abstract

We investigate the strong gravitational lensing of spherically symmetric black holes in the novel Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet(EGB) gravity surrounded by unmagnetised plasma medium. The deflection angle in the strong deflection limit in EGB spacetime with homogeneous plasma is derived. We find that both the coupling constant $\alpha$ in the novel EGB gravity and the presence of plasma can affect the radius of photon sphere, strong field limit coefficient and other lensing observables significantly. While plasma has little effect on the angular image separation and the relative magnifications as $\alpha/M^2\to -8$ and $\alpha/M^2\to 1$, respectively.

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Higher-curvature EFT terms modify the photon sphere radius, critical impact parameter, and strong deflection coefficients, providing sensitive probes for constraints on quantum gravity effects via lensing and QNM spectra.

    For a cubic-plus-quartic curvature EFT, photon-sphere and strong-lensing observables shift at first order in the couplings, but the impact-parameter formula is dimensionally wrong and the gravitational-wave QNM predic...
