Magnetized Particle Motion in γ-Spacetime in a Magnetic Field

In the present work we explored the dynamics of magnetized particles around the compact object in γ-spacetime in the presence of an external asymptotically-uniform magnetic field. The analysis of the circular orbits of magnetized particles around the compact object in the spacetime of a γ-object immersed in the external magnetic field has shown that the area of stable circular orbits of magnetized particles increases with the increase of γ-parameter. We have also investigated the acceleration of the magnetized particles near the γ-object and shown that the center-of-mass energy of colliding magnetized particles increases with the increase of γ-parameter. Finally, we have applied the obtained results to the astrophysical scenario and shown that the values of γ-parameter in the range of γ ∈ (0.5, 1) can mimic the spin of Kerr black hole up to a ' 0.85, while the magnetic interaction can mimic the γ-parameter at γ ∈ (0.8, 1) and spin of a Kerr black hole up to a ' 0.3.

Rapidly rotating Kerr BH can also play the role of particle accelerator [26]. The energy of colliding particles near the horizon of an extremely rotating black hole can even diverge. On the other hand, an external magnetic field surrounding the BH may have repulsive behavior similar to the rotation parameter of BH and generate an electric field accelerating the charged particles [6,28]. The particles acceleration near the BH has been extensively studied in references [30,. The energetic processes around BHs in the presence of an external magnetic field have been explored in [22][23][24][25][65][66][67][68]. Other astrophysical properties of gravitational compact objects in the presence of a magnetic field have been studied in references [69][70][71].
The formalism of studying the motion of particles with a nonzero magnetic dipole moment around weakly magnetized Schwarzschild BH was first proposed in Reference [72]. This study has been extended to the rotating Kerr BH case in [73]. The magnetized particle dynamics around BH in alternate theories of gravity have been studied by several authors [50,[74][75][76][77][78][79][80][81].
Here we consider the magnetized particle motion and acceleration in the spacetime of the non-rotating compact object described by the so-called γ-metric (also known as the Zipoy-Voorhees spacetime metric) [82,83]. Recently this spacetime metric has been extended to the case of the presence of the scalar field in Reference [84]. The particle motion characteristics in the accretion disc of a BH can be used to develop new tests of gravity theories in a strong field regime [85]. The alternative BH solutions, which can mimic the standard general relativistic solutions have been investigated in [86][87][88][89][90][91].
Here we study how the γ-parameter of the spacetime together with magnetic interaction can mimic the rotation parameter of Kerr BH. In γ spacetime the r = 2M corresponds to the infinitely red-shifted surface rather than event horizon in the Schwarzschild BH spacetime.
The closest S2 star orbiting around Sgr A* is at the distance of about 1000 Schwarzschild radii and its motion definitely cannot be used to test the spin of the BH because the effects of dragging of inertial frames decay as 1/r 3 with the distance from the central object. However, magnetized neutron stars could be treated as magnetized test particles in supermassive BH (SMBH) close environment where the effect of dragging of inertial frames is measurable. Unfortunately, there is no radio pulsar observed near the Sgr A* due to scattering of radio signals in the plasma medium surrounding the SMBH Sgr A*. Moreover, stable orbits could not be allowed for the magnetized objects due to the destructive behavior of the magnetic interaction between the magnetic dipole moment of the radio pulsar and ambient magnetic field. On the other hand, the stability of the magnetized particle orbits depends on the parameters of the considered theory of gravity. However, the dynamics of the test of magnetized particles around compact objects leading to the degeneracy between the parameters of alternate theories of gravity and spin parameter of Kerr BH through the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) measurements are studied in [79][80][81]92,93].
Here we study the electromagnetic field structure and dynamics of magnetized particles around a weakly magnetized γ object. The paper is organized as follows. Section 2 is devoted to studying the test electromagnetic field around the compact object in γ-spacetime. In this section we also study and analyze the magnetized particles motion. We discuss possible astrophysical applications of the obtained results in Section 3. We apply the obtained results to study the acceleration mechanisms around a compact object in γ spacetime in the presence of an external magnetic field in Section 4. The concluding remarks are presented in Section 5.
In this paper we use a spacelike signature (−, +, +, +) for the spacetime and system of geometric units where G = c = 1 (however, for an astrophysical application, we have written the speed of light explicitly in our main resulting expressions). Latin indices run from 1 to 3 and Greek ones from 0 to 3.

