Gaussian black holes in brane-world model

We present regular black hole solutions in the framework of Brane-world gravity sourced by a Gaussian matter distribution. The black hole metric shares all the common features of regular black holes in the modified General Relativity (GR) with some exciting features. Considering the energy momentum tensor for an isotropic fluid on the brane, the modified Einstein field equation results with an effective energy momentum tensor that describes an anisotropic fluid determined by brane world parameters. Although the effective radial pressure and energy density satisfy the vacuum energy condition, the effective transverse pressure behaves differently. Gaussian black hole (GBH) solutions are obtained from a Gaussian matter distribution. In the paper, a new class of GBH solutions are obtained in the brane-world gravity with effective normal matter in addition to exotic matter distribution. In the brane world gravity, the mass of a GBH depends on the brane tension. The mass of a GBH formed in the brane world is greater than that at low energy (i.e., GR). We study the trajectories of the massive and the massless particles that can be trapped around a GBH for a set of model parameters. The radii of the photon spheres around the GBH and the condition for the stability of the trajectories of the photon spheres are determined. The properties of the GBHs are studied in detail, including their possible observable features.
