Shadows and Photon Rings of Binary Black Holes
Abstract
We present the images of binary black holes (BHs) using the Majumdar-Papapetrou multi-BH solution, depending on the parameters of the problem: the BH masses, the distance between them, and the inclination of the observer. The images consist of shadows and photon rings. We find that a photon ring structure appears between the BHs. The trajectories of photons are calculated.
