Recent trend of research indicates that not only massive but also massless (asymptotic Newtonian mass zero) wormholes can reproduce post-merger initial ring-down gravitational waves characteristic of black hole horizon. In the massless case, it is the non-zero charge of other fields, equivalent to what we call here the Wheelerian mass, that is responsible for mimicking ring-down quasi-normal modes. In this paper, we enquire whether the same Wheelerian mass can reproduce black hole observables also in an altogether different experiment, viz., the strong field lensing. We examine two classes of massless wormholes, one in the Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton (EMD) theory and the other in the Einstein-Minimally-coupled-Scalar field (EMS) theory. The observables such as the radius of the shadow, image separation and magnification of the corresponding Wheelerian masses are compared with those of a black hole (idealized SgrA* chosen for illustration) assuming that the three types of lenses share the same minimum impact parameter and distance from the observer. It turns out that, while the massless EMS wormholes can closely mimic the black hole in terms of strong field lensing observables, the EMD wormholes show considerable differences due to the presence of dilatonic charge. The conclusion is that masslessless alone is enough to closely mimic Schwarzschild black hole strong lensing observables in the EMS theory but not in the other, where extra parameters also influence those observables. The motion of timelike particles is briefly discussed for completeness.

Strong field gravitational lensings are dramatically disparate from those in the weak field by representing relativistic images due to light winds one to infinity loops around a lens before escaping. We study such a lensing caused by a charged Galile on black hole, which is expected to have possibility to evade no-hair theorem. We calculate the angular separations and time delays between different relativistic images of the charged Galileon black hole. All these observables can potentially be used to discriminate a charged Galileon black hole from others. We estimate the magnitudes of these observables for the closest supermassive black hole Sgr A*. The strong field lensing observables of the charged Galileon black hole can be close to those of a tidal Reissner-Nordstr{o}m black hole or those of a Reissner-Nordstr{o}m black hole. It will be helpful to distinguish these black holes if we can separate the outermost relativistic images and determine their angular separation, brightness difference and time delay, although it requires techniques beyond the current limit.
It has been argued that the recently detected ring-down gravity waveforms could be indicative only of the presence of light rings in a horizonless object, such as a surgical Schwarzschild wormhole, with the frequencies differing drastically from thos e of the horizon quasinormal mode frequencies $omega _{text{QNM}}$ at late times. While the possibility of such a horizonless alternative is novel by itself, we show by the example of Ellis-Bronnikov wormhole that the differences in $omega _{text{QNM}}$ in the eikonal limit (large $l$) need not be drastic. This result will be reached by exploiting the connection between $omega _{text{QNM}}$ and the Bozza strong field lensing parameters. We shall also show that the lensing observables of the Ellis-Bronnikov wormhole can also be very close to those of a black hole (say, SgrA$^{ast }$ hosted by our galaxy) of the same mass. This situation indicates that the ring-down frequencies and lensing observables of the Ellis-Bronnikov wormhole can remarkably mimic those of a black hole. The constraint on wormhole parameter $gamma $ imposed by experimental accuracy is briefly discussed. We also provide independent arguments supporting the stability of the Ellis-Bronnikov wormhole proven recently.
Can a dynamically robust bosonic star (BS) produce an (effective) shadow that mimics that of a black hole (BH)? The BH shadow is linked to the existence of light rings (LRs). For free bosonic fields, yielding mini-BSs, it is known that these stars ca n become ultra-compact - i.e., possess LRs - but only for perturbatively unstable solutions. We show this remains the case even when different self-interactions are considered. However, an effective shadow can arise in a different way: if BSs reproduce the existence of an innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) for timelike geodesics (located at $r_{rm ISCO}=6M$ for a Schwarzschild BH of mass M), the accretion flow morphology around BHs is mimicked and an effective shadow arises in an astrophysical environment. Even though spherical BSs may accommodate stable timelike circular orbits all the way down to their centre, we show the angular velocity along such orbits may have a maximum away from the origin, at $R_{Omega}$; this scale was recently observed to mimic the BHs ISCO in some scenarios of accretion flow. Then: (i) for free scalar fields or with quartic self-interactions, $R_{Omega} eq 0$ only for perturbatively unstable BSs; (ii) for higher scalar self-interactions, e.g. axionic, $R_{Omega} eq 0$ is possible for perturbatively stable BSs, but no solution with $R_{Omega}=6M$ was found in the parameter space explored; (iii) but for free vector fields, yielding Proca stars (PSs), perturbatively stable solutions with $R_{Omega} eq 0$ exist, and indeed $R_{Omega}=6M$ for a particular solution. Thus, dynamically robust spherical PSs can mimic the shadow of a (near-)equilibrium Schwarzschild BH with the same M, in an astrophysical environment, despite the absence of a LR, at least under some observation conditions, as we confirm by comparing the lensing of such PSs and Schwarzschild BHs.
We extend a recent work on weak field first order light deflection in the MOdified Gravity (MOG) by comprehensively analyzing the actual observables in gravitational lensing both in the weak and strong field regime. The static spherically symmetric b lack hole (BH) obtained by Moffat is what we call here the Schwarzschild-MOG (abbreviated as SMOG) containing repulsive Yukawa-like force characterized by the MOG parameter $alpha>0$ diminishing gravitational attraction. We point out a remarkable feature of SMOG, viz., it resembles a regular textit{brane-world} BH in the range $-1<alpha <0$ giving rise to a negative tidal charge $Q$ ($=frac{1}{4}frac{alpha }{1+alpha}$) interpreted as an imprint from the $5D$ bulk with an imaginary source charge $q$ in the brane. The Yukawa-like force of MOG is attractive in the brane-world range enhancing gravitational attraction. For $-infty <alpha <-1$, the SMOG represents a naked singularity. Specifically, we shall investigate the effect of $alpha $ or Yukawa-type forces on the weak (up to third PPN order) and strong field lensing observables. For illustration, we consider the supermassive BH SgrA* with $alpha =0.055$ for the weak field to quantify the deviation of observables from GR but in general we leave $alpha$ unrestricted both in sign and magnitude so that future accurate lensing measurements, which are quite challenging, may constrain $alpha$.

A perturbative method to compute the deflection angle of both timelike and null rays in arbitrary static and spherically symmetric spacetimes in the strong field limit is proposed. The result takes a quasi-series form of $(1-b_c/b)$ where $b$ is the impact parameter and $b_c$ is its critical value, with coefficients of the series explicitly given. This result also naturally takes into account the finite distance effect of both the source and detector, and allows to solve the apparent angles of the relativistic images in a more precise way. From this, the BH angular shadow size is expressed as a simple formula containing metric functions and particle/photon sphere radius. The magnification of the relativistic images were shown to diverge at different values of the source-detector angular coordinate difference, depending on the relation between the source and detector distance from the lens. To verify all these results, we then applied them to the Hayward BH spacetime, concentrating on the effects of its charge parameter $l$ and the asymptotic velocity $v$ of the signal. The BH shadow size were found to decrease slightly as $l$ increase to its critical value, and increase as $v$ decreases from light speed. For the deflection angle and the magnification of the images however, both the increase of $l$ and decrease of $v$ will increase their values.