Magnetized Particles Motion in Spacetime of Weakly Magnetized γ-Object
In the present work we assume that the energy of the magnetic field is much smaller than the energy of the gravitational field, so that the effect of the magnetic field is negligibly small to change the background spacetime geometry. We will start with the study of gravitational field effects on the electromagnetic field structure created by an asymptotically-uniform magnetic field. The electromagnetic field structure in γ-spacetime has recently been studied in our preceding paper [34]. In spherical coordinates (t, r, θ, φ) the deformed γ-spacetime metric can be expressed as [82,83] ds 2 = g tt dt 2 + g rr dr 2 + g θθ dθ 2 + g φφ dφ 2 , where the components of the metric tensor are defined as with the metric function f = 1 − 2M/r and mass density parameter γ, which corresponds to the axial symmetric deformation. The case γ = 1 corresponds to the well known Schwarzschild solution.
We would like to underline that the γ-spacetime is an exact analytical axial-symmetric solution of Einstein's gravitational field equations for static objects. The spacetime is not spherically symmetric for all values of the γ-parameter and it is spherically symmetric only when γ = 1 when the solution turns to the Schwarzschild one. The external magnetic field created by the electric current of charged particles in the accretion disk can be approximated as a uniform one between the central black hole and accretion disk near the location of the ISCO radius. In the literature, several authors have studied the nonlinear Einstein-Maxwell system where the electromagnetic field energy density is comparable with the matter energy density, which has more academic interest. In the real astrophysical situation, the electromagnetic field is a test one, and we have explored magnetized particle dynamics in the given gravitational background where the electromagnetic field does not change the spacetime.

Compact Object Immersed in Uniform Magnetic Field
In Reference [94], we have found the exact analytical solution for the four-potential of the electromagnetic field around a compact object in γ-spacetime immersed in an external asymptotically uniform magnetic field. Using the existence of timelike and spacelike Killing vectors and Lorentz gauge (∇ α A α = 0) one may use the Wald approach [1] in order to find the potential A α of the electromagnetic field in the following form where B is the external magnetic field. The nonzero components of the electromagnetic field tensor expressed through the magnetic field measured by a proper observer have the following form Finally, one can easily find the non-vanishing orthonormal radial and azimuthal components of the magnetic field in the following form Figure 1 demonstrates the influence of the γ-parameter of spacetime on the external asymptotically uniform magnetic field structure around a compact gravitational γ-object. One may see that when γ < 1 the structure of the magnetic field takes the Meissner-like structure and is expelled from the gravitational object. In the case when γ > 1 the magnetic field around γ-object changes its structure from an asymptotically uniform one to the parabolic one. The magnetic field is expelled from the surface of infinite red-shift when γ < 1 and became a parabolic one when γ > 1. The left panel is for γ = 0.5, the middle one is for γ = 1 and the right panel is for γ = 1.5.

