Null paths on a toroidal topological black hole in conformal Weyl gravity
Abstract The motion of massless particles on the background of a toroidal topological black hole is analyzed in the context of conformal Weyl gravity. Null geodesics, in terms of the Jacobi elliptic functions, are found analytically. In addition, the Sagnac effect in this space-time is characterized...

| Summary: | Abstract The motion of massless particles on the background of a toroidal topological black hole is analyzed in the context of conformal Weyl gravity. Null geodesics, in terms of the Jacobi elliptic functions, are found analytically. In addition, the Sagnac effect in this space-time is characterized, and we find a strong condition in the theory’s parameters that is required for its existence. |
