Shadow of the rotating black hole with quintessential energy in the presence of plasma
Annotatsiya
We study the shadow of the rotating black hole with quintessential energy (i) in vacuum, (ii) in the presence of plasma with radial power-law density. For the vacuum case, the quintessential field parameter of the rotating black hole significantly changes the shape of the shadow. With increasing quintessential field parameter, the radius of the shadow also increases. With the increase of the radius of the shadow of the rotating black hole, the quintessential field parameter causes decrease of the distortion of the shadow shape: in the presence of the quintessential field parameter, the shadow of the fast rotating black hole becomes too close to the circle. We assume the distant observer of the black hole shadow to be located near the so-called static radius where the gravitational attraction of the black hole is just balanced by the cosmic repulsion. The shape and size of the shadow of quintessential rotating black hole surrounded by plasma depends on (i) plasma parameters, (ii) black hole spin and (iii) quintessential field parameter. With the increase of the plasma refraction index, the apparent radius of the shadow increases. However, for the large values of the quintessential field parameter, the change of the black hole shadow shape due to the presence of plasma is not significant, i.e. the effect of the quintessential field parameter dominates over the plasma effect.
