Abstract

We construct solutions in the form of AdS2×ΣAdS_2\times\Sigma, where Σ\Sigma denotes a spindle geometry, within a particular 4d N=2\mathcal{N}=2 gauged supergravity with vector multiplets and a charged hypermultiplet stemming from a consistent truncation of 6d matter coupled F(4)F(4) gauged supergravity on a Riemann surface. We also compute the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy for the presumed asymptotically AdS4AdS_4 black hole solutions, providing a dual prediction for the spindle index of 3d superconformal field theories falling under the class F\mathcal{F}. Notably, the gravitational block description of the solutions accurately replicates the entropy and the values of scalar fields at the two orbifold points of the spindle, validating our findings.
