This suggests that these black holes are plausible candidates for describing astrophysical black holes. As an additional observational test, we perform a detailed investigation of the strong deflection limit properties of these black holes. We explore the fundamental lensing observables in detail, including the angular positions and separations of the lensed images, the relative magnifications, the radius of the outermost Einstein ring, and the relativistic time delay between images. We compare the predictions of the quadratic gravity black hole for each observable with those of the classical Schwarzschild solution using realistic astrophysical data. Our findings provide a pathway for testing quadratic gravity at the galactic and extragalactic scales, offering new insights into the observational properties of black hole solutions within this framework.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54265,"journal":{"name":"Journal of High Energy Astrophysics","volume":"47 ","pages":"Article 100385"},"PeriodicalIF":10.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143843745","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
