Geodesic orbit equations in the Schwarzschild geometry of general relativity reduce to ordinary conic sections of Newtonian mechanics and gravity for material particles in the non-relativistic limit. On the contrary, geodesic orbit…
In general relativity, the motion of an extended body moving in a given spacetime can be described by a particle on a (generally non-geodesic) worldline. In first approximation, this worldline is a geodesic of the underlying spacetime, and…
Null and timelike geodesics around a 2+1 black hole are determined. Complete geodesics of both types exist in the rotating black-hole background, but not in the spinless case. Upper and lower bounds for the radial size of the orbits are…
In this paper we study geodesic motion around a distorted Schwarzschild black hole. We consider both timelike and null geodesics which are confined to the black hole's equatorial plane. Such geodesics generically exist if the distortion…
