Quasinormal modes of nonlinearly charged black holes surrounded by a cloud of strings in Rastall gravity

Abstract

In this paper, we obtain the black hole solution for the Ayón-Beato–García (ABG)-type black hole surrounded by a cloud of strings in Rastall gravity and calculate the scalar quasinormal modes of it for a massless scalar field. To have a better visualization of the results, we also introduce a new nonlinear electrodynamic source and obtain a black hole solution surrounded by a cloud of strings in the Rastall gravity. We see that the quasinormal modes are affected by the type of nonlinear electrodynamic sources in case of higher magnitudes of charge [Formula: see text]. With increase in the magnitude of charge [Formula: see text], gravitational waves decay rapidly for the new black hole solution, while for the ABG black hole, the decay rate increases initially and finally starts to decrease near to [Formula: see text]. We also study the impact of the cloud of strings and other model parameters, including the Rastall parameter on the quasinormal modes for both of the black holes. The gravitational waves decay slowly with increase in the cloud of strings parameter for both of the black holes. Dependency of quasinormal modes on the Rastall parameter is different from a surrounding dark energy field and the decay of gravitational waves may be slow or rapid depending on the value of this parameter.