Magnetized Particles Motion
Now we consider the motion of a particles with a nonzero magnetic dipole moment around a compact object in γ-spacetime embedded in an external asymptotically-uniform magnetic field. We use the Hamilton-Jacobi equation in order to obtain magnetized particles equations of motion, which can be expressed as [72] where D µν F µν characterizes the interaction of the external magnetic field with the magnetized particle. Polarization tensor D αβ is given in the following form [72] D αβ = η αβσν u σ µ ν , where µ ν is the four-vector of the magnetic dipole moment and u ν is the four-velocity of the particle. The electromagnetic field tensor F αβ can be decomposed through electric E α and magnetic B α fields in the following form Now the interaction term D αβ F αβ can be calculated as [73] where µ is the magnetic moment of the particle and L[λα] is a function of the spacetime coordinates and spacetime parameters, the tetrad λα is attached to the co-moving fiducial observer. Now we will study the motion of magnetized particles around γ-object immersed in an external uniform magnetic field. We consider weak electromagetic field approximation where D µν F µν 2 → 0. At the equatorial plane (θ = π/2) the equations of motion for magnetized particles can be expressed as where "dot" represents derivative with respect to an affine parameter along a particle's trajectory, specific energy E and specific angular momentum l are normalized to the mass of the magnetized particle. Using the definition of the effective potential of radial motioṅ one may easily find the expression for the effective potential of radial motion of the magnetized particle as where β = 2µB/m is the magnetic coupling parameter and its value for the case when the magnetized neutron star treated as a test magnetized particle with magnetic dipole moment orbiting around an SMBH can be calculated as: Now we will estimate the value of the β parameter in a realistic situation when a neutron star with mass m NS = 1.4 M , radius R NS = 10 6 cm and the surface magnetic field B NS = 10 12 G is orbiting around an SMBH in the presence of an external magnetic field as For example, the value of the magnetic coupling parameter β for the magnetar SGR (PSR) J1745-2900 (µ 1.6 × 10 32 G · cm 3 and m NS 1.5M ) orbiting the SMBH Sgr A* [95] is In the limiting case when γ = 1 we will get the expression (16) for the magnetized particle motion around Schwarzschild BH in the magnetic field (see, e.g., [73]). Consider the conditionṡ which define the circular orbits of the magnetized particles around the compact gravitational object. The solution of the first equation in (20) with respect to the coupling parameter β has the following form Using the expression (16) one can easily rewrite the second condition in (20) in the following form Now one can easily find the explicit form of the magnetic interaction term between the magnetic field and particle's magnetic moment in the following form where and Ω is the angular velocity of the particle at the equatorial plane.
Comparison of Equations (23) and (11) gives us the following relation The angular velocity of the magnetized particle can be found as Finally, one may obtain the following expression for the magnetic coupling parameter β(r, l, E , γ) Figure 2 illustrates the radial dependence of the β function for the different values of γ-parameter and angular momentum.
The condition for existence of the stable circular orbits for the magnetized particles can be expressed using the β function as which is the system of two equations with five parameters β, r, l, E , γ. The solution of Equation (27) can be parametrized in terms of any two of four independent variables. We will use the radius and the magnetic coupling parameter as free parameters. One may find the minimum value of the specific angular momentum l and energy E of the magnetized particle as function of coupling parameter β and radius of the circular orbits r as a free parameter for the different values of γ-parameter. The minimum value of the energy of the magnetized particles at stable circular orbits will has the following form  Figure 3 shows the radial dependence of the minimum value of the specific energy of magnetized particles at stable circular orbits for the different values of γ-parameter and for the fixed value of angular momentum (l 2 = 5). From the obtained dependence one can see that the energy is the same for all values of the γ-parameter at r = 3M and has the value E min = l/(3 √ 3). However, at the distances r > 3M the energy decreases with the increase of the γ-parameter. Inserting Equation (28) into Equation (26) one can calculate the minimum value of the β parameter as   The minimum value of the specific angular momentum can be found by solving the equation ∂β min /∂r = 0 with respect to the specific angular momentum l 2 as Figure 5 shows the radial dependence of the minimum value of specific angular momentum corresponding to the stable circular orbits for the different values of γ-parameter. One can see from the results of Figure 5 that the value of the specific angular momentum tends to infinity at r = 3M and decreases with the increase of radial coordinate (r ≥ 3M) as a power-law function. Furthermore, the degree of the power decreases with the increase of the parameter γ. Physically this implies the fact that in the case when parameter γ < 1 (γ > 1), gravitational interaction of the central object becomes weaker (stronger). Now we will substitute the expression for minimum value of the specific angular momentum (30) into Equation (29) and get The effect of γ-parameter on the extreme value of the magnetic coupling parameter corresponding to the upper limit of stable circular orbits for magnetized particles is presented in Figure 6. One can easily see from Figure 6 that the extreme value of the β parameter increases for γ = 1. It is due to strong influence of γ-parameter on the magnetic field structure (see [34] for more details). In Figure 6, blue dashed and red dashed lines correspond to γ = 1.7 and γ = 0.3, respectively.

