Gravitational lensing by Einstein-Born-Infeld black holes
Abstract
In this paper, charged black holes in general relativity coupled to Born-Infeld electrodynamics are studied as gravitational lenses. The positions and magnifications of the relativistic images are obtained using the strong deflection limit, and the results are compared with those corresponding to a Reissner-Nordstrom black hole with the same mass and charge. As numerical examples, the model is applied to the supermassive Galactic center black hole and to a small size black hole situated in the Galactic halo.
