Charged Particle and Strong Cosmic Censorship in Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter Black Holes (1901.11214v2)

Abstract: We investigate the instability of the unstable circular orbit of a charged null particle to test the strong cosmic censorship conjecture in Nariai-type near-extremal Reissner--Nordstr\"{o}m--de Sitter black holes. The instability is estimated as the Lyapunov exponent and found to depend on the mass and charge of the black hole. Then, we explicitly show that charged null particles in unstable circular orbits correspond to the charged massless scalar field in the eikonal limit. This provides a compact relationship representing the quasinormal frequency in terms of the characteristics of unstable circular orbits in near Nariai-type extremal conditions. According to this relationship, the strong cosmic censorship conjecture is valid.