Analysis of the expressions for minimum and extreme values of the magnetic coupling parameter
β show that both β ext = β min = 0 at r ≤ 3M (see Figures 4 and 6). It implies that no magnetized particle can be at stable circular orbit inside the distance 3M from the central object. This fundamental result does not depend on the value of the parameter γ. Solving the equation β = β min with respect to l one may rewrite the expressions for the minimum value of specific angular momentum in terms of parameter β in the following form Substituting Equation (32) in to Equation (28) one can get One may now consider the range of stable circular orbits of the magnetized particles around the gravitational γ object immersed in the magnetic field for different values of the parameter γ. It is obvious that the value of stable orbits radius r = r min takes the minimum value at l = 0 (in this case the repulsive Lorentz force compensates an attractive gravitational one) for minimum specific energy. It can be found through the solution of the following equation The upper limit for stable orbits can be found using the condition when centrifugal and Lorentz forces are balanced with the gravitational force. In other words, the value of angular momentum can not exceed the value l min and the value of the function β corresponds to the upper limit for the magnetic coupling parameter. The maximum radius of the orbits r max can be found by solving the following equation The range between r min and r max is the area where stable orbits for magnetized particles are allowed. The numerical solutions of Equations (33) and (34) are presented in Table 1. From the results in Table 1 one can see that the range ∆r = r max − r min increases with the increase of both β and γ-parameters. For the case β ≥ 1 there are no circular orbits. The circular orbits may exist at spatial infinity because the limits of both extreme and minimum values of the β parameter at l = 0 have the following values lim r→∞ β min (r, γ, l = 0) = 1 , lim r→∞ β extr (r, γ) = 1 .
Using the above estimation in Equation (18) one may conclude that a magnetar with the dipole magnetic field B NS ≥ 5 × 10 14 G cannot be in circular orbits in the close environment of Sgr A*.

Astrophysical Applications
The study and analysis of the observed data on the electromagnetic spectra of BH's accretion disk may be helpful to investigate the geometry of the spacetime around the central object and construct new tests of extended theories of gravity in a strong field regime. Particularly, observations of micro-quasars (BH binaries) can help to study the inner edge of an accretion disk corresponding to ISCO and get estimations for parameters of the BH such as spin parameter of Kerr BH. However, the central object may not be described exactly by the Kerr geometry but by other exact solutions of extended theories of gravity, which may mimic the observational features of astrophysical BH. In this section we will focus on showing how the magnetic coupling and γ-parameters can mimic the spin of rotating Kerr BH, providing exactly the same value for the ISCO radius of magnetized particles. Note that one may consider magnetized particles as neutral test particles in the study of their dynamics around rotating Kerr BHs in a vacuum.
Here we consider the astrophysical applications of the theoretical study of the ISCO of neutral particles around the compact object in γ-spacetime. We compare our results with the ISCO radius of test particles around rapidly rotating Kerr BH with non-vanishing spin parameter a.
The ISCO radius of the test particles around rotating Kerr BH can be expressed as [96] where Note that in Equation (36) and in the notation used, all parameters are normalized to the BH mass M, '−' ('+') sign corresponds to pro-grate (retro-grate) orbits of particles around Kerr BH.
In this application our aim is to investigate the ISCO radius of magnetized particles around (i) Schwarzschild BH in the magnetic field, (ii) Kerr BH and (iii) deformed γ-spacetime in the magnetic field in order to get degenerate values of spin, magnetic coupling and γ-parameters giving the same ISCO radius. Figure 7 demonstrates the dependence of the ISCO radius of the magnetized particle from magnetized coupling, rotation and γ-parameters. One can see that γ-parameter can mimic the spin of Kerr BH on the observations of ISCO radii of test particles. One can also conclude that the possibility of distinguishing the Kerr BH from the other gravitational objects mentioned above for the values of spin parameter a ≥ 0.85 if only the ISCO radius of the particle is approximately r isco ≤ 2.2M (see Figure 7).  Now, we will give a detailed analysis of the mimicker degeneracy cases between rotation, γ-and magnetic coupling parameters.
In Figure 8 we present the relations between (i) γ and rotation a parameters (red colored dashed line), (ii) γ and magnetic coupling β parameters (blue colored large dashed line), rotation a and magnetic coupling β parameters (gray colored solid line) providing the same values of the ISCO radius. Results show the following degeneracy values of the parameters: (i) The study of the ISCO radius of a test magnetized particles around rotating Kerr BH and deformed spacetime of γ-object shows the degeneracy relation between the rotation parameter a and γ-parameter corresponding to exactly the same value of the ISCO radius of the magnetized particles. One can see from the red dashed line in Figure 8 that the rotation parameter a of the Kerr BH can be mimicked by the effect of the γ-parameter for the range γ ∈ (0.5, 1) providing the same ISCO radius. (ii) In the case of magnetized particles motion around the BH immersed in the magnetic field and the deformed static object described by γ-metric, the same ISCO radius for the magnetized particles can be observed. The detailed analysis shows that (see red dashed line in Figure 8) γ-parameter in the range of values of γ ∈ (0.8, 1) can mimic the magnetic coupling parameter up to β = 1 providing the same ISCO radius. (iii) The external magnetic field can mimic the rotation parameter of the Kerr BH through astronomical observations of the motion of magnetized particles around Schwarzschild BH immersed in an external asymptotically-uniform magnetic field providing exactly the same values of the ISCO radius. One can see from Figure 8 (blue large dashed line) that the values of the magnetic coupling parameter β ≤ 1 can mimic the spin of rotating Kerr BH up to a 0.3.

