Probing the Lorentz Invariance Violation via Gravitational Lensing and Analytical Eigenmodes of Perturbed Slowly Rotating Bumblebee Black Holes

Abstract: The ability of bumblebee gravity models to explain dark energy, which is the phenomenon responsible for the universe's observed accelerated expansion, is one of their most significant applications. An effect that causes faster expansion can be linked to how much the Lorentz symmetry of our universe is violated. Moreover, since we do not know what generates dark energy, the bumblebee gravity theory seems highly plausible. By utilizing the physical changes happening around a rotating bumblebee black hole (RBBH), we aim to obtain more specific details about the bumblebee black hole's spacetime and our universe. However, as researched in the literature, slow-spinning RBBH (SRBBH) spacetime, which has a higher accuracy, will be considered instead of general RBBH. To this end, we first employ the Rindler--Ishak method (RIM), which enables us to study how light is bent in the vicinity of a gravitational lens. We evaluate the deflection angle of null geodesics in the equatorial plane of the SRBBH spacetime. Then, we use astrophysical data to see the effect of the Lorentz symmetry breaking (LSB) parameter on the bending angle of light for numerous astrophysical stars and black holes. We also acquire the analytical greybody factors (GFs) and quasinormal modes (QNMs) of the SRBBH. Finally, we visualize and discuss the results obtained in the conclusion section.
