Optical properties of black holes in the presence of a plasma: The shadow

We have studied photon motion around axially symmetric rotating Kerr black holes in the presence of a plasma with radial power-law density. It is shown that in the presence of a plasma, the observed shape and size of the shadow changes depending on the (i) plasma parameters, (ii) black hole …
