Abstract

We study the shadow behaviors of five dimensional (5D) black holes embedded in type IIB superstring/supergravity inspired spacetimes by considering solutions with and without rotations. Geometrical properties as shapes and sizes are analyzed in terms of the D3-brane number and the rotation parameter. Concretely, we find that the shapes are indeed significantly distorted by such physical parameters and the size of the shadows decreases with the brane or “color” number and the rotation. Then, we investigate geometrical observables and energy emission rate aspects.
