QPOs and circular orbits around black holes in Chaplygin-like cold dark matter

Understanding the nature of dark energy in the universe is an actual issue in theoretical astrophysics and cosmology. One way to do it is by probing dark fluids with different equations of states (EoS). In the present work, we consider a Schwarzschild black hole (BH) surrounded by a dark fluid with a Chaplygin-like EoS as a generalized version of the Chaplygin EoS. We first investigate the effects of the dark fluid parameters on the horizon properties of the BH. The effective mass of the spacetime is calculated and analyzed under the dark fluid parameters. The scalar invariants of the BH spacetime are also calculated, and it is shown that the spacetime curvature increases as the dark fluid parameter increases. Next, we studied the circular motion of the test particle around the BH. As standard particle motion investigations, we analyze the effective potential of the particles for circular motion, specific energy, and angular corresponding to circular orbits with zero and nonvanishing values of the dark fluid intensity. In addition, we study the innermost stable circular orbits (ISCO). It is observed that there is an outermost stable circular orbit (OSCO) due to the presence of the dark fluid. It also shows that at a critical value of the dark fluid intensity parameter, ISCO and OSCO take the same radius. We calculate the frequency of Keplerian orbits and radial and vertical oscillations of the particles along stable circular orbits. We also applied orbital data from hotspots observed near Sgr A* to obtain upper and lower values for the EoS parameter. Finally, we investigate quasiperiodic oscillations and obtain the mass-to-EoS parameter relations for GRS J1915-105 and XTE 1550-564.