Magnetized Particles Acceleration in γ-Spacetime
In this section, we will study the center-of-mass energy of two colliding particles. We will consider the magnetized-magnetized, magnetized-neutral, and magnetized-charged particles collisions. The expression for the center-of-mass energy for two particles can be found as the sum of twomomenta [93,97,98] {E cm , 0, 0, 0} = m 1 u where, u α 1 and u β 2 are the four-velocities of the two colliding particles with the masses m 1 and m 2 , respectively. One can easily calculate the square of center-of-mass energy defined in (38) and get or Hereafter, we will consider the collision of the particles with the equal mass m 1 = m 2 = m and initial energy as E 1 = E 2 = m. Then the expression for the center-of-mass energy takes a different form depending on colliding particles.

Collision of Two Magnetized Particles
Using the equations of motion for magnetized particles (12)- (14) one may easily calculate the specific center-of-mass energy (E cm = E cm /(mc 2 )) of colliding two magnetized particles in the following form In Figure 9 we show the radial dependence of the center-of-mass energy of two colliding magnetized particles near the compact γ-object in the presence of an external asymptotically uniform magnetic field. One can see from Figure 9 that the center-of-mass energy increases with the increase of γ-parameter due to the increase of gravitational potential.

Collision of Magnetized and Charged Particles
In this subsection, we consider the collision of a magnetized particle with a charged one. The four-velocity of the charged particle can be found using the Lagrangian for the charged particle in curved spacetime in the presence of an electromagnetic field that has the following form where m, e, and u α (= dx α /dτ) are the rest mass, the electric charge, and the four-velocity of the particle, respectively. The energy and the angular momentum can be found by and the components of four-velocity of the charged particle take the following forṁ where ω B = eB/(2mc) is the cyclotron frequency of the charged particle in the uniform magnetic field B.
The expression for center-of-mass energy of colliding magnetized and charged particles takes the form In Figure 10 we show the radial dependence of the center-of-mass energy of collision of magnetized and charged particles near the compact γ-object in the presence of an external asymptotically uniform magnetic field. One can see that in the case of the collision of magnetized and positively charged particles the inner and outer collision points match to the area of stable circular orbits corresponding to the values of angular momentum l = 2M and parameter γ = 1.5. However, in the cases of γ = 1 and γ = 0.5 the inner position of the collisions comes close to the infinitely red-shifted surface r = 2M. In the case of both positively and negatively charged particles with magnetized particles, the particle collisions do take place at far distances from the compact object due to the Lorentz force. The Lorentz force becomes dominant at far distances and the magnetic field forces the charged particles to escape to infinity. Moreover, one can see that the maximum value of the center-of-mass energy decreases in the presence of both types of deformation cases corresponding to γ > 1 and γ < 1 due to the effect of γ-parameter on the external magnetic field near the BH (see [34] for the details).  Figure 10. The same figure as Figure 9, but for the collision of charged and magnetized particles. Left and right panels correspond to the collision of the magnetized particle with positively and negatively charged particles, respectively. In these plots we have taken the same values for the interaction parameters of charged and magnetized particles β = ω B = 0.5.

