Image of the thin accretion disk around compact objects in the Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet gravity

Abstract We study the optical appearance of a thin accretion disk around compact objects within the Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet gravity. Considering static spherically symmetric black holes and naked singularities we search for characteristic signatures which can arise in the observable images due to the...
