The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) image of M87* provides a direct test of strong-field gravity, measuring an angular shadow diameter $\theta_{d}=42\pm 3~\mu\mathrm{as}$ and a circularity deviation $\Delta C\leq 0.1$. Such observations allow…
We investigate a rotating black hole embedded in a five-dimensional flat bulk by extending the Kerr metric through the Gurses-Gursey line element. Employing Boyer-Lindquist coordinates, we reinterpret the black hole as a charged-like object…
The S-stars in the Galactic center (GC) are anticipated to provide unique dynamical constraint on the spin of the GC massive black hole (MBH). In this paper, we develop a fast full general relativistic method to simultaneously constrain the…

We investigate the shadow cast by a regular black hole in scalar-tensor-vector mOdified gravity theory. This black hole differs from a Schwarzschild-Kerr black hole by the dimensionless parameter $\beta$. The size of the shadow depends on…
We investigate constraints on the distribution of dark matter in the neighbourhood of the Galactic centre that may eventually be attained with the high-resolution Event Horizon Telescope (EHT). The shadow of a black hole in vacuum is used…
