Geodesic study of spherically symmetric black holes in Palatini-type gravity

This paper probes the geodesic structure of spherically symmetric charged black holes using modified theory of gravity. We explore the geodesic structures of different black holes in the background of Palatini f (R) theory as well as Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld gravity. We have examined the stability of orbits with the analysis of effective potential. The impacts of modified gravity on particle dynamics specially the circular orbits, the deflection angle and trajectory followed by lightlike as well as for timelike particles are scrutinized. We find that the orbits are more stable for the large values of charge and Born-Infeld parameter.
