Schwarzschild spacetime in fractal dimensions: Deflection of light, supermassive black holes and temperature effects.

In this paper, we construct a Schwarzschild metric in the fractal dimension based on fractal calculus, and we study the deflection of light near the sun. It was observed that the new fractal spherically symmetric spacetime metric may describe supermassive black holes, which have been detected through various astronomical observations such as SDSS. We have discussed the deflection of light by the gravitational field of the sun. It was observed that the total deflection of light is affected by the fractal dimension. To estimate the numerical value of the fractal dimension, we have used the 2004analysis of almost 2 million VLBI observations of 541 radio sources made by 87 VLBI sites, which estimates the factor γ based on PNN formalism. It was observed that the fractal dimension is roughly less than unity. However, our analysis showed that large bending gravity gives fractal dimensions lower than unity to some extent. We also gave a naïve idea about the emission thermal Unruh process in fractal dimension. It was observed that both the temperature and the entropy of black holes are affected by the fractal dimension, and that for low numerical values, the entropy of the black hole is enhanced.
