For Reissner-Nordström naked singularities, each rational periodic orbit in the outer region can share the same energy and angular momentum with an inner-region periodic orbit, and the full (L,E) atlas is divided into distinct root-configuration domains.

abstract
We discuss photon and test-particle orbits in the Kehagias-Sfetsos (KS) metric. For any value of the Ho\v{r}ava parameter $\omega$, there are values of the gravitational mass $M$ for which the metric describes a naked singularity, and this is always accompanied by a vacuum "antigravity sphere" on whose surface a test particle can remain at rest (in a zero angular momentum geodesic), and inside which no circular geodesics exist. The observational appearance of an accreting KS naked singularity in a binary system would be that of a quasi-static spherical fluid shell surrounded by an accretion disk, whose properties depend on the value of $M$, but are always very different from accretion disks familiar from the Kerr-metric solutions. The properties of the corresponding circular orbits are qualitatively similar to those of the Reissner-Nordstr\"om naked singularities. When event horizons are present, the orbits outside the Kehagias-Sfetsos black hole are qualitatively similar to those of the Schwarzschild metric.

Periodic orbits of neutral test particles in Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m naked singularities
For Reissner-Nordström naked singularities, each rational periodic orbit in the outer region can share the same energy and angular momentum with an inner-region periodic orbit, and the full (L,E) atlas is divided into distinct root-configuration domains.
