Abstract

We present an analytic solution for accretion of a gaseous medium with adiabatic equation of state onto a charged dilaton black hole which moves at a constant velocity. We determine the four-velocity of accreted flow and find that it possesses axial symmetry. We obtain the particle number density and the accretion rate which depend on the mass, the magnetic charge, and the dilation of black hole, meaning that these parameters take important roles in the process of accretion. Possible theoretical and observational constraints on the parameter related to the dilation are discussed. The results may help us to get deeper understanding of the behavior of accreted flow near the event horizon of black hole.

Naturally Light Distortion

In the most general formulation of gravity, the metric and connection are independent degrees of freedom, and the connection may include torsion and non-metricity (or distortion, collectively) degrees of freedom, resulting in a huge number of possible dynamical fields. However, most fields are either non-dynamical or extremely heavy and the general relativity is recovered at low energy. We find a unique naturally light vector- or scalar-like distortion field, which can be dynamical and have phenomenological implications. In particular, a light scalar particle that mixes with the Higgs boson naturally appears.

Polarization-Dependent Photon Propagation, Quasinormal Modes, and Gravitational Lensing in Higher-Curvature Effective Theories

We investigate the impact of higher-curvature corrections on photon propagation within an effective field theory framework and their observational consequences in strong gravitational fields. We consider polarization-dependent modifications to photon trajectories in static and spherically symmetric spacetimes, focusing on Schwarzschild and Reissner--Nordström black hole backgrounds. Using the geometrical optics approximation, we derive the effective metrics governing photon propagation and study the resulting polarization-dependent shifts of the photon sphere. We compute the corresponding quasinormal modes in the eikonal limit and analyze their polarization dependence. We further investigate gravitational lensing, focusing on polarization-dependent corrections to the deflection angle in both weak- and strong-field regimes. In the strong-deflection regime, we find that even perturbatively small EFT corrections modify the coefficient of the logarithmically divergent part of the deflection angle, resulting in a potentially observable difference from the uncorrected case. This suggests that strong gravitational lensing may provide a sensitive probe of small higher-curvature corrections. While extracting EFT information directly from QNM frequencies is more subtle, QNMs may provide complementary information to gravitational lensing in future studies. Our results establish a framework for probing higher-curvature effects through polarization-dependent strong-field observables.

Dynamics for Spin-$1/2$ Particles in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Gravity II: Non-Relativistic Case

In this work, I investigate the non-relativistic quantum dynamics of spin-1/2 particles in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (EGB) gravity and establish a direct connection between higher-curvature corrections, fermionic dynamics, and the phenomenology of compact objects. Starting from the Dirac Hamiltonian in a static, spherically symmetric EGB spacetime, we perform a Fold-Wouthuysen transformation and derive the effective Hamiltonian, including relativistic kinetic, gravitational, spin-orbit, and higher-curvature contributions. Heisenberg equations are then used to obtain the dynamics of velocity, force, and spin, revealing explicit EGB corrections for both translational motion and spin transport. In particular, the spin-orbit sector induces a modified precession frequency whose fractional deviation from general relativity scales as $δ_Ω=-4(ξ/M^{2})(M/ρ)^{3}$, providing a clear dimensionless signature of the Gauss-Bonnet coupling. Through Ehrenfest's theorem, we also establish the correspondence between the dynamics of quantum operators and their semiclassical gravitational limit. As an astrophysical application, we consider the stellar-mass black hole A0620-00 and show that prospective relative sensitivities in spin precession on the order of $10^{-3}$ to $10^{-4}$ can probe Gauss-Bonnet couplings in the range of approximately $10^{6}$ to $10^{8}\,{\rm m}^{2}$, depending on the orbital radius. This result identifies fermionic spin precession as a complementary channel for testing gravity with higher-curvature corrections and provides a quantum-mechanical framework connecting modified gravitational dynamics to precision phenomenology in strong-gravity regimes.
