Description

I will present certain results from a paper in preparation in which we discuss the motion of massive uncharged and charged test particles in space-times of electric and dyonic black holes which carry scalar hair. We will look at the stable and unstable circular orbits for both charged and uncharged particles, and aim to demonstrate how the presence of the scalar hair of the black hole changes the circular orbits, as compared to the Reissner-Nordström space-time.
