Polarized image of a Schwarzschild black hole with a thin accretion disk as photon couples to Weyl tensor

et al.

Abstract: We have studied polarized image of a Schwarzschild black hole with an equatorial thin accretion disk as photon couples to Weyl tensor. The birefringence of photon originating from the coupling affect the black hole shadow, the thin disk pattern and its luminosity distribution. We also analyze the observed polarized intensity in the sky plane. The observed polarized intensity in the bright region is stronger than that in the darker region. The stronger effect of the coupling on the observed polarized vector app… Show more

“…Especially, analyzing the polarization information in black hole images can probe further the magnetic field configuration and the powerful jet near black hole, which is beneficial to put insight into physics in the strong field region and to check theories of gravity. Thus, a lot of efforts have been devoted to investigating polarized images for various black holes [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22].…”

“…Moreover, the analysis show that the polarization patterns depend also on the strongly curved spacetime near the black holes. Thus, study of polarized images of black holes is beneficial to probe the matter distribution and the related physical process around black holes [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28], even check theories of gravity.…”

“…And importantly, it turns out that the size and intensity of the bright ring are closely related to the location of thin disk [68]. In this case, an optically observational appearance of thin-shell wormhole and the polarized image of black hole have been carefully addressed later, where some interesting results are obtained [69,70]. Considering the case that the spherically symmetric accretion is infalling, shadow and photon sphere of black hole are also investigated in later studies [71][72][73].…”
