Strong deflection gravitational lensing by an Einstein–Lovelock ultracompact object

Abstract: We investigate the strong deflection gravitational lensing by an Einstein–Lovelock ultracompact object. Its unique features are the relativistic images inside its photon sphere which are absent for an Einstein–Lovelock black hole. We obtain its lensing observables and evaluate their observability for the direct images of two supermassive black holes in the Galaxy and M87 respectively, Sgr A* and M87*, and for the relativistic microlensing on a star closely around Sgr A*. We find that although it is impossible … Show more

“…The study of gravitational lensing for charged BHs has also been carried out . Other interesting works on strong deflection gravitational lensing have been presented for different BH spacetimes (for example, [65][66][67][68][69]). Another method for calculating the weak deflection angle is available in literature, which has already been applied for different BH spacetimes in modified theories of gravity [70][71][72][73][74].…”

“…However, alternative and modified theories of gravity have also successfully passed through astrophysical tests where GR could not play a role [18,19]. All of the above-mentioned facts imply that testing the theories of gravity and parameters of black holes using observational data from astrophysical black holes is one of the most actual and important issues in theoretical and observational astrophysics [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29].…”
