodynamics in Anisotropic Spacetime

The well-known Big Bang theory has explained how the universe came into being. This extraordinary event caused the later universe to be accelerated by a scale factor a(t). However, standard Big Bang theory has had some problems that can’t be explained, such as monopoles, horizons, and flatness. To solve this problem, a model of inflation in the early universe is required. Recent studies show that nonlinear electrodynamics coupled with general relativity can describe the inflation of the universe. In this work, we consider a model of nonlinear electrodynamics in anisotropic spacetime. We derive the dynamical equation from Einstein’s field equation and the law of conservation of energy-momentum tensor. Then, we use the perturbation method to solve the dynamical equation of the universe and obtain the evolution of the non-singular scale factor with anisotropy parameter ϵ. Using a phase-space analysis of the inflationary model, we obtain a phase portrait in the presence of fixed points. Our result shows that in the model of nonlinear electrodynamics coupled to gravity in anisotropic spacetime, the universe can undergo an inflationary mechanism if ϵ < 1. We also show the absence of singularity in density and pressure using this model.

Primary superconductivity in regular rotating electrically charged compact objects

In this paper, we refer to the early hypotheses on superconductivity in the models of the electron as an extended particle, and show how Nonlinear Electrodynamics minimally coupled to Gravity (NED-GR) predicts, without additional assumptions, the existence of primary superconductivity as the universal property of regular electrically charged rotating black holes and electromagnetic spinning solitons, replacing naked singularities and including that with the parameters of the electron. NED-GR dynamical equations describe basic generic properties of these objects in a self-consistent and the model-independent way, and establish the existence of the superconducting ring current in their deep interiors, which presents the non-dissipative source of the electromagnetic field of an object and provides its practically unlimited life time.

Universe inflation and nonlinear electrodynamics

We analyse the inflation of the universe when the source of gravity is electromagnetic fields obeying nonlinear electrodynamics, with two parameters and without singularities. The cosmology of the universe with stochastic magnetic fields is considered, and the condition for universe inflation is obtained. It is demonstrated that singularities of energy density and pressure are absent as the scale factor approaches zero. When the scale factor goes to infinity, we have the equation of state for the ultra-relativistic case. The curvature invariants do not possess singularities. The evolution of the universe shows that at large time scales, the scale factor corresponds to the radiation era. The duration of universe inflation is also analysed. We study the classical stability and causality by computing the speed of sound.

Particle Dynamics and Matter Accretion onto Non‐linear Charged AdS Black Holes in Massive Gravity

AbstractThis article investigates the dynamics of charged particles and accretion process around nonlinear charged AdS black holes (BHs). the impact of key factors such as angular momentum, specific energy, and magnetic field on the behavior of particles are focused. Firstly, the concept of the effective potential is examined, which provides insights into the forces acting on particles and the escape velocity they must overcome. The innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) is also discussed, which is the closest distance a particle can orbit a BH without being pulled in and explore the conditions for particle escape. Next, the energy efficiency and epicyclic frequency of test particles are studied, which measure the amount of energy particle loses due to friction and the frequency of its oscillations, respectively. The accretion processes is analyzed by examining the radial velocity, energy density, and accretion mass of matter falling into the BH. Using the equation of state, how different types of fluid, such as stiff, dust, quintessence and phantom‐like dark energy fluid, affect the accretion process near a BH is investigated. Throughout this study, the parameter plays a key role in shaping the dynamics of particles and accretion systems is found. This parameter is a measure of the strength of the nonlinear electrodynamics field, and it can have a significant impact on the radius of the ISCO, the energy efficiency of accretion, and other properties. These findings provide new insights into the physics of particle dynamics around nonlinear charged AdS BHs. They could have implications for understanding the behavior of matter in extreme gravitational environments, such as those found near the center of galaxies.

Recovery of consistency in thermodynamics of regular black holes in Einstein's gravity coupled with nonlinear electrodynamics

As one of candidate theories in the construction of regular black holes, Einstein's gravity coupled with nonlinear electrodynamics has been a topic of great concerns. Owing to the coupling between Einstein's gravity and nonlinear electromagnetic fields, we need to reconsider the first law of thermodynamics, which will lead to a new thermodynamic phase space. In such a phase space, the equation of state accurately describes the complete phase transition process of regular black holes. The Maxwell equal area law strictly holds when the phase transition occurs, and the entropy obeys the Bekenstein-Hawking area formula, which is compatible with the situation in Einstein's gravity.

Non-linear electrodynamics from massive gravity

As a counterpart to the four-fermion interaction, which describes massive vector exchange at low energies, we investigate the low energy effective action of photons under exchange of a massive graviton. We show how integrating out a massive graviton leads to the most general duality-invariant vector interactions in 4D or, vice versa, how any such interactions have a natural interpretation within massive gravity. Moreover, we demonstrate how the special case of Born-Infeld theory arises from arguably the simplest graviton potential within ghost-free dRGT massive gravity.

