The Shadow of Generalized Kerr Black Holes with Exotic Matter

Abstract

We explore the shadow of certain class generalized Kerr black holes, which are non vacuum solutions of the Einstein equations with exotic matter. The images depend on the angular momentum of the compact object, the characteristic parameter $l$ of the model, and the inclination angle of the observer. The results are compared with the case of the Kerr black hole and the Kerr naked singularity.
