The optical appearance of the numerically black hole solutions within the higher derivative gravity illuminated by an accretion disk context is discussed. We obtain solutions for non-Schwarzschild black holes with r0 = 1, r0 = 2, and r0 = 3. Further analysis of spacetime trajectories reveals properties similar to Schwarzschild black holes, while the r0 = 2 black hole exhibits significant differences. The results reveal the presence of a repulsive potential barrier for the black hole, allowing only particles with energies exceeding a certain threshold to approach it, providing a unique gravitational scenario for non-Schwarzschild black holes. Additionally, the optical images are derived through numerical simulations by discussing the trajectories of photons intheblackholespacetime.The distribution of radiation flux and the effects of gravitational redshift and Doppler shift on the observed radiation flux are considered. Interestingly, previous analyses of the optical appearance of black holes were conducted within the framework of analytic solutions, whereas the analysis of numerical black hole solutions first appears in our analysis.

  1. Optical images of Kerr-Sen black hole illuminated by thick accretion disks

    astro-ph.HE 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Increasing charge Q shrinks photon rings and central shadows in Kerr-Sen black hole images while spin creates brightness asymmetry; polarization patterns follow lensing and frame dragging.

  2. Observable thin accretion disk around a self-dual black hole in loop quantum gravity

    gr-qc 2025-09 conditional novelty 3.0

    A self-dual loop quantum black hole is shown to look smaller and brighter than Schwarzschild in thin disk models, with the polymer parameter P bounded by Mercury and S2 star data.
