Breaking Parameter Degeneracies in a Magnetically Charged Black Hole Embedded in a Hernquist Dark-Matter Halo: A Multi-Observable Analysis
arXiv:2604.22684
Abstract
We study the degeneracy of intrinsic and environmental parameters for BH observables in a static spacetime sourced by a nonlinear magnetic monopole immersed in a Hernquist dark-matter halo. We explore four complementary probes; the shadow radius , eikonal quasinormal-mode frequencies , weak gravitational lensing , and neutrino-antineutrino annihilation , and map their degeneracy contours in the plane at fixed . Different parameter combinations yield signatures nearly indistinguishable from a Schwarzschild black hole single-observable diagnostics cannot uniquely constrain the magnetic charge and halo amplitude. The degeneracy contours are, however, mutually non-parallel: the slopes along constant- and constant- contours differ by a factor , so their combination breaks the remaining degeneracy and constrains both parameters simultaneously. We compute the QNMs spectra using a high-order WKB method with Padé resummation. The magnetic charge raises the real oscillation frequency while the halo lowers it; the cancellation is observable-dependent and does not persist across all four channels. An expansion around an asymptotically renormalized Schwarzschild background of mass shows that at fixed both sectors reduce at first perturbative order. For weak lensing, alone determines the leading deflection, first subleading correction depends on , separating total halo mass from halo concentration. For neutrino-pair annihilation, the magnetic charge suppresses the deposition rate by raising the lapse, while the halo enhances it through the reverse mechanism.
