abstract

We revisit the shadows of rotating braneworld black holes in the Randall-Sundrum type II model, by considering not only the metric in the near region of the black hole but also the linearized metric in the far region where the observer stays. Our study is significantly different from previous studies, which relies only on the metric in the near region. From the study, we identify a critical angle $\theta_c$ which decides the shadow curve is open or closed: the shadow curve would be open if the observational angle $\theta_c<\theta_o\le\pi/2$, and the curve becomes closed when $0<\theta_o\le\theta_c$. We study how various parameters affect the shape of the shadow curve. We furthermore apply our analysis to the data of M87* from the Event Horizon Telescope and obtain a new constraint on the parameters of the braneworld black holes.

  1. Novel extended inner shadow in images of Johannsen-Psaltis black holes with thin accretion disks

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    JP black holes with non-closed horizons produce an 'extended inner shadow' distinct from the ordinary inner shadow, and all image scales (inner shadow, photon ring, peak positions) grow monotonically with |ϵ3|.

  2. Optical Images of the Braneworld Black Hole Surrounded by an Optically Thin Accretion Disk

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A rotating braneworld black hole with tidal charge casts an asymmetric, spin- and q-dependent shadow; with the adopted disk emissivity, its 86 GHz image is brighter than its 230 GHz image.

  3. Shadow constraints of charged black hole with scalar hair and gravitational waves from extreme mass ratio inspirals

    gr-qc 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    EHT shadow data constrain the EMCS black hole charge and scalar hair to about 0.1 and 0.01 levels, while LISA EMRI waveforms could reach 0.01 and 0.0001 levels.

  4. Image of a quantum-corrected black hole without Cauchy horizons illuminated by a static thin accretion disk

    gr-qc 2025-10 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    For the no-Cauchy-horizon quantum-corrected metric, a larger quantum parameter produces larger horizon, photon sphere, ISCO, and shadow, with narrower and tighter-spaced photon and lensed rings.

  5. Thermodynamics and Shadows of Kerr black holes endowed with a global monopole charge

    gr-qc 2025-06 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    The authors derive shadow and thermodynamic quantities for a Kerr-like metric with a global monopole term in Δ, and claim EHT observations constrain the monopole charge α.
