KERR-MOG BLACK HOLE IMMERSED IN EXTERNAL MAGNETIC FIELD
Abstract
The pioneering direct detection of gravitational waves by the LIGO-Virgo collaboration [1] and the first ever observed image of a supermassive BH at the center of the elliptic galaxy M87 by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) col- laboration using very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) [2] have made grate impact on development of both theoretical and experimental/observational investigations in relativistic astrophysics. Meanwhile these two discoveries open window to research related to development of new tests of the gravity theories in the strong field regime. General relativity proposed by Albert Einstein has been successfully tested in weak field regime using, e.g. solar system tests [3]. Although the gravitational wave detection [4] and black hole shadow [2] observation justify the general relativity the current resolution of these observations leave open the window for the modified and alternative theories of gravity [5]. Accordingly, the numerous authors have started to develop the theoretical research devoted to study the effects of main parameters coming from the alternative theories of gravity on shadow and optical properties of black holes.
