Shadow and quasinormal modes of novel charged rotating black hole in Born–Infeld theory: Constraints from EHT results

This work investigates the shadow and quasinormal modes of a novel rotating Born–Infeld-type black hole. First, we study the effect of interaction between nonlinear electrodynamic fields and photons on shadow radius and show that it is less than the error of shadow measurements in Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observations. Then, we obtain a rotating metric using the Newman–Janis algorithm, starting with the initial metric of the nonrotating novel Born–Infeld black hole solution. Next, we analyze the null geodesics to determine the celestial coordinates. The black hole’s shadow radius is determined by using celestial coordinates. The mass, spin, charge, and nonlinearity parameters all influence the shape and size of the black hole shadow. An increase in the spin parameter results in a gradual reduction in the size of black hole shadows and further distortion of the shadows. Furthermore, constraints on the spin and electric charge of black holes, as well as the nonlinearity parameter, are derived through the utilization of the shadow sizes of supermassive black holes Sagittarius (Sgr) A* and M87* obtained from observations of the EHT. Also, we investigate the correlation between the standard shadow radius and the equatorial and polar quasinormal modes for revolving black holes. Finally, we analyze the emission energy rate from the black hole based on different spacetime parameters. Our observation indicates that the emission energy rate decreases as the values of spin and nonlinearity parameters increase, keeping the charge-to-mass ratios of the Born–Infeld black hole constant.
