Shadow and Quasinormal Modes of a Rotating Loop Quantum Black Hole
Abstract
In this paper, we construct an effective rotating loop quantum black hole (LQBH) solution, starting from the spherical symmetric LQBH by applying the Newman-Janis algorithm modified by Azreg-A\"{i}nou's non-complexification procedure, and study the effects of loop quantum gravity { (LQG) on its shadow}. Given the rotating {LQBH}, we discuss its horizon, ergosurface, and regularity {as} . Depending on the values of the specific angular momentum and the polymeric function arising from {LQG}, we {find} that the rotating solution we obtained can represent a regular black hole, a regular extreme black hole, or a regular spacetime {without horizon (a non-black-hole solution)}. We also {study} the effects of {LQG} and rotation, and {show} that, in addition to the specific angular momentum, the polymeric function {also} causes deformations in the size and shape of the black hole shadow. Interestingly, for a given value of and inclination angle , the apparent size of the shadow monotonically decreases, and the shadow gets more distorted with increasing . We also {consider the effects of on the deviations from the circularity of the shadow, and find} that the deviation from circularity increases with increasing for fixed values of and . Additionally, we explore the observational implications of in comparison with the latest Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observation of the supermassive black hole, M. The connection between the shadow radius and quasinormal modes in the eikonal limit as well as {the} deflection of massive particles are also considered.
