Thermodynamic and geometrothermodynamic studies of charged black holes sitting in string theory: Stability analysis

Abstract

A particular type of charged black holes is chosen, based on an action obtained from string theory. This theory predicts the existence of such black holes. Thermodynamic properties of such kinds of black holes are studied. As conjectured earlier, for the dilaton-Maxwell field coupling constant [Formula: see text], the behaviors of the thermodynamic parameters ([Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]) are found to resemble with those of the Reissner–Nordström black hole. The geometrothermodynamics of the aforesaid black hole is studied and the Ricci scalar of the Ruppeiner metric is graphically examined for different values of the parameter [Formula: see text]. Finally, the parameters as well as the [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text] criticality with different equations for nonzero values of [Formula: see text] are analyzed. Their deviations from the case of Reissner–Nordström black hole are noted with care. Furthermore, the stability of the black hole is studied by computing the specific heat and analyzing it graphically.
