Thermodynamically massless Simpson-Visser black holes

Thanasis Karakasis, Emmanuel N. Saridakis, Zi-Yu Tang

In this work we scrutinize the thermodynamic properties of the Simpson-Visser (SV) spacetime. Working within Einstein gravity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics (NLED) and a scal…

Photon region and shadow of a rotating 5D black string

Zi-Yu Tang, Xiao-Mei Kuang, Bin Wang +1

To explore the possible clues for the extra dimension from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observations, we study the shadow of the rotating 5D black string in General Relativity…

Rotating -dimensional Black Holes in Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton Theory

Thanasis Karakasis, Eleftherios Papantonopoulos, Zi-Yu Tang +1

We consider Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton theory in -dimensions where the coupling between the scalar field and the Maxwell invariant is the dilatonic coupling $f(ϕ) = \exp (-2αϕ…

The length of a compact extra dimension from black hole shadow

Zi-Yu Tang, Xiao-Mei Kuang, Bin Wang +1

Plenty of efforts have been made to explore the black string and its instability, but the fate of the black strings with fewer extra dimensions is still inconclusive. Now starting…