Hamiltonian birefringence and Born-Infeld limits

Using Hamiltonian methods, we find six relativistic theories of nonlinear electrodynamics for which plane wave perturbations about a constant uniform background are not birefringent. All have the same conformal strong-field limit to Bialynicki-Birula (BB) electrodynamics, but only four avoid superluminal propagation: Born-Infeld (BI), its non-conformal “extreme” limits (electric and magnetic) and the conformal BB limit. The quadratic dispersion relation of BI is shown to degenerate in the extreme limits to a pair of linear relations, which become identical in the BB limit.

Quantum thermodynamics of the charged AdS black hole with nonlinear electrodynamics field

In this paper, we investigate the thermodynamic properties of an AdS-charged black hole coupled with a nonlinear electrodynamic field, taking into account the effects of thermal fluctuations. Our analysis focuses on how thermal fluctuations impact the entropy of the black hole. It is known that at the quantum level, thermal fluctuations bring about changes in the entropy of a black hole in both exponential and logarithmic ways. We present the logarithmic and exponentially corrected thermodynamic characteristics of the black hole, such as Helmholtz free energy, pressure, enthalpy, Gibbs free energy, and specific heat. A comparative analysis of equilibrium states with corrected thermodynamic potentials is conducted to observe the significant influence of the black hole under consideration. Additionally, we examine a second-order phase transition in the case of non-perturbed correction.

The effect of quark–antiquark confinement on the deflection angle by the NED black hole

In this study, we explore the influence of quark–antiquark confinement on the deflection angle within the framework of nonlinear electrodynamic (NED) black holes. To achieve this, we establish the appropriate optical spacetime metric and subsequently determine the Gaussian optical curvature. Utilizing the Gauss–Bonnet theorem, we investigate the impact of quark–antiquark confinement on the deflection angle exhibited by NED black holes. Additionally, we delve into the effects of a cold non-magnetized plasma medium and also axion-plasmon on gravitational lensing. Our findings highlight the significance of the axion-plasmon effect on the optical properties of NED black holes, particularly its influence on gravitational lensing. This exploration is particularly relevant in the context of the axion’s potential role as a dark matter candidate. The multifaceted interplay between quark–antiquark confinement, nonlinear electrodynamics, and plasma dynamics provides a nuanced understanding of gravitational lensing phenomena. These insights contribute to ongoing research in dark matter studies and offer avenues for further theoretical and observational investigations in astrophysics.

(Regular) Black holes in conformal Killing gravity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics and scalar fields

In this work, we explore new solutions with static and spherical symmetry in 4D for black holes and regular black holes in the recently proposed conformal Killing gravity (CKG). This theory is of third order in the derivatives of the metric tensor and essentially satisfies three theoretical criteria for gravitational theories beyond general relativity (GR). The criteria essentially stipulate the following, that one should: (i) obtain the cosmological constant as an integration constant; (ii) derive the energy conservation law as a consequence of the field equations, rather than assuming it; (iii) and not necessarily consider conformally flat metrics as vacuum solutions. In fact, existing modified theories of gravity, including GR, do not simultaneously fulfil all of these three criteria. Here, we couple CKG to nonlinear electrodynamics (NLED) and scalar fields, and we explore solutions of black holes and regular black holes. More specifically, by solving the field equations of CKG, we find specific forms for the NLED Lagrangian, the scalar field and the field potential, and analyse the regularity of the solutions through the Kretschmann scalar. We find generalizations of the Schwarschild–Reissner-Nordström–AdS solutions, and consequently further extend the class of (regular) black hole solutions found in the literature.

Observational signatures: Shadow cast by the effective metric of photons for black holes with rational non-linear electrodynamics

This study explores spherically symmetric non-linear electrodynamics black holes and their effects on light propagation. We derive the governing metric, revealing radial coordinate dynamics within the event horizon. We analyze photon trajectories, finding that increasing magnetic charge expands the horizon and emission range. Furthermore with the help of the Event Horizon Telescope results, we constrain parameters and emission profiles. Direct emission dominates, while lensing rings play a lesser role. Comparing with Schwarzschild black holes, we observe higher intensity but a wider emission region in non-linear electrodynamics black holes. This work enhances our understanding of modified spacetimes and their impact on black hole properties.

Analytic Electrically Charged Black Holes in F(R)-ModMax Theory

Abstract Motivated by a new model of nonlinear electrodynamics known as Modified Maxwell (ModMax) theory, an exact analytical solution for black holes is obtained by coupling ModMax nonlinear electrodynamics and F(R) gravity. Then, the effects of the system’s parameters (F(R)-ModMax gravity parameters) on the event horizons are analyzed. The obtained black hole thermodynamic properties in the F(R)-ModMax theory are investigated by extracting their thermodynamic quantities such as Hawking temperature, electric charge, electric potential, entropy, and also total mass. The first law of thermodynamics for the system under study is evaluated. Next, by considering these black holes, the impacts of various parameters on both the local stability and global stability are investigated by examining the heat capacity and the Helmholtz free energy, respectively. Finally, the thermodynamic geometry of the black hole in F(R)-ModMax gravity is investigated by applying the Hendi–Panahiyan–Eslam Panah–Momennia thermodynamic metric (HPEM’s metric).
