The influence of the medium on the gravitational deflection of light rays is widely discussed in literature for the simplest non-trivial case: cold non-magnetized plasma. In this article, we generalize these studies to the case of an arbitrary transparent dispersive medium with a given refractive index. We calculate the deflection angle of light ray moving in a general spherically symmetric metric in the presence of medium with the spherically symmetric refractive index. The equation for the radius of circular light orbits is also derived. We discuss in detail the properties of these results and various special cases. In particular, we show that multiplying the refractive index by a constant does not affect the deflection angle and radius of circular orbits. At the same time, the presence of dispersion makes the trajectories different from the case of vacuum even in spatially homogeneous medium. As one of the applications of our results, we calculate the correction to the angle of vacuum gravitational deflection for the case when a massive object is surrounded by homogeneous but dispersive medium. As another application, we present the calculation of the shadow of a black hole surrounded by medium with arbitrary refractive index. Our results can serve as a basis for studies of various plasma models beyond the cold plasma case.
We study motions of photons in an unmagnetized cold homogeneous plasma medium in the five-dimensional charged static squashed Kaluza-Klein black hole spacetime. In this case, a photon behaves as a massive particle in a four-dimensional spherically sy
We perform a numerical study of black hole formation from the spherically symmetric collapse of a massless scalar field. The calculations are done in Painleve-Gullstrand (PG) coordinates that extend across apparent horizons and allow the numerical ev
We present a solution of Einstein equations with quintessential matter surrounding a $d$-dimensional black hole, whose asymptotic structures are determined by the state of the quintessential matter. We examine the thermodynamics of this black hole an
We consider the new horizon first law in $f(R)$ theory with general spherically symmetric black hole. We derive the general formulas to computed the entropy and energy of the black hole. For applications, some nontrivial black hole solutions in some
With the assumptions of a quartic scalar field, finite energy of the scalar field in a volume, and vanishing radial component of 4-current at infinity, an exact static and spherically symmetric hairy black hole solution exists in the framework of Hor
