Light Propagation Near A Black Hole Distorted By An External Quadrupole Moment |
|
Abstract |
For isolated and stationary black holes analytical descriptions of the shadow already exist. Surrounding such a black hole with an external matter distribution, e.g. an external galaxy, leads to deformation of the spacetime – we speak of distorted black holes. Consequently, the shadow of such black holes deviates from the Schwarzschild- or Kerr-case. In this talk I will present our progress in analytically describing the shadow of a black hole under the influence of an external quadrupolar gravitational field. |
