Abstract
This paper investigates the orbital dynamics and gravitational wave radiation characteristics of neutral test particles around a static spherically symmetric charged black hole (BH) in 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (4D-EGB) gravity theory. We analyze the dependence of the marginally bound orbit (MBO) and the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) on the Gauss-Bonnet coupling parameter and charge . The results indicate that the orbital radius, angular momentum, and energy all decrease with increasing or , with the corresponding bound orbit region shifting leftward in the parameter space. By combining observational data from the BH shadows of M87* and Sgr A* as well as the orbital precession of the S2 star, we constrain the model parameters and find that existing observations can limit the ranges of and to a certain extent. Furthermore, we investigate the characteristics of periodic orbits corresponding to different rational numbers and the gravitational waveforms they excite, finding that variations in and can lead to distinguishable differences in periodic orbit structures and gravitational wave phases. This study contributes to understanding the effects of Gauss-Bonnet corrections on BH spacetimes, and the results may provide theoretical references for future gravitational wave observations of extreme mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs).
