Ellis-Bronnikov wormholes with NUT charge

Masato Nozawa, Tomohiro Harada, Keisuke Nakashi

We construct an exact NUT-charged generalization of the Ellis-Bronnikov wormhole in the Einstein-phantom-scalar system. The solution is stationary, asymptotically locally flat at b…

Ellis-Bronnikov Wormhole Shadows with Spherically Symmetric Accretion Flow

Mikiya M. Takahashi, Keisuke Nakashi

We investigate the observational differences between the Ellis--Bronnikov (EB) wormhole and the Schwarzschild black hole (BH) by performing general relativistic radiative transfer…

Probing higher curvature gravity via ringdown with overtones

Keisuke Nakashi, Masashi Kimura, Hayato Motohashi +1

We investigate metric perturbations of a spherically symmetric black hole in higher curvature gravity. We show that higher curvature corrections deform the near-horizon region of t…

Black hole ringdown from physically sensible initial value problem in higher-order scalar-tensor theories

Keisuke Nakashi, Masashi Kimura, Hayato Motohashi +1

We study odd-parity perturbations about static and spherically symmetric black hole solutions with a linearly time-dependent scalar field in higher-order scalar-tensor theories. In…

Black hole perturbations in higher-order scalar-tensor theories: initial value problem and dynamical stability

Keisuke Nakashi, Masashi Kimura, Hayato Motohashi +1

We propose a physically sensible formulation of initial value problem for black hole perturbations in higher-order scalar-tensor theories. As a first application, we study monopole…

Revisiting timelike geodesics in the Fisher-Janis-Newman-Winicour-Wyman spacetime

Keisuke Ota, Shinpei Kobayashi, Keisuke Nakashi

We investigate the timelike geodesics and the periapsis precession of orbits in the Fisher-Janis-Newman-Winicour-Wyman spacetime. This spacetime represents the naked singularity sp…

Photon surfaces in less symmetric spacetimes

Yasutaka Koga, Takahisa Igata, Keisuke Nakashi

We investigate photon surfaces and their stability in a less symmetric spacetime, a general static warped product with a warping function acting on a Riemannian submanifold of codi…

Towards rotating non-circular black holes in string-inspired gravity

Keisuke Nakashi, Masashi Kimura

We study stationary slowly rotating black holes, up to quadratic order in the spin angular momentum, in dynamical Chern-Simons gravity and shift symmetric Einstein scalar Gauss-Bon…

Observability of the innermost stable circular orbit in a near-extremal Kerr black hole

Takahisa Igata, Keisuke Nakashi, Kota Ogasawara

We consider the escape probability of a photon emitted from the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) of a rapidly rotating black hole. As an isotropically emitting light source o…

Effect of a second compact object on stable circular orbits

Keisuke Nakashi, Takahisa Igata

We investigate how stable circular orbits around a main compact object appear depending on the presence of a second one by using the Majumudar--Papapetrou dihole spacetime, which c…

Innermost stable circular orbits in Majumdar--Papapetrou dihole spacetime

Keisuke Nakashi, Takahisa Igata

We investigate the positions of stable circular massive particle orbits in the Majumdar--Papapetrou dihole spacetime with equal mass. In terms of qualitative differences of their s…

Null Geodesics and Repulsive Behavior of Gravity in (2+1)-dimensional Massive Gravity

Keisuke Nakashi, Shinpei Kobayashi, Shu Ueda +1

We study the null geodesics in a static circularly symmetric (SCS) black hole spacetime which is a solution in the -dimensional massive gravity proposed by Bergshoeff, Hohm…