Collision of Magnetized and Neutral Particles
In this subsection, we investigate the collision of magnetized and neutral particles. The equation of motion for neutral particles can be written as followṡ The expression for center-of-mass energy of colliding magnetized and neutral particles takes the following form In Figure 11, we show the radial dependence of the center-of-mass energy of the collision of magnetized and neutral particles near the γ-compact object in the presence of an external asymptotically uniform magnetic field. One can see from Figure 11 that the center-of-mass energy increases with the increase of the value of γ-parameter. However, the maximum value of the energy decreases in both cases when γ > 1 and γ < 1. Moreover, the collisions take place near the infinitely red-shifted surface r = 2M, and at large distances, the Lorentz force causes the magnetized particles to escape to infinity.
In Figure 12, we have shown the relation of γ-parameter and the magnetized coupling parameter causing the increase of the center-of-mass energy to the values exceeding 10 6 mc 2 at the distance r = 3M (indicated with shaded area). The analysis shows that it requires large values of β parameter.

Summary and Discussions
In this work, we have investigated the dynamics of the magnetized particles and energetic processes, namely the acceleration process during the collision of magnetized and charged particles in close vicinity of the compact γ-object immersed in an external asymptotically-uniform magnetic field. One of the aims of this note is the motion of a highly magnetized neutron star treated as the test magnetized particle around the supermassive BH (SMBH). The neutron star treated as the magnetized test particle can interact with the magnetic field in SMBH environment, which causes to change of the characteristic radii, namely the ISCO radius of the magnetized neutron star in the SMBH environment. Due to this fact and its compactness, which decreases the tidal forces, the magnetized neutron star can orbit very near to the SMBH in comparison with observed S stars observed in infrared (IR) wavelength. The main results of the paper can be summarized as follows: • We have analyzed the magnetic coupling parameter being responsible for circular stable orbits at the given specific angular momentum and specific energy. It has been shown that the maximum value of the magnetic coupling parameter β does not depend on the value of γ-parameter. It is due to the fact that the Lorentz force dominates at the maximum values of the magnetic interaction parameter. Consequently, it is not sensitive to any value of γ-parameter.

•
It has also been shown that the minimum value of the specific energy corresponding to stable circular orbits of magnetized particles decreases with the increase of the value of γ-parameter due to the decreasing of the gravitational potential at γ > 1.

•
It has been obtained that the minimum value of the specific angular momentum corresponding to the extreme value of the magnetic coupling parameter causes a decrease in the distance between the innermost and outermost stable circular orbits. The magnetized particle's circular orbits can not be stable ones for the values β > 1. This may be helpful to predict that no magnetized neutron star can be observed in circular orbits in an environment of Sgr A* when the dipole magnetic field is greater than 5 × 10 14 Gauss.

•
We have studied the acceleration process in the collision of magnetized particles around compact objects in γ-spacetime. We have shown that the center-of-mass energy of collision of magnetized particles increases with the increase of the γ-parameter. • Finally, we have applied the obtained results to the real astrophysical scenario and shown distinguishable features of the three different geometries. Particularly, analyzing the ISCO radii of magnetized particles around Kerr, deformed γ-spacetime and Schwarzschild BH immersed in an asymptotically-uniform magnetic field. We have shown that the γ-parameter can mimic the spin parameter of Kerr BH a ≤ 0.85, while the magnetic coupling parameter β < 1 can mimic the γ-parameter for the range (0.5, 1) and the rotation parameter of Kerr BH a ≤ 0.3.
