Stability Analysis of Stable Circular Orbit in Multi-Static Black Hole Spacetime

Abstract

We herein study the circular orbit stability of a static black hole system composed of multiple Reissner–Nordstrom (RN) black holes. By comparing the circular orbits of two static black holes, three static black holes (TBHs), four static black holes and five static black holes at different spacetime, we find that the continuity of their stable circular orbits changes, i.e., the peaks of the effective potentials are transformed from single-peaked to bi-peaked, and that the distance a between the black holes is the main reason for this change. This characteristic is completely different from the continuity of the stable circular orbit interval of any kind of single black hole in the past. After calculation, we obtain several critical values that lead to the change in circular orbit stability. The three fundamental frequencies (orbital frequency, radial local frequency, and vertical local frequency) are derived and compared for two different spacetimes of double and three black holes. We also analyse the effect of the black hole distance a on the three fundamental frequencies of circular orbits.
